I was trying to think of some good baptist ones but can't remember any. Dave has some funny ones though.

You Know You Might Be Lutheran if...

...in response to someone jumping up and shouting "Praise the Lord!", you politely remind him that we don't do that around here.

...you make change for a ten in the offering plate.

...you think butter is a spice.

...you think hotdish is one of the major food groups.

...your five-year-old recites the Old Testament books as Genesis, Exodus, Lutefisk...

...you hear something really funny and smile as loud as you can.

.. you pronounce the word Lutheran "Lutern."

...you have more than five flavors of Jell-O in your pantry.

...your congregation's first two operating rules are "Don't change" and "Don't spend."

...you're 57 years old and your parents still won't let you date a Catholic.

...you are referred to as the frozen chosen.

...everyone in your family graduated from a school named Concordia.

...Ole and Lena are really the names of your relatives.
