Top Ten Reasons to Be Episcopalian/Anglican

I found the following over at a New Zealand liturgy site. I'm not Episcopalian, but, as a United Methodist, it made me smile as well. United Methodists have a reputation of being a pretty diverse lot and #1 on the list sure seems to ring true.
Top 10 Reasons to be an Episcopalian/Anglican (from the comedian Robin Williams, who is an Episcopalian, on an HBO special)

10. No snake handling.
9. You can believe in dinosaurs.
8. Male and female God created them; male and female we ordain them.
7. You don't have to check your brains at the door.
6. Pew aerobics.
5. Church year is color-coded.
4. Free wine on Sunday.
3. All of the pageantry - none of the guilt.
2. You don't have to know how to swim to get baptized.

And the Number One reason to be an Episcopalian:

1. No matter what you believe, there's bound to be at least one other Episcopalian who agrees with you.
