As many of you may know, I was recently confirmed in an Episcopal church. It’s been an interesting journey getting to this place, and I have found that Episcopalians are a very interesting bunch – and for the most part, we have a good sense of humor.

With that in mind, here are some humorous (but also somewhat truthful) signs of Episcopalians (this list will be continually updated). While identification is never certain, you might be Episcopalian if:

1). You love processionals.

2). You have no problem with same-sex marriage, but the slightest deviation from the Book of Common Prayer is an unthinkable heresy.

3). You recite the Nicene Creed every week, but you do it with your fingers crossed.

4). You’ve ever made the sign of the cross before downing a shot of whiskey.

5). You believe Jesus is really present in the Eucharist, but aren’t so rash as to try to explain how.

6). You love the Roman Catholic liturgy, but don’t want to be told what to believe.

7). You love the Eastern Orthodox liturgy, but need to be on the golf course by noon.

8). You think Robin Williams should be canonized as a saint.

9). You’ve ever prayed for world peace and the success of the U.S. military in the same breath.

10). You respond to every compliment with “and also with you.”

11). You’ve ever made change in the offering plate.

12). You’re too liberal to be Catholic, but love Mary too much to be Protestant.

13). You’re proud to be an American, but also love all things British.

14). You believe that hell is “eternal death,” but have no idea what the hell that means.

15). You know that the idea of purgatory is “repugnant to the word of God,” but you believe in it anyways.

16). You know that the idea of reincarnation is a heresy, but you believe in it anyways.

17). You’re a universalist, but most definitely not a Unitarian.

18). You’re proud to be part of a denomination that includes both liberals and conservatives, Republicans and Democrats, charismatics and traditionalists, mystics and social activists, and people from all walks of life – all united under the banner of Christ.
