Because they're poor and stupid. Math is hard for Pentecostals, and since they know at least enough not to take off their shoes and socks in a restaurant, they only have ten fingers to count on.

What do you mean? Gifts were poured out at Pentecost. Seriously, a lot of Pentecostal people are far from wealthy, and don't splurge in anything. I'm Baptist. Us too. If you want people who don't, to tip big, show appreciation for any size gift, and look for ways to increase service, such as lots of smiles and sincere interest in them.

I would be surprised if many Pentacostals ate out anyway. They are pretty much an inward turning people that have a tendency to shut out the outside world.
In the event that they do eat out and tip very little is because they are a frugal people and don't "throw money around". This being said, one might consider poor service as a reason. I don't tip if the service is bad and I will say so if pressed. I have seen wait people that only showed up at your table to bring you the bill and to look for tips as soon as you get up. They get nothing from me.

Why do you say this? Alot of people do not tip and some of all faiths. Some pentecostals and other people don't tip because of poor service. We should always tip though it shows good character.

Maybe more penecostals are, on average, more poor. Maybe that is because God saves more poor people than rich people. After all, Jesus said it is harder for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Really I don't know. That is just a guess.

Because they put most of their money in the collection plate? They (the devout) go to church quite often, and if they go out to eat after every service, maybe they are just too broke.

HOW do you know that the bad tippers are Pentecostal?

maybe because in the King James version Bible. God asks for 10% of what you get . i think it is an issue of giving more in tips than to Church and God.
