Do religious folks have a sense of humor??

The Christians, Muslims, Jews I meet seem intense. The Mormons and Jehovah's that come to the door are serious, intense. Happy -go- lucky folks suddenly become dangerous when the word "God" is mentioned. When I see the Jehovah's at the do-nut shop I say to them, "Are you happy?" They reply,"Yes"


I say," Then notify your face!"

Do religious folks have a sense of humor??
I think it's an age thing more than a religious thing. Some older people tend to seem more religious and seem to have less humor in their life.
Reply:I have seen some religious people here with incredibly good senses of humor, like Ramjet, Uncle Wayne, Bonsai Bobby and others. I love seeing their questions and answers. Other religious people, not so much....
Reply:No. I have absolutely no sense of humor. I was raised with the "Quaker meeting has begun; no more laughing, no more fun. If you dare to crack a smile, you will have to walk a mile" thing. Jesus hated laughter and punishes those who don't.





JUST KIDDING! I am a Christian and I think that my sense of humor is one of the greatest gifts I have. I love to laugh and smile, and so do all my Christian friends. Yeah, like you, I've seen people that claim happiness but they look so down. True, I'm not happy all the time. But I have joy that Jesus has given me (that sounds stupid but it's true!), which pulls me through anything. I LOVE being a Chrisitan and I wish that everyone else could have this joy!
Reply:You're not being nice.


It's not cool to ridicule people.





I have a sense of humor.


I'm happy and lucky because of God.





I think you might try to MAKE them happy. Tell a joke. Give them a compliment. Make their day!
Reply:I'm a christian (14) and everything i say is a joke so i have a huge sense of humor lol
Reply:The Mormons are already scared of me in my neighborhood, so they never look happy when they see my smiling face.
Reply:what.? lol i dont get it.
Reply:most do there may be some that dont but thats the same with non religious too. I know plenty of religious people that love to joke aorund and have fun they are great people.
Reply:Of course religious folks have a sense of humor! I have had the pleasure of attending the sermons of some very humorous pastors--Rev. Lawrence Herbert and Rev. J. D. Phillips in Houston, Texas.





Humor is a great teaching tool, and it's just plain fun. It's also a sign that the person you're talking with has a balanced and relaxed view of religion. The overly intense people should be avoided. Some of them can be dangerous, and they are NOT the mainstream of any religion.
Reply:No it's a sin to laugh and have fun, DEVILS WORK I TELLS YA!
Reply:You have to have a sense of humor, faced with some of the very rude remarks made...by the way.


Who was the shortest man in the Bible?





Answer: Knee-high Miah ( Nehemiah)
Reply:YES! well, I can speak for myself. I am a hyper, smiling, laughing, jovial person (so I am told) There is joy in everything I do. I love to joke and laugh and see others happy, and it is one of my many goals to make everyone I come in contact with happy, if just for a moment.


God has an awesome sense of humor, why shouldn't we?!
Reply:For the most part, no.
