So, about God.

[Mirage]

Presuming he exists, Does he have a sense of humour?

I say yes.

[Anaisa]

I say no.

[Little Blue]

I say he has a very eloquent grasp of irony and sarcasm, and uses them both to satisfy his sense of humour. Why else would chocolate be bad for you...

[Owen Macwere]

I say no too. God is more pure than such stuff.

[Mithos]

My boyfriend of 2 years just broke up with me without giving me a reason.

If there were a God, he'd have a sadistic sense of humor.

[Bunny]

Yes.

Case in point: Alabama.

(No offense Alabamians...Alabamers? People who live in the state of Alabama.)

[theundeadhero]

I would hope so.

[JKTrix]

Yes. Otherwise, we'd have all been smite'd long ago. I'm sure everyone says "OH MY GOD" for no reason it gets on his nerves, but he can just laugh it off.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Yes. Look at the platypus.

[Mirage]

I say no too. God is more pure than such stuff.
Why not? He made man in his image, humans have humour. Furthermore, he seems to be able to show a lot of other emotions (just look at the OT), why not humour?

Was it Gods fault that your boyfriend broke up with you? ;_;

[Vermachtnis]

Yes. Look at the platypus.

That is excatally what I was going to say. Other then the playpus, look where he stuck the male's weakpoint.

If God didn't have a since of humour she would have killed me a while ago.

[Chemical]

The poem I coincidentally just read speaks to me of this debate;
It's a true testament to how we try to explain the beauties of the world;
when essentially the appreciation is but the same.

IN EACH HIS OWN TONGUE

A first-mist and a planet,--
A crystal and a cell,--
A jelly-fish and a saurian,
And caves where the cave-men dwell;
Then a sense of law and beauty,
And a face turned from the clod,--
Some call it Evolution,
And others call it God.

A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky,
The ripe, rich tint of the cornfields,
And the wild geese sailing high,--
And all over the upland and lowland
The charm of the goldenrod,--
Some of us call it Autumn,
And others call it God.

Like tides on a crescent sea-beach,
When the moon is new and thin,
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come welling and surging in,--
Come from the mystic ocean
Whose rim no foot has trod,--
Some of us call it longing,
And others call it God.

A picket frozen on duty,--
A mother starved for her brood,--
Socrates drinking the hemlock,
And Jesus on the rood;
And millions who, humble and nameless,
The straight, hard pathways plod,--
Some call it Consecration,
And others call it God.

Anyways I wouldn't say "God" as I firmly believe man lacks the understanding and vocabulary to describe my belief and anything I could possibly state would be misconstrued and slandered by deffinition and meaning.

[snacks]

He's gotta have a sense of humor!
^ ^

I'm in the past 8 months I've been robbed, taken for granted, shoved inbetween a huge "war" of my other halfs step parents, no job, no money...

He sure has me laughing..heh heh...heh.

o o;

[Owen Macwere]

Why not? He made man in his image, humans have humour. Furthermore, he seems to be able to show a lot of other emotions (just look at the OT), why not humour?

Men (humans) are not as the image of God. he created them not to be like him but to be the symbols of his powers.
I sometimes might think that God have sense of homour by putting people in trouble and then get them out of it or keep them stuck in it. But, I still can't believe that he is enjoying what is happening to us, he created us to be happy not to be sad.
Also, may be that's just what I believe, but I do take life as a task that should be completed.

[Tavrobel]

Umm, yes. Story of Job, please, for the win. First Creation story in Genesis, God was randomly sticking pieces of mud together and bringing them to life to see what he could get. God gambles with the Devil. God appears as a burning bush.

If God had less of a sense of humor, there'd be no way that anyone would be talking right now, you sinners.

[Yamaneko]

Blasphemous rumours... all of it!

[mooglebunni608]

I should hope so, or I'm in a LOT of trouble when I become dead.

[LunarWeaver]

I think he does because he made Lord Xenu and that's good times.

[ff7+ff10 gurl 100]

I really hope so. Cause if not, I'm in biiiiiiiiiggg trouble...

[The Summoner of Leviathan]

If we are talking Judeo-Christian God, well he is omniscient and omnipotent or so they say, so I assume he would have one.

[BizarroSephiroth]

Well God did create the "sense of humor" so he must have one himself if we are all made in his likeness, right?

[Savern Volaco]

no God. Hail one known as the OverLord:[unknown name here] all bow to his might my master says that you will die by being hanged by your fingernails, Very painful death I might add. then he will hang you by your toenails...I will enjoy the show.

[edczxcvbnm]

Of course God exists. GOD posted on this forum for a while then changed names to Hoorj or something...then was banned for being too awesome...or something.

[BardTard]

A sick and twisted sense of humor, yes.

[Necronopticous]

I think there is like, a force. I mean, I don't know if God is this old guy on a throne with a big white beard...Really, God could be anything. He could be like, this post.

[LoveArya]

It doesnt matter if he has a sense of humor. God exists, and thats the one thing that i believe in more than anything. Many other people believe in him 2. Hes here, watching everyone

[oddler]

Some people in this thread are making me laugh right now.

[Jojee]

It doesnt matter if he has a sense of humor. God exists, and thats the one thing that i believe in more than anything. Many other people believe in him 2. Hes here, watching everyone

:shifty: :sweat:

He's watcing you.

[Rusty]

He totally does xD

[LoveArya]

I know hes watching me, and ive got nothing to hide from him

[Bunny]

God = Santa?

[oddler]

God = Santa?

You win. Almost.

See, that was funny.

[Mirage]

This is a thread on whether or not God has a sense or humour, it isn't a thread on whether or not he exists.

It it degenerates to a thread about his existence, I'm going to be very sad.

[oddler]

The platypus remark was the high point.

[LoveArya]

Mirage, in that case, i guess he has a sense of humor.

[Shoeberto]

I really just looked through this thread to see how quickly the Dogma reference was made.

[Ryushikaze]

Assuming god exists... which one?

Assuming it's yours... Is your dogma accurate?

What if the christian bible is nothing more than an elaborate prank as perpetrated by Thor and Loki, both of whom are having a right good chuckle at your expense right now?

[Mirage]

Initially assuming the Christian god, but I don't care. Use whichever god you want.
Tbh, I don't have a god, this is an entirely hypothetical question.

[sephirothishere]

god is very funny...jsu look at the sloth...or indeed the playpus...or the eoff album..soem very funny lookin people in there....

[Lawr]

Blasphemous rumours... all of it!

There you go! :)

[Vikeve]

I sure hope so.

Its funny ive actually been thinking about that lately and hoping that he does.

[Dr Unne]

Humor is a sin. Sorry.

[Madame Adequate]

Of course he does!

Look at Lot and his daughters' drunken incest. What a riot!!

[Christmas]

God (http://forums.eyesonff.com/member.php?u=15053) was banned. :(

[Firo Volondé]

Read Exodus. God says he's going to free his people, but instead makes them walk around in the desert for 40 years. Israelites = pwned.

[Giga Guess]

Just look at a platypus, and tell me he doesn't.

[Bunny]

God (http://forums.eyesonff.com/member.php?u=15053) was banned. :(

Nobody understood his sense of humor. :(

[Dante WolfWood]

God has a sense of humor


OJ got away, didnt he? :p

But I can say the bible does state we are in likeness in him so; we have emotions; so does he. Humor/sarcasm is some kind of happiness I guess...

So I would say yeah, he does.


edit: the "we have emotions; so does he" statement makes it sound like he mimics us....switch it around and you'll ge the point... :D

[Mittopotahis]

I remember a while ago there was a Melbourne comedy festival gala special on 'Does God have a sense of humour'. I don't remember much of it.... It was a debate with comedians. I think the against team won, ending with "Anyway, if we don't win, which we won't, it just goes to show that the Man up there can't take a joke, and therefore doesn't have a sense of humour."

Personally, I think he does. One thing that always makes me laugh in the bible is the time when Jesus comes across a possessed man. Jesus expels the demon from the man, called 'Legion'. The demon begged for Jesus not to send him far away. Jesus sent the demon into a nearby herd of 2000 pigs, which then ran down a hill into a lake and drowned.

Gets me everytime! xDDD

[Cz]

If God didn't have a sense of humour, then heaven would be a huge let-down. Besides, for an omnipotent being to be incapable of writing a good limerick just wouldn't make any sense.

[Jebus]

"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh." -Voltaire.

*nods*

If god exists, s/he definitely has a sense of humor. And a pretty good one, but everyone's too serious/scared to laugh.

[theundeadhero]

Nobody understood his sense of humor.Yeah, nobody understood my sense of humor. Especially the staff :(

[Breine]

I say no. Remember the Flood?

[Quindiana Jones]

He's a right practical joker.

[Rosenti]

heheheh this thread cracks me up, finally a thread about god where people arent trying to convince eachother of their beilefs.

I say yes! god has a sense of humour! :D

[Quindiana Jones]

Anyone who posts in here saying anything other than "God doesn't exist" clearly doesn't believe in God. If we're all Christians, why would we try to convince each other that Christianity is correct?

LOL.

[Sergeant Hartman]

He told me this joke the other day.

[Spatvark]

He's either an utterly hilarious sadist, or the most crazy ass fuck that ever existed. I can kinda see Garth Ennis' logic behind Preacher.

[Lawr]

I say no. Remember the Flood?

People dying isn't humorous...to me.

[Mirage]

Might have been to him! We're just his barbie dolls anyway. :]

[Quindiana Jones]

I don't remember being molested by God.

[Mirage]

Maybe you're not his favourite barbie doll? :(

[Quindiana Jones]

Don't be silly. :bigsmile:

[Owen Macwere]

You are?.

[Quindiana Jones]

What the hell is going on around here?

[Vermachtnis]

Hey if we were God's Barbie Dolls why hasn't her older brother attacked us with Optimus Prime yet?

[Quindiana Jones]

God's a bloke silly.

Because God zaps anyone who tries.

[Breine]

I say no. Remember the Flood?

People dying isn't humorous...to me.

...which is why he has no sense of humour.

[Quindiana Jones]

I think God found it funny.

[KentaRawr!]

Of course he does! Look at how mean he is to those SIMs! :p

[Madame Adequate]

Of course he does! Look at how mean he is to those SIMs! :p

xDDD! Given how cruel we are to Sims, maybe God sees us the same way.

In which case, and let us be honest about this, God has a brilliant sense of humor.

[Lawr]

Lol. I make houses lined with fireplaces and couches and place families in there just to burn 'em. Maybe cause Humans weren't meant to be in any god-like position. With our impure minds, and too many people mistaken a sense of humour as a sense of mercy.
