@Hey I think there is something to this. Some see humor, like intentional humor, in the gospels. For instance, Jesus walking across the water, so who gets out of the boat and tries walking to him? The apostle named rock, of course. And... that gently pokes fun, respectfully, at St. Peter while avoiding even friendly irreverence toward Jesus.

I recently bought a beautiful drawing of Jesus. It is pretty large. I was trying to put it into a frame which I had used for another project. The drawing is of Jesus smiling broadly. I love it. Anyway I was struggling to hammer the nails in the frame straight. Some were okay but the last one was really giving me a problem. I said to God "I really want to put this picture of you in my room! Help me out here! YOU were a carpenter!" I smiled as I said it with much love, affection and joy. Next thing, the nail went in perfectly. The drawing is next to my bed.

One afternoon my electricity went off in my house. I sort of panicked because I never had it go off since I moved there. I was thinking, "I hope it goes back on before it gets dark." So, Later on I thought," OK, I think I'll read the Bible for awhile while it's still light out. So, I asked God which book in the Bible He wanted me to read. He said start in Genesis. Which I thought was sort of odd. But, I started to read it Then I got the joke, when I got to Genesis 1:3 And God said, "Let there be light."

Went to Mass today and Fr. told a joke in his homily. Jesus was walking through the streets of Heaven and He noticed people in the streets who were not supposed to be there. He went to see St. Peter at the gate. "Peter you are slacking off, letting the wrong people into Heaven." "It's not me Lord. I sent them away like you told me to, but then they go around the back way and Your Mother lets them in." (He told it to illustrate Our Lady's desire for our salvation.)

I KNOW God has a sense of humor because He'll often joke with me when I'm talking to Him. Usually I'll be in my car, just telling God my problems, and He'll often respond to me in the form of a Christian radio host talking about a certain subject, sending me a sign that relates to something I'm dealing with, or sometimes I'll just hear His still, quiet voice in the back of my mind, giving me direct counsel- sometimes He'll even completely roast me or crack a joke at my expense. One of these times I was talking to God about my own downfalls and frustrations- I don't remember the exact details- and immediately a meme popped into the back of my mind- the one of Michael Jordan saying, "Stop it. Get some help." It felt very much like God sent that vision to me and it made me laugh out loud, because in context to the conversation I was having with Him, it worked well and I didn't see it coming. I'm sure I sound crazy to some but to this day I swear God sent me that meme. x'D

A good message Fr Mike , shaking things up a bit , sometimes we as believers can look like we’ve been baptised in lemon juice , and one wonders were the fruits of the spirit have gone . Joy and laughter manifested by our carnal mind , by way of our flesh are always created at a cost to others , including those around us receiving it , our flesh tends to TAKE to receive joy . The Spirit of life SUPPLIES us with all joy through the love of Christ Jesus flowing out of us , and the laughter and happiness manifested becomes your shining light giving others the love you’ve received , to God be the glory. Galatians 5:22-23 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Know your Identity in Christ Jesus and keep your eyes on him , and you won’t sink Mathew 14 v 22 to 33.

God must have been that stoic ten times over. It is a big leap to think that God would hold that sin against Jesus and Jesus knew it. Thank you for your teaching. I appreciate you.

I always thought of that as more of an anecdote rather than a true joke. One of my favorites A very religious man was once caught in rising floodwaters. He climbed onto the roof of his house and trusted God to rescue him. A neighbour came by in a canoe and said, “The waters will soon be above your house. Hop in and we’ll paddle to safety.” “No thanks” replied the religious man. “I’ve prayed to God and I’m sure he will save me” A short time later the police came by in a boat. “The waters will soon be above your house. Hop in and we’ll take you to safety.” “No thanks” replied the religious man. “I’ve prayed to God and I’m sure he will save me” A little time later a rescue services helicopter hovered overhead, let down a rope ladder and said. “The waters will soon be above your house. Climb the ladder and we’ll fly you to safety.” “No thanks” replied the religious man. “I’ve prayed to God and I’m sure he will save me” All this time the floodwaters continued to rise, until soon they reached above the roof and the religious man drowned. When he arrived at heaven he demanded an audience with God. Ushered into God’s throne room he said, “Lord, why am I here in heaven? I prayed for you to save me, I trusted you to save me from that flood.” “Yes you did my child” replied the Lord. “And I sent you a canoe, a boat and a helicopter. But you never got in.”

Throughout my life, occasionally when I’m in deep doubt, God will speak to me in the most ironic humor. As in, once in adoration, consulting a friend about spiritual restlessness, the *exact* line from “Your Grace is Enough” (another friend had Christian contemporary playing on her phone) played as follows: “You bring rest to the sinner’s restless heart…” (paraphrased, it’s been awhile since I’ve heard the song) Or, at least, that’s the example that comes to mind when I think of God’s sense of humor. Coincidence? Maybe. God working hands-on? Most likely.

The problem is that Seth MacFarlane is a pretty militant atheist and I have a feeling that those "jokes" (Family Guy hasn't been funny since the first season IMO, back when they weren't out to shock and before MacFarlane discovered he was basically cancellation-proof) are meant to come from a very mean-spirited place against religion.

This is why it no longer can speak profoundly, it rebels against Wisdom, so it spirals in raunchy, irreverent and disrespectful, ignorance. It is also reviled by many seeking depth and real meaning in media as a result. I would call it cursed.

I did not allow that program you mentioned in my house, it was so cute my daughter would tell on her dad & I would say well you know what to do then. She would change the channel, or turn the TV off. 👏😀

I respect a man so much more if he can take a joke, the same goes for God

Maybe we could all use a reminder that He is to be feared, especially if our love is failing.
