Humor differs among people and civilizations. You may shut off Funny Home Videos to watch a scary or blockbuster film. But should you picture God applauding you for your superior sense of humour? As men and women, when we think of humour, we enter a broad mental space: jokes, laughter, pleasure, ridicule, irony, wit, mockery, jest, parody, satire, slapstick, buffoonery, farces, folly, the comic, and the ludicrous. We think of laughter, jokes, farces, and irony as expressions of a sense of humour; we view parody and satire written or spoken as products of a person's sense of humour; and we accept the comic, the absurd, and folly as (often excellent) occasions for expressing one's sense of humour. All theologians agree that God is different from us.
