is god funny? does he like a laugh? did he put any humor in the bible or is it all serious from beginning to end. has anybody found a passage that is light hearted (on purpose).
we know god shows love, does this mean he shows other human emotions? which ones? all of them or just the good ones? do we think feels sadness? anger? jealousy? the old testament seems to say yes.

Originally posted by stellspalfieAt the level of what a theist will call a personal God, yes, God can be humorous, vengeful, jealous, loving whatever human characteristics you want to assign to him.

We are not talking here of the Ultimate Reality or Brahman etc.
So you can build your own God and play with him.
Humanity did that for hundreds --if not thousands-- of years, e.g. the Greek gods.

God: C'mon, Job, I was just fvcking with you.
Job: You really got me good, I admit.
Then they laughed and had a beer together. It's just how guys like to solve problems.

god: "it was a joke abe, just a bit of fun......................but dude, your own son? whats fvcking wrong with you abe, that is seriously fvcked up?"

Jesus [standing on water]: "Get a move on, Peter!"
Peter [sinking]: "Uhh, I can't seem to walk anymore..."
Jesus: "Are you kidding me? You can't even swim. From now on we'll call you 'rock' because you sink like a stone!"
Disciples [laughing]: "Float, Rocky, Float!"
Noah: "Report!"
Shem: "Dad, it's a mess. The pig got loose and was eating the other animals' food. We had to temporarily reverse course to catch a bird that flew off. The Grizzly Bear has been acting out. We held hands and said a prayer together, and that calmed him down for a few minutes, but then he started up again. The lift malfunctioned and dumped a raw load of animal sh it over several pens and the cleanup took hours. And we've lost track of the damn Chameleon."
