“God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh”
- Voltaire –
Most great thinkers think that if god exists then he must have had a sense of humor. I think we take god far to seriously...

God is a Creator, nature has comedic scenes, if you can find humor in things then you can count yourself blessed for some people only think negative things.
To make someone smile is to help to heal that person, for there is no greater remedy than to laugh out loud, you experience a sense of well being, when you see something beautiful like a child you smile, automatic for me, God wants our happiness above all else it is the choices we make that holds us back we do have free choice, I choose to laugh and smile and it is contagious and causes people to smile back. Big smiley face at you.

can you believe some here basically calling Voltaire a fool? What idiotic morons! The smug condescension of these idiots never ceases to amaze me. Lord help them. No wonder they're devoted to an invisible sky God.

Most people don't hear God because they aren't listening.
God is loud.... look what he did to the red sea. God expresses what he feels. When God is happy, he smiles and laughs.
God's feelings is greater than ours, his compass to hurt or love is greater than ours.
Jesus in heaven laughs because of some of the silly questions the children ask him in heaven.
Jesus is a preacher in heaven he shouts
of course you know Jesus is God?
Jesus walks into God and back out to walk upon his people in heaven.
God uses different voices, he can talk to you with your voice.
I know a woman whom died when she was a young girl, and she met Jesus in heaven, she said to Jesus, "I didn't know your arms were that hairy" Jesus just laughed......lol
inteleyes...... peace be with you!

I believe that many people during Voltaire's day smoked opium and somehow were thought of as great thinkers. Never understood why.
God is serious. He is also merciful. Proof of that is that you woke up today and can read and write with little difficuty.

Well, *I* (for one) agree that God DOES exist and that He DOES have a great sense of humor.

Great quote.
For something that can't even be proven to exist, people take it WAY to seriously.

16:83 They recognise the favours of God. then they deny them; and most of them are (creatures) ungrateful.
