And also, how can we make joke/fun of each other and still not getting offended by them? I think some people are just too serious! It just takes away all the fun... don't you think so?

Start by sharing a funny but acceptable joke from your own religion. Lots of people do this. I even know extremely religious people who laugh at a good religious joke every now and then. I have even seen on the news and in some magazine articles that some Muslim and Islamic people were becoming stand up comics and told jokes about their own religion and the others of the same faith in their audience, also laughed at the religious jokes. With luck, this attitude will spread!
Take care,
Brax

Well, I wouldnt said share but to respect. If we respect each other religion then you are indirectly sharing it with open mind without feeling offended. I guess the way the conversation being carried out does not deliberately offending to the listeners then it is just another way of discussion. Period.

Okay, here goes a couple of my favorite "religion" jokes....
Q: How many Lutherans does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Change??? CHANGE??? WHY do you want to CHANGE???
A priest, a rabbi, and a minister were at a conference, and they were comparing how the offerings were handled in their congregations. The priest said, "Well, I take a vow of poverty, so it all goes to the church and I am given a stipend for my expenses." The minister said, "Well, we believe in tithing, so I retain 10% of the offerings for my living expenses, and the rest goes to the church." They turned to the rabbi, and the rabbi then said, "Well, I take the offering plate, take it to the altar, and then TOSS IT ALL up into the air. What stays UP is God's... what comes down is mine."
====> No "offense" to anyone out there we hope... those who have a sense of humor!

Stop persecuting other for having different beliefs and lifestyles.
Being offended is a choice one makes, often not a conscious choice, but it is a choice, nonetheless.
Many people are so "serious" because they believe they are important, as is what they believe and what they do.
some people actually beieve that "fun" and having "fun" is a sin.
But it is a terrible shame and waste of human kindness to hate.

you can share all the goodness of all religions unfortunatly to many religious people will not be opened minded enough to accept the goodness. instead they will tell you how wrong you are and how stupid you are being for believing the way you do. sorry but i have been on here for about three months now and from what i have witnessed that is the cold truth of this catagory in this forum.

People need to start by admitting that their own religion could just possibly be wrong about something.

Well
A priest was visiting to a doctor regularly and never saw him (the doctor) on suday church so he asked him why so the doctors reply was
Father try to keep me away from the hell I'll try to keep you away from the heaven.

Find the goodness of religions and then post your question.

You are right and you can be sure that in the Islamic countries they can't do or say things like is done in here.

we should be more preoccupied with how to keep your kind from drowning and from the brink of extinction
