Talk:Mystery:Does God Have a Sense of Humor? (view source)
Revision as of 14:40, March 21, 2012
, 14:40, March 21, 2012→I don't think it is a mystery of whether or not God has a sense of humor: not amused
::There are other reasons to laugh than humor, though. This sounds more like a laugh of defiance.--[[User:CPalmer|CPalmer]] 11:43, 13 March 2012 (EDT)

:::CPalmer, I realize there are multiple definitions of the word [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/defy?s=t defy], but in most cases it means challenge the authority of. God is the ultimate being in terms of power so to speak of God being defiant seems odd. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 00:58, 17 March 2012 (EDT)

::::Challenging authority, exactly. That is what the passage is about - the worldly leaders are sure of their own authority, but God rejects it with a laugh. I don't think God is amused - He just wants to show His scorn for those who set themselves against Him.--[[User:CPalmer|CPalmer]] 10:40, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
