Hence the Days of Noah in Luke 17:26-27
Though the scoffing and the mocking wasn’t directly mentioned, as we all know, it certainly happened in Noah’s Day.
Luke 17:26-27
King James Version
26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

Since human nature hasn’t changed, I’m going to presume that they reacted then same as we are seeing today.
