Why am I not surprised?
In Ecclesiastes 2:2, the author complains that laughter is "madness", asking "what does it accomplish?"
Psalm 2:4 tells us that God, in heaven, laughs and scoffs at the kings of this earth "in derision".
Psalm 37:13 says the Lord laughs at the wicked, for "their day is coming".
But for the faithful, Genesis 21:6 tells us that laughter is an appropriate response to God's blessings, Job 8:21 promises laughter for those afflicted by Satan, and Psalm 126:2 says laughter is a sign to unbelieving nations that God has done great things for us.
As Christians, we should learn to laugh more.

Beats me. Because it does not tend to be prevalent, I suppose.
As Christians, we should learn to laugh more.
Agreed. The problem is that many who purport to be Christians are laughable, rather than funny...
