Does God have a sense of humour?

Thought I’d start a less ‘serious’ thread. What does the bible say? Does it imply that God may have a less serious side? Can God find things comical or funny?

If yes, would he ever play pranks on people?

If no, why not? Would this mean man kind has a skill that God can never have?

Can a true God have a sense of humour or would it undermine his/her/its 'higher status'?

Ahh yes !

I suspect as we laugh with and at each other... so does God. Maybe humor is a natural byproduct of self awareness, it can be no other way

If there is a GOD as we see it. Then he has to have a sense of humor seeing that I beleive religions to be a joke.

Picture this GOd going around to different nations calling himself by different names in each one then sitting back and watching them war over which name is the correct one.

Isn't that HILARIOUS

Well, if you subscribe to the idea of Christianity, you could argue that the entire fiasco with the dinosaur fossils is just a tremendous joke.
