Spiritual Humor
Laughter as Medicine

It is said that young children laugh as much as 100 to 200 times a day, compared to a large majority of adults who only get around 2 to 12 daily laughs. Laughter is good not only for the body but also the soul.

So: given the “license to laugh,” enjoy the following large selection of fun material, including humorous spiritual stories I’ve heard and read over the years, and various jokes and quips sent to me by friends from among the vast collection circulating in the ether and cyber-ether.

It’s interesting how my Jewish friends send Jewish humor, my Protestant friends send Protestant humor, Catholic friends send Catholic humor, Zen friends send Zen humor…

This one made me laugh:

Two men meet on the street: “How are you?” one asks.
The other replies: “I’m fine, thanks.”
“And how’s your son? Is he still unemployed?”
“Yes, he is. But he is meditating now.”
“Meditating? What’s that?”
“I don’t know. But it’s better than sitting around doing nothing!”
