Answer 5

I don't think this is true. Non belief in God adds nothing to a person.

No matter how many times someone says it.

Answer 6

I think this is only in terms of talking about religion. And it's because atheists think religion ITSELF is one big joke, Christians don't.

Answer 7

Cos we have no FEAR of any type of invisible magician who swoops about in the sky.

This gives us the ability to point and laugh at many more things than fundie.

Answer 8

Because we're independent thinkers. That somehow has to do with our sense of humor.

And I guess a lot of our jokes revolve around how fricken hilarious Christianity is.

Answer 9

It's the same thing as  with music.  Christian rock?? yikes!

Answer 10

On account like of them all going to be h**l bound laughin and such all the way to the eternal tormentin and the like.

Answer 11

From a pagan point of view, tragedy is funnier then hugs. ^^

Having a group around to support you nonstop happily, makes you unprepared for the situation where you encounter a group that disagrees with you.

Living where you're pretty much attacked for speaking your mind, makes a person much more lenient when they are in a situation where they must deal with people with different points of view.

Christians are organized, and do not deal well with disagreement.  I don't think I've ever met an atheist that hasn't been oppressed at one time or another.

Answer 12

Life is too short to be serious about anything

Answer 13

In christianity; blasphemy is an unforgivable sin...

lol.

I don't blame them for resisting the urge to laugh at christians jokes.

Answer 14

Oh "GOD" Yes!!!

Answer 15

Because, where humour is concerned, Christians can be split into two groups -

1: Those who regard humour as sinful, because laughter is a sign of enjoying life, and we're not supposed to enjoy life.  Besides, are there any references in the Bible to Jesus having a joke with his mates?

2: Those who like a good laugh as much as anyone else, as long as it's a polite laugh.

Neither of those attitudes make for particularly good comedy.  

Answer 16

It may be that those that have a higher purpose, the funny bone is replaced by the spiritual bone. It seems to be a tunnel version of all purpose.
