I think ur heart is in the right place but u r scripturally way off base. Nothing good can come from sarcasm. It has ben ripping my marriage apart for years. I think Christ used satire...sarcasm however no!katienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-15212667681700905372012-07-05T15:11:39.067-07:002012-07-05T15:11:39.067-07:00I'd say be careful. using sarcasm in defense i...I'd say be careful. using sarcasm in defense is much more justifiable than using it as an attack.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-50946239287865546352012-06-21T07:48:21.886-07:002012-06-21T07:48:21.886-07:00Thank you for posting this!

All of my friends, family and most of the people I fellowship with are sarcastic. My pastor is hilarious in his wit. I should not be made to feel bad for my personality type. I appreciate all of the comments.Jeannie's Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17126096402396510460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-76232160612752994062012-04-23T17:38:31.676-07:002012-04-23T17:38:31.676-07:00I Also came across your post through google, as la...I Also came across your post through google, as late as I am, obviously. I wanted to say something about how you said you tell little white lies and until sarcasm becomes the eleventh commandment, you'll keep doing so. Lying and being sarcastic are nowhere near the same. The bible tells us not to be simple and needless to say, simple-minded (foolish). So sarcasm is more along the lines with an individual such as the Almighty who is intelligent and wise. I too love to be sarcastic, which actually stands as an issue because I tell jokes and other people just figure I'm simple but majority of the time, they just didn't catch the joke. Anyways, lying is not ok and I'm sure you know that. Sarcasm, as I found, should be shared among people who have an understanding about one anothers' sense of humor. And going back to how you didn't understand why the minister called it unsafe, it's because, without these two people knowing the depth of one another's sense of humor, it can be confusing to know what truth is being tossed out you as a joke and what really was nothing more than a joke. For example, if my insecurity bugs me, and I ask my spouse if he cheated being that he was gone all day and I just want to know, he could respond by saying, "yeah, with a girl who looks like Naomi Campbell".... It's unsafe because it could be sarcasm and nothing more than a joke but at the same time, he could have been telling me the truth and said it as a joke so that I wouldn't think much of it, and say I find that he was unfaithful... now all trust is ruined and the dynamic of our entire relationship.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-58521054260380836362011-05-07T06:57:39.925-07:002011-05-07T06:57:39.925-07:00I think you have to be careful with sarcasm.

Sometimes, for example, someone may ask a serious question, and a very ugly, sarcastic answer is given, making the one who asked the question feel belittled. I think that's when sarcasm is bad. Like any words, if it's used, should be used in a friendly, humorous manner, not to belittle others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-90470108045072901022011-02-07T12:31:13.385-08:002011-02-07T12:31:13.385-08:00Thank you so much for posting this!Thank you so much for posting this!Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343080544947614491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-32628307783343257582010-11-05T12:36:49.778-07:002010-11-05T12:36:49.778-07:00Let's not forget about Job.

I am pretty sarcastic myself and have often wondered what God thought of my sarcastic sense of humor but i think this passage does a pretty good job of letting us know we're good. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5295871696739737161.post-24462898367059970882010-04-28T05:53:56.801-07:002010-04-28T05:53:56.801-07:00nice post!
