Not long ago, I heard a definition for "blasphemy". The person said something like 'Blasphemy is saying something about an omniscient, all-powerful supreme being that hurts its feelings.' That person happened to be a devout Christian, and was saying it humorously, but sometimes humor does bring to light certain truths, ironies, contradictions, and food for thought.

No, but please don't tell certain people I said that (like my parents, my grandparents, my pastor, my bible study group, my quilting bee group, my spelling be group, etc.)

Yes, because even though I think it's sad when a person lacks one, I find the lack of a sense of humor in a supreme being very appealing!
