humor n humility

humor- wikipedia describes it as- "the ability or quality of people, objects, or situations to evoke feelings of amusement in other people. The term encompasses a form of entertainment or human communication which evokes such feelings, or which makes people laugh or feel happy."

humility-also by wikipedia, described as- "a quality or characteristic ascribed to a person who is considered to be humble. A humble person is generally thought to be unpretentious and modest: someone who does not think that he or she is better or more important than others. "

today i was thinking about humor and humility... and i realized that... a lot of, if not most or all of humor involves putting down and laughing at something, someone, an object, an animal... i was thinking... fun and funny as it is... is all we can laugh at the faults or others? and then did Jesus laugh at others? did he... have a sense of humor? does humility and humor go together?
hmm... i'm not saying its wrong to have a sense of humor, but i was just wondering... and heh, no... i don't have any answers... i was just wondering...
