What, if anything, is too serious to be joked about?

Death or harming someone are my responses.

Anymore everything is getting ridiculous. You have to worry about offending everyone one way or another

Wow. This list could be so long. I have a hard time with the "politically correct" language we must use today. Everyone should use common sense when speaking but also, people need to grow a spine as to not be offended.

At work an associate and I were talking about another co-worker who was just admitted into the hospital for internal hemorrhaging.  An unfortunate event as this particular individual had just recovered from a broken wrist as well as taking care of a loved one who just had some strokes.  Lot's of PT and rehab for the family going on.... The kid tried throwing in a joke.  Quickly recovered with poor timing - I'm sorry that was inappropriate.

There are millions of things too serious to be joked about.  I use to have a friend that he couldn't be serious about anything. Everything was a joke. We don't talk much any more.

If it is something concerning your family if you would get mad if people made jokes about it then it is wrong to make jokes about someone else.

It is also wrong to make jokes and make fun of anyone. If you participate in that then you are a bully.  Most of the stuff people "make jokes" about online today I find offensive.

All of the above plus harm to animals.

    If it harms someone: It is no joke!

Death is not a joke.

There can be a long list of things that is to too serious to joke about.  Some people have sick minds thinking that what they see as funny could never happen to them.  The Lord works in many ways.

Anything that is insulting  to another person; just as there are things we personally don't like others to joke about us; same holds true for others.The tongue can be a sword, that's why we should be careful about how and what we say.
