Narrative Humor
A place to read humorous stories
So the University rejected “Does God have a sense of humour?” as a thesis topic. Someone had even scribbled, “Have you read the holy writings?”
I had. I did, again. All of them. Many made me feel as if I’d landed in an outer circle of hell. Then it hit me. Hell? That was it! The ‘The Divine Comedy’ would give me answers! I bought up copies/translations of Dante’s classic work. Next, I hired people to distribute them to the world’s most famous places of worship – all of them. The gods would be watching. Omniscient beings are often accused of being literal-minded, joyless sticklers for discipline. Here was their big chance to disprove the nay-sayers. They’d approve of my distribution of ‘The Divine Comedy’ to church doorsteps, right?
