I was watching a "Sandarshana" - an interview in Chandana - DD Kannada channel. No, the interviewee was not a film star, nor a politician. He was a artist of Karnataka folk art called "Doddata".
The interview was good. But we human beings have an evil side in us. What caught my eyes is the parrot green shirt worn by the interviewer who was not of fair sex. So I made fun, saying he is wearing his wife's nightie - the Indian night dress.
But that made me think. (Great!). What if I were at the receiving end of such comments. I too am very bad in selection of my dresses. I would take offense and start 1 hour of continuous criticisms. So "do unto others as you would have do unto you"?
But again, we mortals need some kind of humor. Else the life becomes unbearable. And humor most often is making fun of others.
That is exact reason me and Charlie Hebdo make fun of God. Because he being magnanimous will not take offense so easily.
Now I wrote the title as Why religious humor is important, then erased it wrote it as religious humor, then erased that too. I am no Charlie hebdo.
