How is laughter a uniquely human trait?

Nick

Rose

Carol

IL – Father John Paul Erickson joins Deacon Patrick Conley to discuss Why We Laugh
(5:43) How is laughter a uniquely human trait?
(20:09) Nick - Appropriate laughter and why we laugh. Altar server trying to light a candle. All of a sudden, people were laughing after he tried so many times. It has to be tempered with the appropriateness of the situation.

(24:38) Break 1
Did Jesus have a sense of Humor?
(30:58) Rose - Humor. I'm 87. Humor has helped me in my last stages to continue without having to complain so much.

(38:04) Break 2
Pauline - Joke: Pastor and bus driver. Both die at the same time. Bus driver gets ticketed first. Pastor waits and finally to gates. I thought I'd be the first in line. St. Peter said why was I first? When you preached everyone slept, when he preached, everyone prayed.
(43:47) Joe - Joke: Jesus and Moses on a golf course. At this dog leg of a hole. Jesus says, 'I'm going to get above par on this. Jesus hits the ball, goes into water. He walks on water to get the ball. Asked Moses if it's Jesus, and said no, it's Jack Nicholas.
(47:04) Carol - When I think about laughter, I think why it's important to have a merry heart. It does good like medicine. Laughter is the best medicine you can have.
Juanita - Years ago, God showed me his sense of humor when I was upset over my grandson's mom keeping us from seeing him. I unexpectedly received a gift of a small meat cleaver. It just made me laugh. It keeps us grounded in our sense of humor.

Email â Can God work with mistakes in our ma

Thomas

Ethel

Veronica

Anna

Father Rob Kroll joins Deacon Patrick Conley to discuss Making Good Decisions
What is free will?
(15:01) Email – Can God work with mistakes in our major decisions?
(17:58) Thomas - I'm confused how everyone is being assisted by God in making decisions. What communications are being made with callers and receiving messages from God? I don't know how God is communicating with them.

(23:26) Break 1
Does God care about every decision we make?
(29:53) Carol - Does the holy spirit ever allow you to make a bad decision to teach a lesson?
(34:53) Ethel - Someone gave me 20 thousand dollars for helping them remedy a situation (sell a property). Sold it, and I received the $ and now the person wants it back. should I give it back? They made a report that I stole the $.

(38:55) Break 2
(40:14) Veronica - Decision on whether to get married or not. We were engaged and going through the process. Asked friends to pray for me to discern God's will. That weekend, we found that the Lord put it on our hearts that, no, we weren't meant to marry. I ended up years later entering the convent.
Importance of prudence in making good decisions.
(47:12) Anna - I want to know why people make bad choices. If they know something is bad, why do they still choose it and those horrible decisions?
