Many onliners are already aware of the odd difference between JWs and Mormons in the area of humor. While 78% of Mormons have an active sense of humor, only 27.8% of JW have a responsive sense of humor. There's been some research and testing at the esteemed Clown College of Los Angeles, CA to determine if the JWs simply have repressed,
dormant, senses of humor, or whether their sense of humor has suffered a permanent paralysis. Testing is also being done on the water used by JWs in their baptismal pools to determine whether a humor repressing/killing agent is introduced in the waters. Some anecdotal evidence exists to indicate that people with healthy senses of humor seemed to suffer paralysis of their laugh track just after their baptismal experience.
Other research being done at The University of Laughology of Queens, NY is attempting to quantify, through testing and research, whether the JW religion simply appeals to people with a damaged sense of humor.
And finally, there are several non-profit, evangelical organizations working hard in a humanitarian effort to revive long-dormant senses of humor in the JW community. Daily massages of their humor are being administered, free of charge in most cases, by tireless workers. Other workers, like guide dogs for the blind, are tirelessly helping those with paralysed laugh tracks to recognize humor.
Donations to the Witnesses Humor Organization for Revitalization, Enthusiasm and Sport are welcome, via a special arrangement set up in concert with the international plumbers and piperfitters union.
