But after Uzziah became powerful, his pride led to his downfall. He was unfaithful to the LORD his God, and entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.
2 Chronicles 26:16
Our family has been having many problems with being sarcastic, so Mom decided to fix it. She came up with a code word for whenever someone was sarcastic and when the code word was spoken then you have to pay a quarter, if you don't have a quarter then you have to pay a dollar and so on. Our family decided that Canada was to be our code word and I have had to pay at least 2$ worth of quarters for all that I have done.
Being Sarcastic comes from pride, it tries to make others feel bad and make yourself feel good. Also when it is said that what was said is bad and that you should not be sarcastic People try to justify themselves by saying it was funny. Is that right? Is it right to assume that others thought that what you said was funny? Is it right to make fun of someone? No!!! Being sarcastic is prideful, and it tears relationships apart. We can not think that it is funny to others.
Making fun of people tears the person that you are talking to apart. I have a true story of something I did a long time ago that proves my statements.
I always used to pick on Lucy and she thought it was funny, Or so I thought. She always laughed and went along and bore with what I did until one day she just broke out in tears. I was for some reason shocked at this reaction. I thought that she liked it right.
It is not funny to make fun of someone. Even if they act like they think its funny deep inside you can feel that nobody likes it. So... If people don't like being made fun of they must not like sarcasm. So basically don't do it!
