Rabbi Friedman Doesn't have his Definition of Come Nachon. First off, Mel Brooks is the funniest man on the planet. Next off, comedy is not about desanctification, that's called _SIN_. SIN is not Comedy. Comedy is beyond my capability of defining, however I know Rabbi Friedman's definition is erroneous. Would you laugh at the Maschiach? That's sin, not comedy. G-d bless everyone. Amayn. Amayn. Amayn!
If anything comedy is discovery of the truth that is truly holy, when you thought it was tragedy, and now you realize that it's not a tragedy, it's a comedy! That's comedy. Reply
