About the Author

Thomas Haka (he prefers Tom) has been a truth seeker for many years. Like the original "Doubting Thomas," he needs to experience and be shown before believing. This need has led to an exploration of every major faith and way of knowing. His spiritual path has led him to believe that there is an inner voice (Spirit) of Joy in each of us that can be nurtured, trusted and shared.

Tom is a former Air Force officer with a graduate degree in Counseling and Education. He has worked as a counselor, treatment director and administrator for emotionally disturbed children in group and foster care, alcohol and drug treatment programs and at a psychiatric hospital.

More recently he has been a Health Sciences educator for Chapman University and has rehabilitated houses in the community. He enjoys a good laugh and believes all of life's foibles should be shared and enjoyed to their fullest.

This review is from: Angels Laughing: The Very Best Spiritual and Religious Humor (Paperback)

Some of the humorous stories are funny, cute; some are a bit too dirty (yes, dirty) for my taste and some I just don't get. A friend recommeded this book and if I did not buy it used, I would have felt cheated. Borrow the book from someone instead of buying it.

This review is from: Angels Laughing: The Very Best Spiritual and Religious Humor (Kindle Edition)

The author readily admits that some of the jokes have been around, but I found that there were very few jokes that I had not heard before and most of them were just not funny.

A few of the jokes were surprisingly dirty. Many were irreverent, but that is to be expected in a joke book. However, a couple of jokes were beyond the pale, at which point I stopped reading and deleted the book from my Kindle.
