JEERING [ Also see Contempt Irony Levity Ridicule Sarcasm Satire Sneer ] Scoff not at the natural defects of any which are not in their power to amend. Oh, it is cruel to beat a cripple with his own crutches.       - Thomas Fuller (1) Jeer not others upon any occasion. If they be foolish, God hath denied them understanding; if they be vicious, you ought to pity, not revile them; if deformed, God framed their bodies, and will you scorn His workmanship? Are you wiser than your Creator? If poor, poverty was designed for a motive to charity, not to contempt; you cannot see what riches they have within.       - Bishop Robert South Abstain from dissolute laughter, uncomely jests, loud talking, and jeering.       - Jeremy Taylor Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
