Seventh-day Adventists enjoy laughing and good humor as much as anyone; perhaps even more, to compensate for illicit pleasures which they abstain from. April fool's jokes, however, often hinge on deception and/or making fun at someone's expense. The "seventh-day" of Adventism reflects their strong belief in the Ten Commandments, which also forbids the "false witness" that many practical jokes entail. And their strong belief in Jesus entails not needlessly upsetting anyone.
