Please cite the rule that says I can’t discuss religion in a humour thread. If you feel I’ve broken ANY rules, please lodge a report.

I didn't say you broke any, but you showed me that you're similar to many atheists undermining people with religion; don't get me wrong but it's like a "common belief" that people believing in God are more gullible and ignorant, so for treating me like that I'll do just the same.
Discussing religion in a topic about "Pete and Repeat joke" in the "Humor section" is taking things out of context and exposes what kind of person you are, it's not a rule but its message is clear: you despise me for my faith or at least undermining me, so I'll just do the same or better: ignore you altogether.
I don't despise you. I feel sorry for you.

Do you know how many times did I hear this sentence in here?
Look; pal. .......exactly !
No, I don’t know. But, for whatever it’s worth, it happens to be true. I don’t despise believers. I don’t wish them ill or want their rights abrogated.
I pity them. It makes me sad that - with very few exceptions - they’ve traded their humanity and basic decency for a belief system which instills in them a hatred for other people. I’m sad that so many, many of them use their religion as a vehicle for actions which, to the rest of us, are anathema.
It isn’t YOU I despise. I despise your religion for what it’s made you.
