It's amusing that people think sqlite.org/codeofconduct. is intended as satire. Richard Hipp is a devout Christian and proselytizing is part of that. I think he's being entirely sincere. As an atheist, I think it's ridiculous but I can respect that he actually lives by his beliefs.

contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/co includes "Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences" and not harassing people based on religion beliefs.
Part of being respectful of a differing viewpoint is making a good faith attempt to understand it and see things from that perspective.

I don't think it's reasonable. I think it's ridiculous to adopt a set of religious values / rules from 500 AD for a project. I expect they find the Contributor Covenant to be just as ridiculous based on a perspective driven by deep religious convictions.

Just because it's not bad-faith doesn't mean it's reasonable. Asking others who don't necessarily share your religion to follow a religiously-based code of conduct as part of interaction with your project does not strike me as reasonable.

They sincerely believe we're both going to be damned to eternity in hell based on our lack of belief. If you're able to have some empathy for them, you should be able to understand why that isn't comparable. Their religion can't be separate from their other beliefs and values.
