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.

This appears to be a tone def way of saying they don't want a CoC. This is damaging because CoC matter for those least in power.
Belittling it in such a way sends the message that CoCs don't matter and the issues that require them are laughing matters.

Why is it belittling? It's a great way to have CoC. It adds some humor, while not loosing the core meaning.

Even though it looks a lot like satire and is pretty funny, I think they're being genuine and didn't actually intend it that way. If anything, the ridiculousness of seriously adopting this as their code of conduct makes it even funnier.

It's really hard to tell if it's meant to be at all tongue in cheek / sarcastic, but based on the sincere values / beliefs of the person doing it I don't think it's a joke, especially after their mailing list response: sqlite.1065341.n5.nabble.com/Regarding-CoC-.

It was quietly adopted and it took 8 months for it to blow up on social media. I think they'd have been a lot happier if that hadn't happened, which seems like the opposite of what they'd want if the goal was making a political statement via trolling.
