A joke saying christian's are stupid, that I can understand. But jokes about sequels to the Bible? The very notion of that somehow being a taboo is absurd. If your sensibilities are so sensitive that you cannot stomach people horsing about about a sequel to the bible, maybe you shouldn't be on the internet in the first place?

People joke about things. Religion included. You have the right to be offended, of course, but unless the jokes are meant in a mean-spirited way, don't expect anyone to care.
Religious jokes are a far more sensitive topic than sexual preference or race jokes. IMHO.

I'd (personally) treat race and sexuality jokes with more humour.
Religion is a not something to joke about, regardless of how small or insignificant the joke itself may appear.
