Twixter, a question about your mod note in the joke thread

Do you mean this one?

If so, I see that as the equivalent of this (that also mentions Jews, but hasn’t drawn any complaints):

Both of those jokes refer to particular facets of people’s beliefs (not eating meat during Lent; a quorum of Jews required for some observances) and rely on a bit of wordplay, but neither one makes explicit reference to a negative connotation of the beliefs. There’s a huge difference between those two jokes and one that relies on a widely known, negative stereotype.

Don’t you think that’s a little insensitive when we’re discussing religious jokes? :wink:
