I agree. The question made me cringe. The problem with satirists is that the line between satire and seriousness gets blurred. They have put on a performative mask which has become part of their faces, and which they can't take off. They sound satirical when they are being serious just as they sound serious when they are being satirical. These are very good Christian satirists, but when they asked this question it sounded as if they were sending up what is most sacred to Christians: their relationship with Jesus Christ.
