The book (hysterically funny) does not (at least imo) poke fun at Christianity or any other religion ftm. It pokes fun at THIS PARTICULAR GROUP of upper middle class/lower upper class women.

They purport themselves to be very good Christians. However, most of their time in church is spent gossiping, figuring who paid what for which, who has a "real" vs a "faux" whatever, whose husband/wife is stepping out, whose kid didn't get into the good college, you get the picture. The author was not poking fun at religion but at the hypocrisy.

It was all played for laughs, as I submit the casting of HAE and Kristin Chenoworth to play a couple was also.
