No...This is just a joke...

"But he loves you" was the punchline...

Anyone who tries to pass this excerpt off as a legitimate definition of religion is one who is conforming a religion out of atheism and is trying to pass their beliefs on to others in the same way many see other religions trying to pass their beliefs on to others...
