This is a mobile screenshot of a social media post featuring a popular pun based on the English translation of the Bible verse Leviticus 20:13. The original post jokes that the Bible says being gay is acceptable as long as you are high, playing on the double meaning of the word 'stoned': the original meaning of being executed by throwing stones, versus the modern slang meaning of being intoxicated by drugs. After the original post, commenter Anna Cone replies correcting the poster, calling them a dummy for misinterpreting the verse, and commenter Dilla Arma Nate responds with the deadpan question 'Did u write it', which is a funny retort pointing out that the wording of the verse is exactly what it says, making Anna's correction technically unnecessary for the wordplay joke.

This meme uses a cropped fragment of an old Renaissance religious painting, which depicts a horned devil (representing Satan) whispering into the ear of a bearded man. Text added to the image reads at the top 'And then Satan said:', and over the painting reads 'Put the alphabet into math'. The joke plays on the common student frustration with algebra, which introduces letters (the alphabet) as variables in mathematical equations, framing the entire concept of using letters in math as an evil, cruel invention from Satan.

This is a meme graphic showing a Muslim halal butcher cutting meat in his shop, with a Pakistani flag visible on the wall behind him. An overlaid zoomed-in newspaper clipping highlights the story, and large text at the bottom explains the news incident: a halal butcher in Zurich, Switzerland mislabeled 3.1 tons of pork as veal and sold it to Muslim customers over three years, and none of the customers noticed any difference. The meme gets its humor from the irony of customers following strict dietary restrictions unknowingly eating prohibited pork for years without noticing.

This is a two-panel meme using the popular Jim Halpert presentation template from the US sitcom *The Office*. In the first panel, Jim Halpert points to a whiteboard with the text "Your religion does not prohibit me from anything". In the second panel, Jim smiles at the camera while the whiteboard reads "It prohibits you. Learn the difference.". The meme makes a point that religious rules only apply to people who follow that religion, and do not restrict or govern the actions of non-believers, pushing back against people who impose their religious beliefs on others.

This is a satirical political meme that repurposes an official U.S. Army photograph of Muslim American soldiers praying during the Eid al-Fitr holiday. The joke plays on the common critique that the U.S. military has repeatedly intervened in Muslim-majority Middle Eastern countries to control oil reserves, framing the image of praying Muslim soldiers as the U.S. military looking for oil in heaven (the Islamic afterlife). It is an ironic joke criticizing U.S. resource-driven foreign intervention.

This meme features a candid photograph of a Buddhist monk in an orange traditional robe inspecting a long rifle inside a retail gun store, with racks of other firearms displayed behind him. An overlaid text caption at the bottom reads "Patience has limits" - Buddha, creating an ironic humorous contrast between the common association of Buddha and Buddhist monks with infinite patience and peaceful philosophy, and the visual of the monk shopping for a gun, implying his patience has run out.

This meme uses the popular Lisa Simpson presentation template from *The Simpsons* to deliver social commentary about intolerant religious groups. Lisa Simpson stands on stage in front of a projection screen with the core message: that some religions are so fragile they react with murderous rage to even the slightest criticism. This matches the original post's title 'They are peaceful, as long as you do exactly as they say', pointing out that these groups are only peaceful when people fully comply with their demands, and respond with extreme anger or violence to any questioning.

This meme is a screenshot of two connected Twitter (X) posts. The first post, from user Fatema Inayat, features two photos of a hijabi woman in a blue graduation cap and gown (adjusting her cap while seated in a car) alongside the text: *"who said a hijabi couldn’t graduate"*. The second post, a reply from user Chirag Shah, simply reads *"Quran"*. The humor comes from the subversion of expectations: the initial question implies a stereotype that hijabi women are barred from graduating, but the reply jokingly references the Quran, which does not impose such restrictions, creating a sarcastic, lighthearted punchline that calls out the absurdity of the stereotype.

This is a 5-panel edited meme from the animated sitcom *Family Guy*, centered on a petty, vindictive joke. The meme features Peter Griffin and an animated depiction of God: 1. Peter asks, "Hey, do atheists go to hell?" and God replies "No." 2. Peter then asks a redacted, blanked-out question, implying a target he dislikes. 3. God responds angrily: "Straight to hell. To the boiler room of hell. All the way down." 4. Peter smiles and says, "Good, good. That makes me happy." The humor comes from the flexible blank line, which lets viewers insert their own hated group, person, or thing as the target of God's extreme condemnation, leaning into Peter's established petty, selfish personality from the show. It's a relatable template for expressing lighthearted disdain for something or someone.

This meme features a comic book illustration of Superman, standing with hands on hips, a smug, self-assured expression, and a bright glowing aura behind him. Overlaid text reads: 'How religious people feel after telling someone who just lost their entire family in an accident: "God has a plan"'. The image satirizes the perceived insensitivity and self-righteousness of using the common religious platitude 'God has a plan' to console someone who has suffered a catastrophic, traumatic loss. It frames the speaker as feeling unjustifiably proud or content with their comment, despite its lack of empathy for the grieving person.

The meme features a top text caption and a lower image of a real person. The text reads: 'Me watching people peacefully making money illegally, but I know if I try it, God will use me to set an example'. The image shows a person with curly hair, wearing a red shirt, standing outdoors with greenery and a building in the background, looking to the side with a concerned or watchful expression. A watermark 'Fun_Signature9724' is visible at the bottom-left corner. The humor stems from the relatable feeling of observing others engage in questionable activities without consequences while fearing one's own potential to face severe repercussions, framed through a lighthearted religious context.

This image is a screenshot of a Twitter post from Visegrád 24 (@visegrad24) dated February 5. The post discusses Greece launching a nationwide crackdown on illegal mosques in Athens and deporting migrants who run them. The text states that authorities report nearly 60 illegal places of worship continue to operate across Athens, often located in basements, apartments, warehouses, etc. The visual elements include the Greek flag, a man wearing traditional Islamic clothing (white robe and cap), and a large mosque with domes and minarets. The headline at the bottom reads: 'GREECE BEGINS SHUTTING DOWN ILLEGAL MOSQUES AND DEPORTING MIGRANTS WHO RUN THEM'.
