I'd be happy to listen to your opinions as well as share my observations of the Bible and history.
God has to have a sense of humor. There are all kinds of humorous things in the Bible. Even accounts of smack talk by God's anointed people. You are right in the idea that Christians don't have to defend God. He's big enough to handle things Himself. That said, I will stand by believing that it is at the very least in poor taste to promote killing Christians for entertainment. Just like we shouldn't talk of killing Jews, Blacks, Asians, or people of differing gender opinions. Try joking about gas chambers in Israel or lynchings in a black community and see if they find the humor in it.
BTW, not all 8 spoke wheels are Buddhist any more than all crosses are Christian. If Buddha has a copyright on the design I think he should bring it to the Bruins office and discuss it.
