From their "code of ethics"
There are even more strange ones, but I hope you get the picture. Reason enough to use something else if possible.
If you actually read the page, it's intended as a tongue-in-cheek box-checker.
@colonial @Sibbo I'm actually glad I did read the page itself - it's clearly satire, making fun of how "sacred" others seem to hold their codes of conduct/ethics. I'm glad I read through that - I see no problems with it or in using SQLite.
It's not satire.

They are serious about the religious stuff. And someone who kicks the concept of a code of conduct with their feet like this is surely not a person that is nice to be around.
I fail to see how that's an issue.
Also, in the very page you linked, he clarified:
He also said that he considered only retaining the bullet points that would be relevant to the project, but ultimately decided that would be disrespectful to the original text and its author. Seems fine to me.
Thanks, everyone knows they have a weird coc. It obviously only applies to the maintainers/members of the project though and is more of a statement than something that is actually enforced. As a convinced atheist, I also find it pretty weird but see absolutely no reason at all to avoid sqlite because of that. What matters is: Code quality/correctness (which is absolutely superb when it comes to sqlite) and license, of course. Why would I care about the authors beliefs? They don't even directly benefit from me using their product.
@words_number @Sibbo that was one hell of an opening sentence to misread.

I would think that's satire of insanely long and irrelevant rules documents.
I dk I don't think you can fake a persecution complex like that.
Holy crap. I've used this thing for years and never had a clue they're a bunch of fruitcakes.
@Sibbo @chokidar they seem cool to me
