It’s nice of you to proclaim superior morals and character, but there is an underlying story of modern media, society and political correctness that is relevant here.

They weren't proclaiming superior morals, rather quoting a rather relevant portion of (what a quick Google search determines as) the Christian Bible.

I won't comment on the second half but it only toxifies conversation to assume the worst in others.

Isn't that what the parent comment did? That's the only reason I commented - i.e. implying that not being serious equals being childish. Quote or not.
