Absolutely. They went out of their way to show respect for Hayes and at the same time they destroyed those lunatics that have brainwashed him.
Most definitely so, you are correct, this context came across to me as well. It was not a poke in the eye to Hayes at all, "So, you think we're religious bigots, do ya?" No, it was an inspired hit on that fruity little club, same way they lampoon the public priest offenses of the RCC, "The Catholic Boat ...."
And they did the most clever bit to enable a different voice for use of the character Chef, he will still be able to hand out his advice to the boys. Can't wait to see him behind the cafeteria counter, the Chef Vader voice intones, "Today's menu, Salisbury steak, green bean medley ... " LOL!!
