Funny Story About Rowan Atkinson?

Rowan Atkinson was or is Mr. Bean? Mr. Bean is now fading away. Why? Here is one of the funny story about famous people you might hate to read. We're not talking about Mr. Bean kicked from the sky and becoming such a weird person on earth. It's about religion.

What is Mr. Bean's religion? If he celebrates Diwali also called the "festival of lights", he is a Hindu. If he can describe it is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated in autumn every year, he might be a priest. It doesn't sound funny if he celebrates the festival spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, and hope over despair but never stops annoying people. It's not a story about Mr. Bean with his alter ego Rowan Atkinson and some famous Bollywood celebrities questioning why the festival preparations and rituals typically extend over a five day period, but the main festival night of Diwali coincides with the darkest, new moon night of the Hindu Lunisolar month Kartik.

It's a discourse about Rowan Atkinson. The question is what is his religion? Is he an atheist?  He spent some time with the Anglican clergy saying:
So many of the clerics that I've met, particularly the Church of England clerics, are people of such extraordinary smugness and arrogance and conceitedness who are extraordinarily presumptuous about the significance of their position in society. 
Do you think you can get a funny story from one of--perhaps the funniest and the most famous people in the world?

Rowan Atkinson was raised in the Church of England, an Anglican/Episcopalian denomination.So, he is not a Muslim, Hindu or Buddhist. He might be Christian or Catholic. Or ... atheist? (still curious) What do you know about him? He's a witty actor who freely mocked religion when acting as Mr. Bean who's very famous in the world. Who also condemned the clergy of the Church of England and made atheist overtures. So what seems to be a funny story here? You, people coming here won't laugh much!

What makes it funny that this will generally trigger interfaith conflict which is full of sarcasm and fierce argument on any blog forums discussing about it where people fight for their believe. Bigotry and Blasphemy come up as weapons to destroy the harmony of human being. In the meantime, Rowan Atkinson, later on forgotten as famous, is sleeping tight and may be snoring.
