A more accurate description would be:

Gervais take on aspects of the Christian religion that probably less than 1/4 of humanity actually believes in anyway.

Saying that he is taking on "religion" is like saying someone is taking on "history" by disagreeing with causes and effects of the French Revolution or that someone is taking on "science" by pointing out that past theories in medicine and biology from 500 to 100 years ago were proven to be wrong.

It's easy to pin point things in any subject and "take them on", but you can't give people credit for taking on a whole realm of science or philosophy for doing such a thing.
