I am a software designer and run into this problem all the time. The problem with many non technical people is they don't get abstraction. They truly cannot step back and articulate the functional requirement. Their perception is I have a problem I need this button. When they are asked to describe the problem they either can't or won't. The people least capable of design are inserting themselves in the design role. A button and an output are design decisions.
I don't think it's supposed to be a parody of any religion in particular, but rather more religion in general. Scientology has some very odd beliefs, but they generally don't try to ban much of modern-day life. The many "abominations" of Nugganism have elements of the religious laws of Judaism, Mormonism, Seventh Day Adventists, Jehova's Witnesses, Islam, and many other real-world religions.
