I tell you what, they are certainly sailing close to the wind by providing banner links to legitimate Christian sites!

Surely it's only a matter of time before the owners of these sites catch on...?

Nah,Fundies seem to have the sense of humor removed-sort of like a personality circumcision.

Did you see "Malls Of The Damned"

Quote:

"Darth Maul": Commercialized symbol of evil whose name sounds like "mall". Coincidence?

Quote:

Shoppers deluded by Secular Consumerism wandering a mall in a futile search for spiritual fulfillment.

Quote:

This is what the Mall Mission intends to do. We will go into the dank belly of the Secular beast and pull out those it has swallowed, delivering them into the daylight of Salvation.

Did you see the pamphlets? "Attention Hell-mart shoppers".

I just can't stop laughing!

It's definitely a parody though.

Several of us discussed this site on #infidelchat awhile ago and came to the same conclusion. The godflag that CaptainOfOuterSpace mentioned was the deciding factor, if I recall correctly. And the Landover shutdown page suggested an affiliation.

Looking at the "Creation science Fair" right now.

Elementary School Level

1st Place: "My Uncle Is A Man Named Steve (Not A Monkey)"
Cassidy Turnbull (grade 5) presented her uncle, Steve. She also showed photographs of monkeys and invited fairgoers to note the differences between her uncle and the monkeys. She tried to feed her uncle bananas, but he declined to eat them. Cassidy has conclusively shown that her uncle is no monkey.

Your uncle is not a monkey? No shit, Sherlock!

Quote:

Middle School Level

2nd Place: "Women Were Designed For Homemaking"
Jonathan Goode (grade 7) applied findings from many fields of science to support his conclusion that God designed women for homemaking: physics shows that women have a lower center of gravity than men, making them more suited to carrying groceries and laundry baskets; biology shows that women were designed to carry un-born babies in their wombs and to feed born babies milk, making them the natural choice for child rearing; social sciences shows that the wages for women workers are lower than for normal workers, meaning that they are unable to work as well and thus earn equal pay; and exegetics shows that God created Eve as a companion for Adam, not as a co-worker.

Wait a minute, this looks like something Landover baptist has done...

High School Level

1st Place: "Using Prayer To Microevolve Latent Antibiotic Resistance In Bacteria"
Eileen Hyde and Lynda Morgan (grades 10 & 11) did a project showing how the power of prayer can unlock the latent genes in bacteria, allowing them to microevolve antibiotic resistance. Escherichia coli bacteria cultured in agar filled petri dishes were subjected to the antibiotics tetracycline and chlorotetracycline. The bacteria cultures were divided into two groups, one group (A) received prayer while the other (B) didn't. The prayer was as follows: "Dear Lord, please allow the bacteria in Group A to unlock the antibiotic-resistant genes that You saw fit to give them at the time of Creation. Amen." The process was repeated for five generations, with the prayer being given at the start of each generation. In the end, Group A was significantly more resistant than Group B to both antibiotics.

WTF?????

This has got to be a parody site.

LOL...

To be honest... this shit is so damned funny I HAS to be true...

I've seen stranger...

Does anyone here believe Church Lady on SNL was a real person? It was Dana Carvey in drag. Take my word for it.

The crossspot.net/objective site is a parody.

And atheist is not spelled 'athiest'. It's spelled 'atheist'. Really. For sure.

That got first place! I would have laughed it out of the hall! They would need to use a placebo religion on the control group! (just kidding, this site is a great spoof!)
