Default Hey Kids! What should you do if you find an atheist?





If you find an atheist in your neighborhood...

I especially like "Habu". BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Dumbass fundies can't even spell "kids" correctly.

Is that a satire or what?

I think you'll find that most sites that mention the Landover Baptist Church are satirical.

I mean, wasn't your first thought on whether Lamuel, the lamb, would make a good husband for Ruby, the lioness, that he would certainly make a tastey husband?

And the historical wives listed Hagar before Sarah for Abraham and both Rachel and Leah for Jacob - that's what gave me my first strong hint.

The thing is, that site complains about the satirical Landover Baptist Church:

There's another thread around here that discusses this site.

(Personally, I think they are Landover.)

Well whoever it is it's a really great parody.

I especially like the "Theobiologist" who reveals that when the moon is struck by meteors, the sound waves are actually a voice speaking ancient aramaic.

I'm now resisting the temptation to forward this in a serious sounding e-mail to the "Bad Astronomy" guy.

If you find an atheist in your neighborhood...

Is this first site a Joke or parody or something? If it's real, I am sincerely scared for the future.

Whether it is a parody or not makes very little difference. The simple fact is that there are Christians who believe stuff like it.

Also, I clicked on their banner at the bottom of the page, and ended up at:

http://www.jesusfilm.org/

(You are likely to end up elsewhere if you click on the banner there, as it changes. Some of the things you will get to are sites that sell tasteless religious objects. You can keep reloading the page at http://crossspot.net/objective/kidz.html to get different ad banners at the bottom of the page. Here is another interesting site I found that way: http://www.covenanteyes.com/)

The film that they will show you online (see http://www.jesusfilm.org/languages/00529/index.html) seems to be far too much trouble to have been a parody, and is, in any case, like Christian films I have seen. (Let me admit, I did not sit through the whole thing [it lasts over 2 hours], but from what I saw of it, it is pretty standard Christian stuff.)
