Scroll on down to Apple Macintosh. (Warning: consumption of beverages while reading this will cause you need not only a new keyboard, but probably a monitor too) as long as it has "Shiny lickable buttons"

That definitely smells of parody. So does the Landover Baptist Shutdown page.

Maybe it's a conspiracy to get the Christians to act like loonies, like in Illuminatus.

That site can't possibly be serious. (thinks of all the crazy bullshit I've seen written by christians) Okay, so it can. Regardless, I still laughed so hard I was crying. Landover has nothing on these guys.

Noticing a banner ad for "WTF Ministries"..

Yeah, parody.

Did you check out the Christian game theory page.

This site is clearly a parody - and quite an impressive piece of work. I suspect it is someone connected to Landover Baptist.

This is the funniest thing i've seen in a long time! :notworthy

Did you see the Halloween page?

Objective: Halloween

"Bazooka Jesus", one of the many quality Christian evangelical candies available commercially.

Quote:

"BOO! I'm John the Baptist, and these are my many exciting exploits..."

Quote:

Share your faith with carved vegetables

Mini-KitKat bars work well for hiding personalized Bible tracts since they have an outer label that can be removed, written on, and reattached with ease.

Too Damn Funny!! :notworthy

OBJECTIVE: is clearly a parody site. Crossspot itself (http://www.crossspot.com) is a Christian web hosting site and appears to be legit. Which makes the whole thing even funnier.

About Apple: Apple's logo (an apple in rainbow colors with a bite taken out of it) is supposed to be a reference to the suicide of the early computer science genius Alan Turing who was persecuted (and prosecuted) for his homosexuality.

I am surprised that they didn't include "Apple pushing homosexual agenda on our children and making them gay" (design of iMacs could be used to drive the point home

) in their little segment. Oh well.

Well, I'll be damned. A parody after all!

Absolutely brilliant stuff. :notworthy

CaptainOfOuterSpace · 05-13-2003, 10:25 AM

Wow, extremely funny stuff!

But an obvious parody though, since there's no contact information whatsoever, and the writing style and graphic artistry is suspiciously similar to Landover Baptist. I wouldn't be surprised if this is just an outgrowth of Landover.

#1: The photos of people with picket signs protesting against Landover Baptist are definitely doctored (I would know).

#2: The giant american flag with "GOD" on it definitely smells of Landover.

Has anybody seen the mall page? I actually saw one before at my mall. The lady was screaming 'SEEK SALVATION! SEEK SALVATION!' and I heard it all the way to the Food Court.

It was FUNNY.
