That's a satire site, but it is easy to mistake it for the Real Thing.

Red Dave,

Don't feel embarrassed; even real Baptists are taken in, which points to the site's extreme cleverness in satirizing its target.

When I first encountered it (I don't remember how) it took me a fair bit of scrutiny before I "got it."
