Dear God. I have no words.

1. In the kid's drawing with Jesus on the bed with him, is Timmy peeing on himself?
And why does Jesus look like Satan?

6. I know
I got so angry with the part about infiltrating a Druidic "cult." I've been studying pagan faiths for a while now, and their "facts" are absolute B.S. x(

10. It's amazing how flexible their idea of truth is.
I hate people who think they have a god given right to harass anyone, anywhere, at any time, under any circumstances so long as they're preaching about God. But anyone who wants to be left alone is violating THEIR rights.
:nuke:

I want to reach through the computer and start slapping people. x(

16. Exactly.
This got my blood pressure up. I love their advice to kids about 'encountering' atheists like they're some kind of wild animal. :eyes:

4. Why do Fundie websites always look like shit?
Not even the content...I'm just talking about the layouts/colors/fonts/etc.

Why does God hate decent HTML? What has it ever done to Him?

They're upset about Landover Baptist, proving once again that Fundies have no sense of humor.

39. No, they're not.
It's a parody.

Did you know that in the Garden of Eden,
dinosaurs were vegetarians (plant eaters)?
God told us so in the Bible (Gen. 1:30)!
Creation Science researchers think that God
gave T. Rex his sharp teeth to crack open
coconuts! Isn't that cool?
This is parody


This is parody


And this is TOTALLY parody
cool, but parody

18. Amazing true vocabulary
triclavianism
infralapsarianism
prosopon
hypostatic
homoousian
supra-adult
Agapic vertigo
Waldensian protoanabaptism
syncopated doxology
paedobaptism
missiological
manumission
soteriological
ultramontane
adiaphoric

All found on this one page: http://www.objectiveministries.org/pastorscorner/
I am sure there are many other multisyllabic gems elsewhere on the site.

22. And I'm guilty of 7 or 8 of these heresies.
Just did a little paedobaptisin' Sunday morning, followed by a syncopated doxology (on a horse, a pretty good horse...). Then the family of the victim took me out to lunch. Where I shared with them my soteriological infralapsarianism. It turns out they were supralapsarian. So, as you can imagine, hilarity ensued.

25. That page is massively disturbing.
*shudder*

Messed up thinking all over it. The way he writes, though, I could see some thinking it's all logical and true. I sure hope no one falls for that crap.

20. I just love the call to close down the Landover baptist site for anti-Christian beliefs in America.
http://www.objectiveministries.org/shutdown/


OBJECTIVE: Landover Baptist Shutdown

By Jim Carlson and OBJECTIVE: Ministries staff

Our Purpose:

The Internet was created by the United States of America - a Christian nation - and should not be used to spread anti-Christian, secular, or non-Christian propaganda and hatespeech. This is our Internet, and we should exercise our position as its owners and as the guardians of civilization to stop its misuse.

26. ABSTINENCE SHORTS???


These boxer shorts feature the Zounds YRM logo with the inspirational words "Radically Abstinent, Saved & Saving it!" A great way to show the youths that abstinence is "where it's at".

Enjoy the roomy comfort of our sexy boxers as underwear or sleepwear. They’re 100% cotton, open fly…for thinking outside the boxers. Boxers, because you don’t want to be brief.

31. it's a parody website
I remember seeing this site linked from landover baptist(another fundie parody site)

I don't think a real christian website would have an "all your base" reference.

38. Damn! They're on to us!
Edited on Wed Oct-24-07 06:04 PM by gmoney
"The so-called "American Atheists" -- an oxymoron if ever there was -- is the largest Atheist organization operating in our nation. They have as their logo (fig. 5) what is clearly a combination of a nuclear atom with a missile head, such as the nuclear warheads used by the Soviets (fig. 6). They claim this logo is merely symbolic of their worship of science, but its true purpose is to signal to their compatriots their goal to obtain nuclear devices to use against Christians."

How are those plans going to create a nuclear device that would only target fundies?

I wish M hadn't found this site. :(

You may be moved to try and witness to
these poor lost souls yourself, however
AVOID TALKING TO THEM!"
