It is tempting to join and say "My former Nissan pickup truck was designed in California, and built in Tennessee, but my wife's 'American' car was built in Mexico"

[MikeCCrutchfield]

And I love how the women who says "God hates SUVs" is accused of being a commie.....always good for a laugh

[Crimson92]

WTF see kids this is why u dont breed with your sister!!!!!!

[Gearcraft]

man... i browsed the site and found a sticky that says accept JESUS and get a PS3... but then they have to give away WII now and people should hurry before these manufacturers run out of business. (talk about loving US made products)

this is even more shocking... instructions on how to get the PS3 http://www.landoverbaptist.net/PS3.htm

[c0nstant]

that really pissed me off.

[Gearcraft]

i browsed some more links from the above page... ive had enough. i feel like throwing up now.

After researching the site a bit I found out it is a satire forum. Still damn funny though the things these people say.
Apparently some churches are trying to get the site shutdown because they say it spreads bad feelings towards the establishment. Kinda like molesting little choir boys?

[Gearcraft]

hmmm. really strange.

they are saying in the website that the wikipedia entry is a vandalized one and that they are not satire...

If it is a satire, it is a little too real, if it's not a satire, well, SCARY.

What happens if I don't have the money and never will?

Take out loans and apply for credit cards. The rapture will take you to heaven before you have to pay anything back. Just take a look at the news: disasters, wars, signs all over the place. Clearly we are living in the end times. Keep one credit card to buy food. Send the rest to LBC.

Remember, you can also give with services rather than cash, becoming a missionary is the best way to do this. For example, our Iraq mission is constantly asking for more missionaires due to high turnover.

Okay, I'll give all I have, but why do you have to be so pushy?

Because it's not your money in the first place, it belongs to God:

Psalm 24:1 The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

Haggai 2:8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.

What happens if I don't tithe?

You are a criminal, and will be treated like one:

Malachi 3:8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.

[continentalg5]

That's pretty intense.

People take things too literally sometimes.

If I met one of these guys I would seriously not think twice of poking their eyes out and shoving them up their butts

Holy cow, I thought it was a joke, but I think they're being serious.

EDIT - wait a second... is it a joke? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landover_Baptist_Church says "The Landover Baptist Church is a web site that serves as the home of a fictional[1] Baptist church based in the fictional town of Freehold, Iowa. The Landover Baptist site and its associated Landoverbaptist.net forum are a parody of fundamentalist Christianity and the Religious Right in the USA, and of Westboro Baptist Church in particular."

i thought it was a joke. but here's a direct quote from their website:

* Do you think we are a parody?

Perhaps you've heard that we are a joke, satire or parody, and you came to our site for a few cheap laughs or "lulz", only to find people taking everything seriously. So now you have decided to be the first to "spill the beans" and let everyone in on your "knowledge". Friend, this has been done so many times that it isn't funny any more.

When an Atheist loses a debate to a fundamentalist Christian, it is a common tactic to accuse the Christian of being a parody. The Atheist is so full of pride, that he cannot imagine being outsmarted by a dumb God-Believer, so he thinks the Christian must be an Atheist like himself who is only pretending to be Christian.

Our situation is not helped by the fact that there is some atheist satirist who does an impression of our Pastor Deacon Fred at atheist conventions. People hear about him and start rumors that they are the same person and that the real Landover Baptist Church is also just a joke. Some Atheists go so far as to vandalize our church's Wikipedia page to say that we are a satire.

Here is a link to the version of the Landover Baptist Wikipedia article before the vandals got a hold of it.

here's the same link i posted above where i read this. http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=5610

It's been around for years. It's a joke site.

First heard of it around the time of the Kansas School Board/Intelligent Design debacle.

[Neurorad]

That sight is freaking hilarious.

How could you think this web site is real?

[Maestro]

Joke or not, do not dismiss the content.

There are people out there who think like this. If it is real then you are getting an inside view, if it satire, remember satire is base on reality and fact, but written in a why that makes you laugh.

If you never talked to these types of people, consider yourself blessed, but they do exist.

Is that a Southern Baptist forum or just plain Baptist?

I went to a "true" Southern Baptist church a few weeks ago in a small town my friend lives in. His wife was getting baptised and asked me to come up and party and attend church to witness her baptism. Hadn't seen him a long while so of course I said yes.

That's a different bunch of folks there. Just felt really uncomfortable after a while. Born and raised Catholic and now attending a Methodist church it was really odd. If some of those people knew we had beer in the car and his bro had weed at the house they would have flipped a lid.

[561design]

It's a parody site. There's mention of it in this article from Snopes.

Yeah, I've done some Googling, and it is indeed a satire. Had me fooled for a bit.
