OK, for the two or three people on the board who have never heard of the Westboro Baptist Church, here’s the link. Fair warning, not only is it revolting, but they’ve changed the entire format, adding annoying musical snippets and taking away that convenient front page where all the links were right there. Now it’s all menus and tabs, and you can’t even find your way around with their sitemap. I think their webmaster took one too many information architecture courses, but anyway, I’m drifting. Search at your own risk.
As for the rest of us, what are your favorites? Which weirdo religious sites do you browse just for the laughs? I’m partial to two:
Hephzibah House: Is your daughter acting out? Did you catch her with a joint and a Cure album for the second time this month? Fear not, because the solution is only a phone call and professionally supervised ride away at Hephzibah House, where your daughter can learn about how her problems stem from the evils of sports, working mothers, and dressing in pants. You’d better believe she’ll come home a changed woman! So changed, you might want to install a lock on your bedroom door and use it at night. I have a sick, sad fascination with the testimonies page. There’s something about reading a bunch of narratives consisting of an entire page of five or six word sentences and the word “rebellious” mentioned almost as much as Jesus that makes me think of The Manchurian Candidate. If I run for president on a liberal secular platform, you’d better believe that I won’t be stumping in Indiana.
There’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. My parent’s church sends them money on a regular basis.
I’d like to submit the American Family Association. Sometimes it gets more entertaining them others, but one of my favorite things are their polls. Things like, Have you ever been offended by an in-flight movie and not been able to do anything about it? Yes or No. Lots of good stuff in there.
It would seem an attorney shares a similar opinion of gasp the nation’s largest and fastest growing church…
Republican district attorney candidate Kelly Siegler told a judge last year that members of Houston’s Lakewood Church (Pastor Joel Osteen) are “screwballs and nuts” and that she works to keep them off of juries.
Jesus-is-Lord.com: Just a whole slew of nuttiness written by a woman who thinks that intentionally using poor spelling and grammar somehow makes her more believable as a Christian–which is something that most Christians would probably find rather odd. There’s enough here to keep you occupied for weeks, if this stuff makes you laugh.
Interesting bit of information about Lisa on the slide show billboard at the top of the Lakewood Church page. Apparently, she comes on Wednesday evening. :eek: I don’t know who Lisa is, but she seems to have a well-ordered life!
That’s OK. A woman in my wife’s sorority is named B.J. Langdon. Wonderful person, but such an unfortunate nickname (yup, her real name is Betty Jean, but when she was in college she thought BJ was cuter.)
I was bummed (heh!) to see that their store is closed. The crotchless pantaloons were quite an eye-opener. And the excerpts from the CDD novels were nothing short of soft core BDSM porn. Nope, nothing sexual about CDD spanking!
Icon Busters. Unlike the usual nuts these guys have some skill in putting together their material. Be sure to check out the Hypocrites on Parade flash presentation - I’ve never seen anti-Catholic, anti-Baptist, anti-semitic, anti-Methodist, anti-evangelical, anti-atheist, and anti-agnostic screeds rolled into one and done so well. Apparently only a very narrow portion of certain types of Presbyterians aren’t going to burn in eternal damnation.
