As I read this fundamentalist Christian site I kept repeating to myself that it has to be some kind of parody – but I have yet to find the spot where they “rip off the masks” and reveal themselves as fraudsters… [later]… someone has pointed out parts of this site which do give the game away, but it’s an incredibly elaborate hoax – and apparently they were hosted for a time on a Christian ISP before they were discovered and booted off.

This site, seems to bring together every crackpot fundamentalist belief or practice you’ve ever heard of in one place. It also led me (I’m ashamed to say) to LustPleasure.com which, suffice it to say, is not what you think (and is perfectly safe to read at the office). Read on for a collection of rib-tickling quotes from Objective: Christian Ministries.

First from the 2001 Creation Science Fair:
This is also the first year that Muslim students from the Al-Jannah Islamic school have been invited to participate; two of their students presented a project on human anatomy entitled “Allah (SWT) Created Me” which, while it was found ineligible for a prize due to a number of Biblical inconsistencies, did win a special Interfaith Outreach ribbon.

“My Uncle Is A Man Named Steve (Not A Monkey)”
Cassidy Turnbull (grade 5) presented her uncle, Steve. She also showed photographs of monkeys and invited fairgoers to note the differences between her uncle and the monkeys. She tried to feed her uncle bananas, but he declined to eat them. Cassidy has conclusively shown that her uncle is no monkey.
Middle School 1st prize winner
1st Place: “Life Doesn’t Come From Non-Life”
Patricia Lewis (grade 8) did an experiment to see if life can evolve from non-life. Patricia placed all the non-living ingredients of life – carbon (a charcoal briquet), purified water, and assorted minerals (a multi-vitamin) – into a sealed glass jar. The jar was left undisturbed, being exposed only to sunlight, for three weeks. (Patricia also prayed to God not to do anything miraculous during the course of the experiment, so as not to disqualify the findings.) No life evolved. This shows that life cannot come from non-life through natural processes.
From Evolutionism propaganda:
Shows like Pokemon, which features animals “evolving” into new forms, and movies like Jurassic Park provide a continuous cultural fog of Evolutionism that is impossible for innocent children to escape from.

The real operating system hiding under the newest version of the Macintosh operating system (MacOS X) is called… Darwin! That’s right, new Macs are based on Darwinism! While they currently don’t advertise this fact to consumers, it is well known among the computer elite, who are mostly Atheists and Pagans. Furthermore, the Darwin OS is released under an “Open Source” license, which is just another name for Communism. They try to hide all of this under a facade of shiny, “lickable” buttons, but the truth has finally come out: Apple Computers promote Godless Darwinism and Communism.

But is this really such a shock? Lets look for a moment at Apple Computers. Founded by long haired hippies, this company has consistently supported 60’s counter-cultural “values”. But there are even darker undertones to this company than most are aware of. Consider the name of the company and its logo: an apple with a bite taken out of it. This is clearly a reference to the Fall, when Adam and Eve were tempted with an apple by the serpent. It is now Apple Computers offering us temptation, thereby aligning themselves with the forces of darkness.

  2. The Landover Baptist Church link was a dead giveaway for me, but then I know more than I could possible want to about American Fundies and those who oppose them. *sigh.

    I *love* that site, though; what a riot!
