I know how ignorant the world can get, and I definitely understand that ignorance also persists in certain people who claim to be Christian -- that website and other examples like it. I'll be honest, I don't hold anything against the original poster on this thread, you didn't make the site, but I still gotta say, I'm pretty offended. It makes me mad to see people like that act stupid and try to mask it under Christianity's sake. It makes him and ME look bad, because people who aren't really Christians try to associate stuff like this with people like me and those close to me all the time --it really angers me.
It makes matters worse when people come on this thread and throw their own random position in peoples faces, like I'm an "________"!!!, be it Atheist, Bhuddhist, Socialist, whatever. That's what you are? Good for you, nobody asked you. Nobody's cutting you down, do you. Why try to come in the thread to justify yourself? What you're saying is off-topic anyway!
To those who don't know, take ignorance for what it is. REAL Christians don't have to claim their religion, don't have to speak in holier-than-thou language......they don't even have to say a word! Simply put, their actions speak for themselves, that's how the New Testament instructs its followers to be. Take it from me, the loudest "Christians" usually aren't that at all.
My point in this post wasn't to take a strike at Christian's in general, but what I felt was how narrow minded it can make some people, or the hatred some of them teach about those of different skin or sexuality. I'll stop there to stop a full blown religious discussion, but understand this wasn't meant to be a strike at theists, even if I disagree with what they say.
In any case, after poking around this site further, it's become more and more apparent that it is a spoof. One of their "Objectives" is to shut down the Landover Baptist Church, which for those that don't know is a fake organization who posts articles similar to these. I'm now pretty sure that these are created by the same group or another group to play off of each other. Also, the lead pastor of Objective: Ministries, Dr. Richard Paley, seems to be a spoof of Dr. William Paley, an apologetic from the 1700's.
If the LBC isn't a possible tip off, under their "4 Kidz" section, under "Professor Girafenstein" they claim that the T-rex was an herbivore, the Earth is less than 10,000 years old, and fossils all came from the flood referenced in the bible. I'm not even sure these people are this stupid, nor would they be able to gain a credible following, especially since I can't get a response from any of their email addresses.
Not to mention Pastor Skeet looks like a porn star with his massive black mustache with the name to match.
