Fuzzy Wuzzies for Jesus

This trips me out on so many different levels. Objective 4 Kidz

I'm like 85% sure it's not 'taking the piss', mostly because of their crusade to shut down Landover Baptist (I'm pretty sure we've talked about that site before.)

I'm trying to think of how I would've taken this site when I was like, five (of course, we didn't have the internet when I was five, we were still using the TV then. Cute cartoons, silly answers, it's pretty damned insidious.

Oh, and goats are Atheists. In case you weren't clear on that.

Do children actually see this? scary. I love the whole Girafe Professor bit. Sick and twisted is what I'd call it.

Do children actually see this?

See, that's the thing, I don't know! I mean, I keep hearing about all the unsupervised time children spend on the internet, but adults might point them right at this site. Gives me a bit of a wiggins, that's for sure. I mean, how do you explain to a wee child that the fuzzy lamb is presenting a rather biased view of world religions as a whole?

they've got to be kidding. seriously, a lamb going to church that has to avoid a big red pair of lips? if you see an atheist, TELL YOUR PASTOR RIGHT AWAY?

Linkage is not working...takes you straight to the host site, as far as I can tell...? Or am I being thick?

Ariadne

20:53 / 26.08.03

Yeah, doesn't work for me either. Maybe atheists can't see it?

Ariadne

20:54 / 26.08.03

(sorry, no idea of your religious feelings, Chol - hope I didn't offend!)

Tried it by cutting & pasting that, too, Maz... it's still going to the host (or should that be Host) site... I sense something, shall we say, loaves-and-fishy about its disappearance.

21:38 / 26.08.03

Heh. Not at all, Ariadne.

Could it be something to do with the UKness of us wot can't see it?

Works for me.

But any page that has a "campaign to shut down Landover Baptist" is a piss-take. If that wasn't enough, consider How Would You Answer The Baby Jesus? on the same server... mouseover Baby Jesus for some really disturbing sound....

How could I forsake a face like that? oh wait, that question was to god, not us mere mortals! stupid fuckers.....
so, wait, atheists and Britains can't see the bastard but chaos magicians and colonists can? just my luck....

Habu, the unsaved elephant, is totally biting Ganesh's style. That's not cool.

I'll state right form the get-go that I am a born-again, spirit-filled, faith-walking, tongue-talking Christian. (Are you tuning out yet?)

THAT SITE WAS DISTURBING!!! I would not encourage my children to any Christian site which promotes such glaring misconceptions and generalisations as "Atheists are often very grumpy and bitter and will lash out at children."

Don't even get me started on the giraffe, Professor Giraffenstein! That thing is an embarrassment to the faith.

Spyder- it's us British Chaoists who are just really, really confused. Or maybe my browser's agnostic.

I can get there from here in the UK, but I'm not sure they want me to ...

"The Internet was created by the United States of America - a Christian nation [ref. 1, 2, 3] - 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."

Maybe it's because my ISP is suffixed ".com"?

And that wailing "Lambuel" really is quite disturbing, too. His head spins 360 degrees on mouseover. Surely, it the work of the devil.

See... why a giraffe? I mean, I can see the elephant, okay, and the goat kinda, but a giraffe?

It's nice to know we have such important things to argue about such as 'How many nails DOES it take to crucify a Christ?'

As you can see, the same science of Game Theory that I and my fellow Defense Department tacticians used to defeat the Godless Soviets during the Cold War can be used to defeat Godlessness here in our own land. It is up to us Christians to learn and deploy this powerful weapon in our war against ignorance of the Lord.

Come on, this web site is obviously a joke.

Botheration, it's not there any more, anyone have any of it saved?

Mazarine

21:51 / 28.08.03

I give up. All my searching has only come up with a thousand and one blog entries asking the same question. Maybe I am the most gullible girl on earth- on the one hand, it could be another project by Landover Baptist, on the other, I've seen a couple places saying it's supposedly hosted by a legitimately Christian server. But I'll be honest, I'm not smart enough to sort it out, laugh and kick sand if you must. I leave it to cleverer people than myself.

Apart from "boycott Landover Baptist" banners only ever being found on satirical Christian pages, the web design is far too good for it to be real. Where's all the Comic Sans MS, the "praise the lord and send me mail" animated GIFs, the underlined text? They've even got Flash there, for Baby Jesus' sake.

From the Halloween Reclamation page:

However, while dressing up as Biblical individuals is a good way to teach about the true history of the Bible, common sense and moderation should be heeded. For instance, it would be inappropriate to appear at your door as pre-Fall Adam or Eve or as a Sodomite.

But what fun it would be!

Yeah, you're right, perhaps it isn't real. Shame. The domain registration info gives a contact e-mail address for someone working at Ideaflood.com, an intellectual property holding company. Hardly honest, godly toil ...

And check out the shopping page.

I saw. Thongs. But matrimony thongs. Still, a thong's a thong, I guess.

I really, really want the Rapture Clock.

I think the design of the site, regardless of its jokiness (oh, come ON!) is great - Lambuel is a lovely-looking little character.
