OBJECTIVE: Christian Ministries
OBJECTIVE: Christian Ministries is a web site that presents an elaborate parody of Christian fundamentalism.
The site disguises its true origins by presenting ads and links to genuine Christian sites and news, by including a voluminous section on creationism and a Christian youth rock ministry, and by running a campaign for the shutdown of Landover Baptist, another well-known but much easier to spot Christian parody site. OBJECTIVE: Christian Ministries has occasionally had success in deceiving viewers: for a while it was hosted on a Christian web hosting service, and a well-known atheist has written an article denouncing it [1].
Several organizations mentioned on the site, including Mt. Fellowship Baptist Church, Fellowship University, League of Women Boycotters and the National Association of Christian Game Theoreticians, do not exist.
The site runs a campaign against triclavianism, proposes to add the word "God" to the Flag of the United States and to rename the secularized Christmas to "Santamas", and teaches children to "tell a parent or pastor" when they spot an atheist. Their gift store sells anti-triclaviansim shorts and a matrimony thong sporting the text "Will you be my husband?"
The site has been around since 2000, hosted by various services. As of January 2005, it was hosted by the free web hosting company web1000 which also registered the jesussave.us domain; this domain is used by numerous other web1000-hosted sites as well.
