Fran dont let the screwballs get to you, if they can coil one of their warped tendrils around your sensible aura then what hope the rest of us!

I say as long as they aren't harming anyone then good luck to them, these beliefs seem to be like a security blanket to them.

Gravity is a myth. The earth just sucks.
My grandparents were super-religious, so things like this don't surprise me. It did take me a long time to realize that religion doesn't make people crazy, it's just that some of the crazy people take it in a religious direction.

Sorry to break it to everyone but the website is a parody, just look on the wikipedia page. Though I do have to admit it is quite fun to tell people to look on the site without telling them it's fake. Funnily enough, both youtube and the onlinebookclub are blocked websites at my school, while landover baptist is not.

Well I for one can sleep better knowing this.....Wait, I get it this is all a ploy to further the Landover Baptists agenda. Run for the hills and hide your daughters we've been infiltrated.

As the poet Charles Pierre Baudelaire or in more recent memory Keizer Soze said "The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he doesn't exist.".
"When the give you things, ask yourself why.
When you're grateful to them for giving you the things you should already have anyway, ask yourself why."

My school is very strict with their online acces. Its reason for banning onlinebookclub is that it is uncatergorized/ a message board. They probably just missed Landover Baptist.

My job has onlinebookclub banned as well... somehow it is categorized as a game website. Not sure how its a game, but oh well.. I'll just get on at home.
