Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Parody
I\ufffdd like to point out for the record that this steaming pile of blatant misogyny is a parody. Read the comments from the supposed \ufffdeditors,\ufffd which are sheer lunacy even by Southern Baptist standards. Also, google \ufffdRockdale, Georgia.\ufffd It\ufffds not a town, it\ufffds a county. A search for \ufffdThe Second Baptist Church of Rockdale\ufffd yields similar results: that church doesn\ufffdt exist. Sam Brownback, however, is real, and it appears that the quotations that are attributed to him are also real. So, the obvious intent of the parody is to expose what a creepy, anti-choice whackjob he is by amplifying his comments. It\ufffds pretty typical. I don\ufffdt find it particularly amusing though, as I was raised Southern Baptist and have witnessed that kind of woman-hating vitriol firsthand on multiple occasions.

New Perhaps. It would be nice to think so.
On the other paw, what exactly is "sheer lunacy even by Southern Baptist standards"? I have a brother who is a Virginia baptist snake oil salesman and he's crazier than a shithouse rat. I'm totally unconvinced that this is a joke. My sense of humor has been totally buggered in the past few years so I wouldn't bet highly on its reliability. Go with your best guess...
New Re: Perhaps. It would be nice to think so.
I think it is a parody because it doesn't look like the Second Baptist Church of Rockdale, where they supposedly held a fund-raiser, exists.

Also, when I posted a comment on the site, the phrase 'entertaining parody' was removed as profanity.

New At least you didn't get: **UnChristian filth removed** :-)
New I suppose that it could be parody being too effective.
Still, "Also, when I posted a comment on the site, the phrase 'entertaining parody' was removed as profanity." would be consistent with real nutters. I would be delighted to be wrong, but I still kinda doubt it.
New It's parody.
There's no doubt. It works so well because it's so close to being real.

The LEGAL STATEMENT on each of the pages says:

Many antogonists on the political Left would like to call it political satire so perhaps everything posted here should be understood in that context. Whatever it takes to keep their tiny brains from overloading.


The carefully misplaced spelling helps, a little, doesn't it?

Have a look at [link|http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Poe's+Law|Poe's Law] (via a thread at [link|http://richarddawkins.net/articleComments,1505,Scarlet-Letter-Campaign-Update-A-Victory,Tobin-Maker-Resident-Pastor-Baptists-for-Brownback-2008,page2|Richard Dawkin's Blog]).

Another discussion of Poe's Law is at [link|http://objectiveministries.org/pastorscorner/|Objective: Ministries]. They say:

God is the Creator and Supreme Ruler of the Universe and all that is in it. God is a Singular, Eternal, and Infinite being Who is composed of three Co-Equal Persons (the Trinity): the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. The manifestations and roles of these Co-Equal Persons are distributed according to the following Divine Org Chart:

HTH! :-)

Cheers,
Scott.
New Thanks, I'm happy to be wrong.
All this is a little outside my sense of humor to begin with, and said sense hasn't been working particularly well. I read that legal statement too, and came away with a different take.
I may trade my brain in on a corned beef sandwich...

New Well researched!
It had me fooled, but then I didn't dig at all. I'm happy to be proven wrong, too.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
