Subject: Apple Satire (not really) Off Topic

This is not a satire site; these people are for real.

Well, it looks like they aren't for real after all. MacObserver did some fact-checking, and it sounds like a hoax.
According to http://www.macobserver.com/article/2002/04/22.4.shtml:

"Er, wrong. While many people over the Web who have linked to this 'article' seem convinced that there's a genuine motive behind this, it looks like a hoax. Despite the convincing use of a real Christian free Web hosting service and genuine Christian popup ads, the giveaways are to be found elsewhere on the site:

* There are some poorly Photoshopped images of rallies,
* No such Baptist church as "Mt. Fellowship" appears to exist,
* The fact that many members have e-mail addresses with nonexistent domain names,
* Also, all the "Dr. Richard Paleys" of the world appear to be in fields other than divinity and 'theobiology'.

Sorry, guys; put away the flamethrowers. It's an amusing parody, though, and well worth a read."
