I must admit that I had no idea such sites existed. They certainly seem to be whacked out.

From jesus-is-saviour:
"Oprah Winfrey is of the Devil."
"Pastor Fred Phelps comes a whole lot closer to being right than MOST pastors in America today"
"God Hasn't Lifted His Ban Against Walt Disney"
"Adding fuel to the fire are racy TV shows like Dawson's Creek and Popular, which depict teen sex as exciting and normal"
This is not a parody site. The author of the site is crippled, yet interestingly praying hasn't worked and he is reliant on the same doctors he denounces for pain relief.

The content is so crazy too, e.g. "If you are using the New International Version (NIV) of the Bible, and continue to do so after reading this article, then you are truly blinded by Satan, or just don't care." then "If I had a billion dollars, I'd make an offer to churches all across America. I'd exchange brand new King James Bibles for their perverted NIVs."
Sheesh! Does anyone know what their gripe is with the NIV? It's the most fundy-friendly modern translation available. It often fudges the translations to avoid letting the contradictions show through. In fact, they show through much better in the King James Version.
Checking through a few of their links, I couldn't find anything about the NIV bible. I did find one sermon slagging all modern translations because they use the Westcott-Hort Greek text, in other words a text based on a careful comparison of the oldest manuscripts. The author thinks they should have stuck to the old Textus Receptus, the best that was available in the day of King James, based on a few not-very-good manuscripts copied over and over again in the medieval period. Among other things, the modern translations (including NIV) suggest that the snake-handling passage at the end of Mark does not belong in the bible.

I thought of a few, then realised they're all more scary than funny. Especially the Rapture Ready Forums. There was a woman there (might still be) who buried her dead child in her back yard so when the Rapture happens and he rises from his grave he'll know where he is. So many things wrong with that. Poor woman.
And then there was another guy who hangs out at the cemetery every day because he thinks it will be cool to see all the dead rising when it happens.
