If you think that was bad, you should see some of the stuff they put out before the internet put their absurdity up for public scorn:

DAVID LIEBE HART IS AN AMERICAN TREASURE!
No, he's probably a psycho, but people know him mainly fom Tim&Eric and Check It Out. He added my sister on twitter out of the blue, and apparently if you give him your number, he'll call you up and talk about aliens. So yeah, he's crazy.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Don't forget the absurdly hilarious chick tracts. You've heard of them, right? There's an atheist youtube channel ( https://www.youtube.com/user/TheBibleReloaded) that regularly reads through them, laughing at the absurdity all the way.

I feel like I've just walked into my bedroom to see my parents fucking on my bed. ??. Horrible. Just... Horrible. I won't believe it. It's all some sort of trick!

To answer your question in the OP, yes, Bibleman is really something made by and for Fundamentalist Christians. Apparently, the plan is to marry the campy nature of the 1960s Batman series, and the biblical message of Veggietales. Naturally, this leaves much to be desired.
And, interestingly enough, there is a surprising torrent of Anti-semitism:

And here's an entire episode where Bibleman fights against an atheistic Jewish stereotype:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6viRSBZ4H5A
Jef Scott, who plays these stereotypes has defended them on these grounds:
Quote:Dear Jennifer,
Thank you for attending our latest Bibleman Live Adventure. My name is Jef Scott. I portray the Wacky Protestor in the Bibleman episodes, as well as the voice in the live show. You are correct, in that the Wacky Protestor is a carbon copy of Jerry Lewis' character, The Nutty Professor. I have been a Jerry Lewis fan for my whole life and have studied his style of film making extensively.
Knowing the boundaries we must keep in check while we produce the Bibleman episodes, I am very conscious of the villain's actions. The Nutty Professor film makes absolutely no mention of him being a person of the Jewish faith. It is true that Jerry Lewis is of the Jewish faith, but not this particular character he portrays.
Our intention is using this character is to create a conflict that can have a positive message and solution, sending the importance of Jesus Christ's Word to our children, as well as adults. We design the episodes to have many levels, so that a family can watch together and (hopefully) be entertained on these many levels.
Again, we appreciate your support and understand that our privilege, is to serve Jesus Christ.
Sincerely,
Jef Scott Executive Music Producer/ Pamplin Entertainment
Just how he justified Sammy Davey is a question for the ages.

That should be scientifically tested.
