 OBJECTIVE: Landover Baptist Shutdown | FAQ
Landover is trying to pass itself off as a real Baptist church in order to spread misconceptions about Christians in general and Baptists in particular, as well as perverting the message of Jesus so as to make it unpalatable to people ignorant of the Lord.
Landover apologists argue that Americhrist Ltd. -- the scoundrels behind Landover -- are just engaging in "satire", but this is not the case.
What the people behind Landover are instead doing is intentionally saying things that they know will elicit strong emotional reactions in groups susceptible to disbelief -- for instance slandering singing groups popular with teens -- while linking these obvious lies with the word "Christian", thereby inculcating anti-Christianity in the hapless readers.

Truly the two most dishonest moves I've encountered in recent times (from atheists) have been the letters discrediting the Murray-O'Hair family, saying they had stolen a large sum of money from the organization, and the recent attempt by Kim Shultz to use our registered service mark as the title of her personal web page.
Landover's playful satire of Fundamentalist Christianity is child's play -- almost legitimate (and perfectly legal) -- in comparison to these (highly illegal) attempts to steal, in all seriousness, somebody's very reputation.
