A Small Sample of Landover Baptist Mail Received September 2003  (unedited and in original form)

Subject: Red Bull

How in the hell do you truly expect someone to put any merit into this study. In case you weren't aware of your botched experimental process, you put a bag of excstacy in the room with the study case. It was the ecstacy, not the red bull that created "enlightening" experiences in your subject. How you have the audacity to publish such an article and vouch for its validity is beyond me. The "raver" culture which you clearly have no experience in actual participation is not addicted to excstacy or red bull. If you had done any research or even attempted to perform a legit experiment, you would know this. However, this is simply a way to help you feel better about yourselves and one more thing for you to blame your followers "inconsistencies" upon. Don't quit your day jobs!

Sincerely,

Courtney Styres [courtneystyres@hotmail.com]


To Whom it may concern,

I am a college student taking World Religion as a course for my BA in Journalism. In December I must turn in a report on any religious related topic to my professor. In reading your article you it was stated from Taffy Crockett that ..."colored women don't have souls...." No, I am a Native American and non racial person. Another one was in your article on pornographic material and masturbation. Quote from Pastor Deacon Fred "The last thing we need is some media scandal as reporters click photos of colored janitors removing corpses from the Landover restrooms." Perhaps I am reading this wrong but these seem to be racial statements. Is your church saying that African American people do not have souls and are hell bound? Does this go for everyone who is not Caucasian? That's discrimination and its very illegal. And what is up with the "Unsaved are not welcomed" The church is place to be welcomed and saved. That is one of the most UN Christian statements I have ever heard & my second cousin is a Baptist minister and he doesn't make statements like that. I was raised in a United Methodist Church and never once did we turn down someone who wanted to be saved. If a person can't be saved at a church then where can they be saved. And if you are such God Fearing Bible fanatics then you would know Jesus associated with the thief's an d robbers on f the town so they could be saved. Another thing that disturbed me was the article on sterilization on handicapped children. I was born cross eyed but it went away and I wasn't demon possessed. Its called having bad eye sight. I had to have two open heart surgeries by the age of 7-1/2 in 1990 at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. Does that mean I'm going to Hell because I have a heart condition that couldn't be prevented b/c heart problems runs in my family? This have been very disturbing to me and who are you to judge someone destiny? Those who judge will be judged by God upon Judgment Day.

Sincerely,

If you folks are indeed the authors of the "Finding Nemo" article, I would caution you that in Canada you are committing a hate crime. You cannot counsel hatred against an identifiable group in Canada and since your site is available in that country you are breaking the law there. I will be forwarding a copy of the diatribe against Walt Disney to our Attorney General and the Attorney General of the United States of America for the consideration of criminal action.

You simply cannot hide behind Jesus and spew venom and hatred. You cannot call people "Jew haters". This is pure unadulterated hate. You are not Christians, no matter what you may think. Whoever wrote that awful article cannot be normal. In fact it is people like that who we tried to defeat in the last World War. Unfortunately hate cannot be eliminated completely. We must learn to live with people like yourselves. There will be no salvation for your souls because they are already so blackened by hatred they cannot be cleaned.

Christianity is not an exclusive club where some people can get in and others of your choice cannot gain entrance. Christianity is a way of thinking that embraces compassion, good works, and tolerance. I am so sorry that people can go around and call themselves Christian and not display any of the above.

I believe you can expect an enormous backlash from the words you have written. If it were my world I would certainly make your church pay for the crimes that you are committing. And any group that attempts to belittle or defame another group would be punished to the full extent of the law.

hola is this website for real??? holy fucking christ!!!! I've never read such redneck damnation. surely this is a joke!!?? Please advise?

Thanx

Now listen here you racist nazis. Jesus was black and so are you. Because everyone is related unless you forgot about Adam and Eve. Also according to the Ten Commandments you are supposed to love thy neighbor, black, white, green, or blue. And just in case you can think philosophically neighbor means fellow man. The Native Americans weren't savages the Europeans were. The Native Americans were taking baths everyday and treated the females of their tribes with respect. Which is more than I can probably say for you, seeing as most racists are abusive to their wives. What I am going to find real funny is when arrive in heaven to be judged you will be shocked to see the black guy sitting on the throne. There is a professor Geoghagen who says that unequivocally and beyond the shadow of a doubt Jesus was a black man.

I guess I should let go know so you can get to your Klu Klux Klan meeting. So I guess you will probably be burning in hell with the other white supremacists and I will be in heaven with the black Jesus.

GOD? PROVE HE EXISTS.

I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR YOUR FAST TALKING BIBLE DOUBLE-TALK RHETORIC EITHER. ACTUAL FACTUAL PROOF, I CAN SEE, HEAR, TOUCH, SMELL AND TASTE. OTHER THAN THAT, IS ALL BULLSHIT. I BELIEVE IN ME, PUT MY FAITH IN THE LIVING. AND AS FOR "THE CHURCH" AND ALL ITS HIPOCROSY, IE: DIDDLING PRIESTS, THE GREED OF THE ALL POWERFUL POPE AND HIS TREASURE TROVE HE SITS UPON IN THE VATICAN, WHILE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD GO HUNGRY, DIE, AND HAVE NOTHING, REALLY MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. HOW CAN YOU PEOPLE, SUPPOSEDLY FOR THE GOOD OF MAN , LIE TO THE WORLD, EVERY SINGLE DAY, ASKING FOR MONEY , AND FATTENING YOUR POCKETS OFF THE POOR???

IT'S TRULY AMAZING HOW MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD FALL FOR ALL THAT CRAP. THAT BOOK.. THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN AS A BOOK OF MORALS TO "CONTROL" THE MASSES VIA FEAR, IN AN AGE OF ANARCHY. HOW MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAS THE BIBLE BEEN USED TO JUSTIFY , MURDER, SLAVERY, AND OTHER UNSPEAKABLE ACTS, YET IN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, THE TEN HIGHEST "RULES", SAYS NOT TO DO THESE THINGS... OR YOU WILL PERISH AT THE HAND OF GOD.

ALL OF IT IS A BUNCH OF BULL. I ONLY WISH THERE WERE MORE PEOPLE WHO SAW THROUGH YOUR FASCADE OF DEBAUCHERY AND DECADENCE. AGAIN I SAY THIS .... GOD? ...PROVE IT.

Good Morning! WEll I live all the way down here in Miami Beach, FL but I came across your website in a search for all different types of hell houses. My church (Alpha & Omega) puts on a hell house every year and I was curious to see what everyone else was up too. I must tell you that your hell house sounds very interesting and I would love to maybe one day get the chance to go and experience it for myself. But I have some questions about your website. As I read more and more about your church it leaves me a little confused. You are Christians but you don't welcome unsaved souls?? Oh and I was wondering apporoximately how many people go through your hell house every year?? Who knows maybe one year your church and my church can collaborate and create a huge hell house down here in FL or over there where you guys are located. May the Lord continue to use you guys and may His hand always be upon you. I pray that you continue to make a difference in the world and that you guys help the world to understand that they need Christ in their lives.

Im just emailing you to offer these points

1. While I agree with you that Harry Potter is probably not beneficial for our children, book-burning is not the answer. NO one will take you seriously if you put on a rabid outlook and behave in such practices. May I suggest that scholarly debate is a much more appropriate and useful path?

2. I am a Roman Catholic, and Harry Potter is frowned upon by many Catholics as well. In fact, most prominent Catholic scholars view Harry Potter as dangerous. Please look into the facts and try not to make absurd and insulting comments about Catholicism

Yours in Christ

CS


You know, back in the day when I was actually going to church it was the pastors and idiot deacons like you have in your church that made me realize that God in all his glory probably never took into account the absolute magnitude of human stupidity. Maybe Noah should have done it right and drowned his kids along with the rest of the world...it would have saved us a lot of time afterward. Let me get this straight. You inbreds decided to conduct your own study, and drink over two thousand cases of red bull in a month? No one drinks that much energy drink, and those that do can normally handle the excess caffeen. As for the extacy...you do realize that if one of your men had overdosed, you, sir pastor, would be an absolute murderer. Not to mention labled the dumbest man alive. Extacy is illegal. Oh How I wish some police man would have pulled you over when you transported it to your place. One would wonder how YOU sir pastor, knew where to get it. You dont run your own tests like that! You dont put your own people into jeopardy to prove some insane theory about redbull being an aphrodesiac. Frankly I think your "kids" use it as an excuse to do what it is they do in the first place. In fact I'd lay money down on it. Its just the same as those witch trials in Salem, my good man, and you are being the perverbial witchhunter just looking for an excuse as to why your congregation is going to hell. Maybe Little timmy is just an oversexed kid with desires that happen to be a part of his growing anatomy. Maybe if his mother was watching little timmy more, he wouldnt be doing all that. Maybe if she explained the wonders of sex--a god made function of our bodies--to him he wouldnt go so hog wild over a few toys. What you're running, dear pastor, is a lamb's slaughter. Not even the mormons are as clueless as yourself. And sadly, dear pastor, I cant even look into the face of my baptist brothers and sisters, now that I know how absolutely low you have sunk to blame an ENERGY drink on the problems facing our youth today. The PROBLEM, dear pastor, is that parents have stopped talking to their children and started relying on everything other than themselves to teach them. The problem is they're following a pastor who knows nothing about everything instead of following God. The problem is they are too busy subjecting themseves to your whims instead of spending time with their children to better watch them. The problem is involvement. The problem is you. The only thing else I have to say is this, dear pastor. You know n othing about the world or how to better fix it. You know nothing about God or how he feels about his creation. You have no right to be teaching impressionable youths, as misguided as you are. Though the bible does say "those who are without sin may he cast the first stone", it also says to beware of false prophets and those who would lead God's children astray. And you, sir, are a false prophet, a pherosee, and an embarrassment to Christianity, to the Church, and to God himself. We all have sinned, we all have fallen short of the glory of God, but no one has missed grace further than yourself.

Dear Idiots, As a practicing Witch for over 19 years, i must admist that i was almost fooled by your "Witchcraft page".

Right now, i'm trying to determine just WHO comprises your group:

1. a bunch of ignorant Christian fuckheads who truly don't understand our Faith, and spread lies about us.

2. A bunch of "Wiccan" fuckheads who don't seem to have anything better to do with their time, other than to write bullshit like THIS.

3. A bunch of people with NO faith -- neither Christian nor Wiccan -- who, like # 2, live empty, meaningless lives, and so feel that they have to turn out this drivel.

If you're #2, you all need a good "Witch"-slapping, and i'm just the one to DO it!

I would like a response to this, as i don't understand your purpose in creating such bullshit.

Our faith has suffered enuff during the past 2,000 years -- and sites like YOURS aren't helping any!

BB,

Rev. Norm Vogel -[norm.vogel@verizon.net]


hello, i would like to say a few things about your website. i do not belive that the statements you make on your website are true, or right. how can you say that red bull is the cause of the young man's hornyness. i mean he's a teenager thats what they do. and tampons, if they are so evil then why would "god" let us make them in the first place? and the fact that you dont want unsaved people in your church is just wrong i mean how can you call yourself a good person if you dont help people in need? not everyone was brought up like you. i think you should really reconsider some of the thing that you believe. because alot of the things you are saying sound very close minded.

sincerly,

virginia fairweather


Feel free to use away, this email. I dont care.

Your mockery of christianity will haunt you for all eternity, one day, unless you wise up.

Have fun in the lake.

i have been unhappy with the quite casual clothing at our church from the pastor to the congregation. i visited your website and noticed your clothing requirements. very interesting. however, i did click on the the link to see what the fine was, and of course, i am not authorized to view that page. I am not a member of your church.

Please accept my apologies

thanks

Landover Baptist - you are a fucking bunch of assholes who only deserve to commit suicide every day of your life.

Dear Pastor, I found your article while doing a search on Halloween. I am a Christian mother of two boys. We attend church regulary, study our bibles, say our prayers, and try to live in a way that is pleasing to God. I read your article and I was mortified!! I can not believe that you have the nerve to call yourself a Christian. How could you even suggest those things? You are as close to an occult leader as I ever want to be! If someone did those things to me or my children, I would call the police! I pray that God heals your sick mind. I pray that no one actually does those things in your article. Even more disturbing, how could you say that God would send children to hell? I pity your ignorance of the BIble and of our very loving and forgiving God. There are many ways to share the gospel on Halloween to non-believers. Why sneak bibles? Why not just hand them out with a smile? Why not hand out candy with some bible verses attatched? Why not send out flyers with info about your church welcoming people to join for a day of worship? I think God would be much more pleased with those ideas. He should be portrayed as a loving, forgiving God, that loves you no matter what. You should want someone to have a pleasant comforting rememberance of the first time the were told about Jesus, not a frightening one! I pray that you and your congregation will know God and his word. May God bless your tormented heart.

Yeah I'm a Jew who stumbled upon your site... I just wanna let you know, that Halloween is not a Hebrew word. Henceforth to say that Halloween is "Hebrew for Satan Ruleth" is well incorrect. If you look at the letters of the Hebrew alphabet, none make the sound of "w" so it's pretty obvious that it's not a Hebrew.

But I can't imagine you'll take me very seriously since... well I am a Jew and well I am going to hell. But trust me, you'd have better take me seriously or I'll get me and my large Jewish family and friends (who control all the banks and the newspapers and Hollywood and the government and the Pope and Robert Deniro and Cathy Bates and Dick Cheney) to come to your church and there we will sing horrible songs to curse you and your people. So beware! The Jews are coming! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

PS this is the website where it says that Halloween is a Hebrew word:

http://www.landoverbaptist.org/news1099/hellhouse.html

PPS We also control Jerry Falwell so you shouldn't listen to him anymore as he is a puppet in the hands of the international Jewish conspiracy! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

Now, a few things, where on earth did you come from? a freakin' mad insituition? I mean first of all, your 'bible' somehow changed Jesus into a christian...now tell me this...Jesus was born in Isreal, and if you know your history and current affairs, Jesus is Jewish! You dick for brains... Now, seeing your reviews, I notice that your the bigest loner in the world, who cares what you think about those movies, what do you watch? tele tubies? great movie eh? You anal badger... I mean, you have links saying "Jesus said: burn these books" i mean...are you jesus? does jesus talk to you??? I bet you'd like to sleep with him wouldn't you...One more thing, please please do not share your wet dreams about Jesus to us, keep it to yourself...You are one big shame to humanity, you sick fuck, I actaully wonder, do you even deserve to be a human? Wait, forget that, do you even deserve to exist? Seriously look over your site again and contemplate about how big of a douche bag you are. You probaly have a ding dick with no life...go cry me river and stop complaining to God, he's proably bleeding his ears off listening to you.

P.S. -You suck at the internet, religion and puberty...you know what...to sum it all, you suck at life... shuddup, stop whinning and go drink some wine, bread and some holy piss water....have fun! while we drink the real stuff..you friggin loser.

This e-mail is in reguard to the October 1999 "Hell House." () I was reading what methods you used. As one Christian to another... I DO NOT approve of what image you have put upon us Christians. Litterally whipping people until they accept Christ. It is supposed to be their decission, not a forcefull experience. Some of the methods used were VERY unbiblical. This experience should be a breath-taking (not because they are physically harmed) time because they have noticed that they are without God, not because you fourced them into it, but because you showed it to them. It is churches like yours that makes it hard for the non-saved to listen to what we are trying to teach. Expect an e-mail from my youth minister and pastor with some Bible references to show that your methods contridict the Bible ! that you preach.

~ Jonathan Standifer

P.s. If this e-mail should NOT be directed to you, please send me the proper e-mail address, or a reply that this is who I should send it to. I will send this once a week untill I receive a reply. I am very upset with what you church has done.


Your article on Tips to give a child a good Christian Beating is not only abusive in nature, but the picture explaining about using electrodes on toddlers to find the most sensitive spot is beyond comprehension.

You call yourself Chrisian? WHERE in the bible do you see Jesus Christ beating children?

You are a sick, warped and sadistic people. I am closer to God than you THINK you are.

I thank God daily that I don't believe in Churches...........................just how hypocritical, bigoted and two-faced can you possibly get?
