Default For Real or a Spoof?

I recently found this site: www.jesus-is-lord.com
I have no idea if this is a spoof or if they are for real here...
Sometimes it seems like a spoof sometimes it seems like they really believe everything they say.

Help?

I'm guessing spoof. But its not a very funny one.... Here is a passage i found slightly funny.

Quote:
And another word for you, precious lamb. This is a warning for you. The hundreds of modern Bible versions are perversions of the scriptures. Many of them have the audacity to say that they are the most accurate. That is a lie. They claim to be easy to understand but I am here to tell you that you can understand the AUTHORIZED King James Bible. My daughter requested straight King James Bible reading when she was two years old and was reading it herself at three years old. You can understand the King James Bible. The Father will help you. Cursor down on this current page for articles on heaven, hell, false churches to avoid, and much more. Do not spend too much time on the internet and don't read blasphemy. Much of what is on this page is for those in sin. I do not want you to read everything that is here, be careful. I wrote these things back when I was confronted with these many errors. Pray, read your Bible, do good, and fall in love with Jesus. Cleave to the scriptures. They will keep you safe. I commit you to the love of God.

I guess real, and pretty offensive. Poes aren't generally that mean or nasty.

Yeah I consider myself good at picking Poe's and I don't think this is one. I've come across real people with these kinds of views and manner of expression. I'd vote real.

Sounds like your typical Sunday Sermon to me... and I've been to a lot of them.

I vote real!

What about Landover Baptist? And GodHatesGoths? They were both spoofs but very nasty...

I've seen, and spoken with, self-avowed christians who would have nothing but agreement with the site.
