Ummm.. Sounds like a pretty, well, GAY hobby to me.
Similar to Murphy's Law, Poe's Law concerns internet debates, particularly regarding religion or politics. "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing." In other words, No matter how bizzare, outrageous, or just plain idiotic a parody of a Fundamentalist may seem, there will always be someone who cannot tell that it is a parody, having seen similar REAL ideas from real religious/political Fundamentalists.
Wow, all those suggestions and not a single mention about the buttplug in the shoebox under the bed in the spare room....
Methinks you kinda missed the point.The author intentionally aimed all of his writing at getting a rise out of people. His notions are clearly rediculous, and intentionally so. I think it is dumb to stereotype right wing christians because of this guys stereotyping of gays.
Ok...I sort of have to laugh at this. Only because it is so disturbing that some of the things they list. Frequent trips to Asia? I guess I missed that in the Gay Manual they gave me when I came out. Along with my free toaster.
A close reader of ChristWire will soon figure out (one hopes) that the site is not serious. But many of the columns are deft enough, just plausible enough, to fool the casual reader. Even or perhaps especially a reader whose beliefs are being mocked.

The same Troy McClure who appeared in such feature films as "Today We Kill, Tomorrow We Die" and "Gladys, the Groovy Mule"?Hi I'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such educational films as "Lead Paint: Delicious But Deadly," and "Here Comes the Metric System!"
The New York Times today has an article on Christwire. Apparently the article under discussion here has made the site famous.
