Product Description

Hold on to your Bibles, folks! You are about to be raptured into the gut-busting, demon-stomping insanity of God's Favorite Church, Landover Baptist - the web's ultimate religious spoof. In the sacred and honorable tradition of The Onion comes a hilarious collection of outrageous news, graphics and games that gleefully skewers America's very own Taliban, the evangelical right. Pastor Deacon Fred, Mrs. Betty Bowers, America's Best Christian(tm), Pastor Harry Hardwick and the rest of the pew-jumping, finger-pointing crazies at Landover Baptist Church (Guaranteeing Salvation Since 1620!) provide a sharply written book full of uproarious words and images. With its shocking exposes, X-rated bible quizzes, scandalous sidebars and mug shots of America's damned, "Welcome to Jesusland!" is sure to become a classic of religious and political humor, taking its rightful place next to the Holy Bible as essential reading in all of America's hotel nightstands.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Saved My Life!!!, September 29, 2006

By	Shawn Sparlin "Landover Christian" (Freehold, IA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been an athiest for 10 years. I bought this book 2 weeks ago, and read it from cover to cover the first night!! I have now accepted Jesus as my personal Lord & savior thanks to Pastor Deacon Fred and Brother Harry Hardwick's tear jerking sermons.

My son, who is 14, took up the offer on page 3 to "Accept Jesus Christ as Your Personal Lord and Savior and Get a Free Playstation 3" promotion. He has been enjoying his Playstation, and his new friendship with Jesus, ever since.

Anyone wishing to get to know God on a much more personal basis should buy this book. I was so excited, I bought 5 more copies to give to local libraries, so generations to come can learn the TRUE gospel of Jesus Christ.

Enjoy.

When you aren't walking across hot coals, speaking in tongues, or handling more than one snake, I highly recommend you read this inspirational work of art. Buy a copy of this book for each room of your house, and place it next to your Bibles. This is a MUST have book for all people of faith!
God Bless Betty Bowers and Landover Baptist!
Can I get an "AMEN"?!

5.0 out of 5 stars GLORY TO GOD!!!, September 12, 2006

By	Wes (World Citizen, Earth) - See all my reviews

Praise Jesus. Praise Him for he has delivered, through Pastor Deacon Fred, a book that all true Christians can feel safe and proud to pass around Sundays at church. I remember standing amidst the moral FILTH at something called "GAMOW" in Washington, DC a couple of years ago. I cannot tell you how troubled and deeply disturbed I felt standing around such ungodly folk. It made my personal commitment to Christ stronger than ever. Not only that, but through God's Own Messenger, Pastor Deacon Fred, that connection is even stronger. Oh, Glory. This nation, this world needs REVIVAL. And the closest thing to administering the word of God and Jesus is LANDOVER BAPTIST. There is truly no greater representative of Christianity around today. I cannot tell you all the blessings conferred upon me and mine than through our solemn and sacred affiliation with this mighty force for the Lord. Again, ALL Christians need to get with this for we are living in the End Times. Get Saved. Buy and study this magnificent, Holy Word. God Bless Landover Baptist, God Bless George W Bush, and GOD BLESS JESUS CHRIST!!!
