I found this link and I laughed out loud. I wanted to share it with people who are gay and people who are not, so we could all laugh at the ignorance and, dare I say, stupidity of people who somehow think they know anything. Please, all gay people, tell me if this is at all familiar to you. http://www.landoverbaptist.org/news0101/shake.html

I'm only half-gay, do I still get to comment? *giggles* I was first introduced to the Landover site a few years back actually, but I was told that it wasn't meant to be serious. Is it? Are there really people this stupid? As for the handshake bit, I don't think I've been to that particular page before. That's hilarious! =p

So you didn't get the memo either? LOL. Unfortunately, I think it is real. I know the Landover Baptist Church is a real church.

Yeah, my brother was totally offended that he didn't get the memo. It seems that the "homosexual agenda" has just passed him by. LOL Yes the site is creepy, but it seems that even the fundies don't believe it. That is a good sign

I wonder if the fundies have a handshake? We all know they have an agenda, but I never wondered about a handshake before?

I am very happy to report the the Landover Baptist Church is NOT real. Thankfully. It is sad though that when you see it, you can imagine that people are that ignorant. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landover_Baptist_Church

I did some research and found that it is indeed satire. From what I understand, the site owners love it when people think it's real and start agreeing with them. Interesting. Thanks for the update.

I should have stated that this website for the Landover Baptist Church is not real......I suppose there is a Baptist Church in Landover, Maryland......

Is this a real site for christians as I could not believe what I was reading. Get a free mobile phone if you sign up with Jesus, I was gobsmacked. As for the handshakes, that was hysterical. My partner is always doing number 3 to me...now I get it!!hee hee

From what I understand, the landover baptist church is a real church. The website does seem satirical, though. We can only hope. The problem, though, is whether it is for real or not, there are some who will always believe the outragous. I take it you didn't get the memo either.

What a load of trash from a supposedly Christian Church! I am sorry but I could never belong to a church that was so bigoted and ignorant - I only hope that others do not take this as 'gospel' - and yes that pun was intended , after all that is nowhere near as stupid as this website! xxx

The sad part is the people who really believe it. I would love to hear from one or two. LOL

If I wasn't laughing so hard I think I would be offended! Too much! The part about who will play the "girl" during s*x brought back so many memories of my straight friends and their questions. Too many times I have been asked, "Who plays the male role in your relationship?" Duh, neither of us, we are both women and always act as women. There are no males in our relationship!! I just chalk up ideas such as this as coming from blissful people. Ignorance being bliss! PEACE

I am not homosexual nor do I love them, but surely there are better ways to tell that a person is a homosexual, like the way two men interact with each other, for instance? Or the way, one acts more like a woman than a man, or their closeness is more than that of two buddies or the way one takes a male role and the other a female role or they announce that they are? But a handshake, well that is rather silly. Anyone can do a funny handshake.

I agree it's silly. Even sillier still are the people who would believe it. Thanks for responding and it is nice to see you and I can agree on one thing. Perhaps if we search, we'll be able to find other common ground.
