It's one of the funniest things on the Internet. What blows me away is the fact that people don't understand it's not real. Are you people that stupid? And please, spare me the "sadly, I think it's real" stuff. It's not. But it is 100 percent funny. The angry comments here and on the site are the best. I love their dedication to never giving the audience a wink or nod. I fully expect Tristan or someone from the site to respond to this by saying how "it's not fake and that I hate America" or something. Deep down, I guess I really respect how they have figured out how right-wingers think. I hope they are never exposed and I hope they keep posting. It's just that funny. My fav is how they paste Jesus' face over nudity and other horrible things. Genius! I love the Freedom Blog. It’s one of the funniest things on the Internet.

It is a sad day indeed when even this shit might be the real deal. Further, what possible motivation could be behind such deep satire is beyond me. Except for the lulz, I guess... Ya' know, back in the olde days of the internets, trolling used to mean something... *sigh* I can’t for the life of me tell if this is satire or not.

If it's not the now missing entry that stated that it was a satire, its the blatant/hilarious misspellings, unbelievably racist slurs and inimbibeably ridiculous ideas and viewpoints. A funny and semi-obvious satire that seems to catch an enormous amount of people in its net... I admit I am atheist, but surely even a mainstream white middle class respectable catholic/protestant educated car driving Christian republican could agree that this is a joke?

On their site before, in the terms and conditions, it said it was satire. It's a very good satire and they are very dedicated to it. But once you start looking at it, there's hints all over the site about it being a satire.

I have found it to be extremely useful as a practice for confronting real crazy "Christians" (I’m a Christian, and I feel that people who take the religion to dangerous extremes really aren’t) I go to a lot of protests and I never used to know what to say to people who show up and say "I think the people in Africa should die". Now I speak to them with control and eloquence, thanks to the experience I've gained from STR. Love Dearly, Hester! I still think there’s some merit to posting on Shelley.

It even spelled it out that Shelley and others are fictional characters. They removed it from the TOS now but the page did not change, thus it is most likely still true. You can see it when there are obvious mismatches between claim (STR.com hosted on Windows for example) and reality (UNIX error messages).^^ About the satire thing: STR.com had it in their TOS for a long time, that people should understand that this site is satire.
