[Linux4christians] False Teachers

[Eddy]

After reading this site, I am convinced that it is a fake site, that
is she (if it is a she) is simply spreading a bunch of (potentially
damaging) Foolishness (yes, with a capital 'F'). The Bible has harsh
words for Fools and that includes the futility of trying to get them
to quit their foolishness. Yes, it is probably intended to get casual
browsers to think Christians are crazy (like they need any help...).
Right up the same alley as Landover Baptist and Objective Ministries.
My advice? Stay away. Prayers would be wasted breath, and any
engagement would be akin to fighting a tar-baby. My apologies for
failing to find any humor in it. Much like a self-wrecking train
built by Boeing would not be funny.
