Good As You

That's vile. I don't know...I went to the website, and it seems like it's a genuine bit of obscenity.

Can I get some Purell? Ewwww!

OMG! Seriously first reaction when i heard the chorus? Burst out laughing. WTF is wrong with this dude? For so very much hating gays, he sure seems like one, i dont think I can hit those notes. Yea- wow. I 'love' how it seems all like Christian and shit and then he bursts into the whole "God hates fags".....wow.

Dude, VILE and HILARIOUS. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. If it is real, damn. Damn, damn.

I watched the video and kept thinking "God, I hope this is a joke". I went to the website, and I don't think it is. Its one of those things that would be funny except for the fact that it affects the lives or real people. I have to say that I think even James Dobson and Pat Robertson would cringe from that song.

Did you catch who was on the list of bands who are homosexual influences on children? The Doors? Cole Porter?!!!!

Clearly not a joke - sadly I think. And WHAT is with his labeling Oscar Wilde as a "reformed" homosexual - what, because the man converted to Catholocism on his deathbed it makes him "ex-gay"? Not to mention including Metallica, which may be the most hetero band EVER, as a "gay band" - clearly clueless.

I almost said that he looked like a 'fag' on there, but then I would just be spreading the hate. Watch his other youtube vid, if he doesn't scream "MO!" then fairies will fly out of my ass.

Wow. It shows how truly far-gone the far right-wing is: you honestly can't tell a parody from the real thing anymore, and I thought O'Reilly/Colbert was bad...

I've watched the guy's other video on youtube, and I'm leaning towards parody, but it is dang close. He's not going so far as to make it obvious, which is makes it all the worse (better?).

Wow. this guy has serious issues. He actually thinks that his song is going to be a hit? I think only in his little world, it will be. I don't think his song will get any further than Youtube.

This is not a joke. Go to: http://www.lovegodsway.org

Ex-gays. Ugh.

What is amusing is their list of gay bands! Metallica made that list (is anyone actually gay in that band?).

Come on people, you can't honestly believe this is serious. It's clearly a parody. Ravi Shankar and Frank Sinatra on the list of "gay bands"? I know it's a sensitive subject for us, but have we completely lost our perspective? (Not to mention our sense of humor?)

Unfortunately the song, the band, the websites--- it's just too complex to be a ruse. The guy is for real. You better believe it. The are indeed people out there like him.

It is too elaborate NOT to be a ruse.

Hey, i see the youtube video has been deleted. I uploaded it and only found it it was deleted today.
Its still hosted here though:

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1804808808

Oh please, it's not serious. If it was for real it'd have a lot more concrete information on the website(s), like about the whole C.H.O.P.S. thing, a street address or at least a mailing address, probably a phone number and, of course, most oddly lacking, a request for financial support! What kind of oddball Christian ministry isn't looking for a hand out? There's stuff about a "national network of online Christian ministries" but no info on how to get in touch with them other than a gmail address. Jeez, how tough do you think it is to put up a few fairly decently designed websites anyway?

I'm not really sure what the project is all about at this point, maybe promoting some movie, or maybe just promoting the project itself in a more nebulous way (think lonelygirl15). There's clearly some money being spent on the thing, but to what end it's not clear. Anyway, bottom line for me: it's hilarious.

Oh, and the video can still be viewed here: http://www.eveningservice.com/Video

if you do a WHOIS on his website and the 2 others it links to, it's very clear it's all fake. For example, eveningservice.com claims they just signed with lovegodsway.org and if you look them up they were both registered the same day (oct 25th) using GoDaddy and domainsbyproxy.com to hide his personal information.

FAKE!

If you were singing "god hates fags" would you give out your address???

oh and to the person who said "theres clearly been some money spent on this". Incorrect.
I found the video, and posted it on myspace and youtube. It was deleted off Youtube within 24 hours, but before that their myspace had less than 200 views total, and the video that was embedded on their site had less than 100 views. I posted it on myspace and linked it on a few sites like Digg etc and it went from there.
If this is fake, they were doing an extremely shit job in marketing it. Its new found fame is down to me.

Obviously they're not spending money on promotion. With a song and video so brilliantly designed to offend everyone they can rely on people like you, Xihilisk, to spread the word for free. I suspect that this is part of the concept of the project anyway--to just let it happen in an ad hoc, "viral" way.

What I meant about spending money was the production costs for the song, video and websites. It's certainly cheesy but the song is well-produced from a technical standpoint, same with the video. These things usually cost money (musicians, studio time, engineers, video crew, editing, etc.). The websites, not so much, but someone probably got paid something to do it, even if they just used a template--check this out:

I'm actually quite curious about the time line of how this video has spread. Would you mind sharing when and how you first found it?

Folks, don't get too bent out of shape, THIS IS A JOKE. The point, I suspect, is to illustrate just how bizarrely the church deal with the subject at hand. If you think this is real then YOU are part of the joke and the illustration.
