Donnie Davies has produced and publicized this incredibly homophobic, religious music video.

Is this an elaborate satirical hoax, or have we really come to this level of Nazi-esque art?

Answer 1

Look at the main page:
http://www.eveningservice.com/

That is a site that links to funny things, but also contains information about church-related activities. The info page on that page had a link to this site:
http://www.lovegodsway.org/
where there is complaining about the video not being shown:

"MySpace made it clear, dear Friends, that censorship is alive in America. Even Google chose to take down our band's fine, fine video because it violated their sense of a community standard. It is regrettable that community standards must override Freedom of Expression in a time where powerful, hypnotic mass media is incredibly effective at manipulating public opinion."

Note that, on the same site that bemoans this loss of Freedom of Expression (upon which community guidelines do not infringe), there is a list of bands to which parents should not allow their kids to listen:

I don't think it's a hoax, but I could be wrong. Whether it is or not, it isn't funny.

Answer 2

If it is a hoax it is a very elaborate one. I just spent about 15 minutes on their website and could not find anything to point towards a hoax. Disturbing to say the least.

Answer 3

Hmm the radio station I was listening to the other day played that song, everyone thought it was disgusting. No one could figure out if it was a hoax or not. Personally, I do not think it is.

Answer 4

It's a complete hoax...don't take it seriously. You can tell by the emphasis he puts on certain words. Not to mention it doesn't even look like a real music video of any kind.

Just my two cents.

Answer 5

I checked out his web site. He got a self proclaimed ministry; even gripes about censorship and how google even took him off their site.

Listen, GOD LOVES YOU!

I'm a Christian and He LOVES ME, TOO.

When I sin even as a Christian I displease Him, and can get out of fellowship with Him.

I need to ask His forgiveness to restore fellowship with Him.

When the homosexual (or adulterer, fornicator, or anyone else who commits any kind of sexual sin outside of marriage; or really ANY sin) also needs to repent and ask His forgiveness to be able to fellowship with Him.

But THIS VIDEO? NOT FROM GOD! From the mind of Donnie Davies!

Answer 6

It's a sick attempt at humor...if you follow the link you can just barely see in the corner of the frame with the video, there is a link to some other comedy videos...

Answer 7

Well, he might just ben one of those crazy people (like those nuts who preach on the streets about the apocalypse or some far-fetched prophecy) who think he has a church with many followers. And in his warped mind, it's true. My mom was like that.

Answer 8

I think this video is a parody song. I base this mostly on the other material found on the site (Dave Chappelle stand-up and Jon Stewart).

I could be wrong, but that's what I think... and dearly hope.

Answer 9

From what it appears to me, he was completely serious. I went to his website, and it says right there that Google refuses to show his video because it violated community standards. I can only surmise that it's because it is hateful.

Answer 10

Please, do not believe for one moment that any born again, bible believing Christian would ever in a million years sing the words "God hates a (homosexual....yahoo blanked out the word the video used!)". This is a complete hoax. God loves each of us, but He does not condone sin.

Yes, the bible says homosexuality is a sin. This is not the way God would have it addressed. A true Christian speaks His word in love....this is truly awful.
