whaaa?

bbc article about a church set up in the name of spongebob squarepants. i kid you not.

though i looked up the group and found their website. seems like it's probably a hoax, but a fairly elaborate one. they really put a lot of effort into it. if you want to give it a look, it's www.churchofspongebob.org (i don't know how to do more that one link per post, you'll just have to copy and paste). i think my favorite part is that the supposed followers are called "Absorbants." hee.
