Penthouse, bigchurch.com and adultbondage.com? I laughed
Penthouse Gets Pious

snippets

1. So it may surprise users that BigChurch.com has a decidedly promiscuous corporate parent: Penthouse Media Group Inc.

2. Its subsidiaries now include a number of online dating sites—from BigChurch.com to Bondage.com—that have signed up a combined 250 million members since they were founded and 1.2 million current subscribers who pay for content. Its biggest, AdultFriendFinder.com—which bills itself as "the world's largest adult sex and swingers site"—is one of the most highly trafficked Web sites in the world with more than 18 million members

3. So where does Penthouse fit in? Its name recognition can help cut through the Internet clutter. "Penthouse is a worldwide trademark and we see opportunity in combining our brands," Bell says. BigChurch.com, meet LikeMyNudePhoto.com

I have no problem with it. I just think it's funny.
And, I think it's funny because I wonder what the fundies who join bigchurch.com would be thinking after they read this article and realized that big church was owned by one of satan's minions.

1. On-line dating just cracks me up.
I know so many people who utilize those services. Sometimes I think that I may be the only person I know who hasn't at least signed up on one of those things.

And I have seen some hilarious results (I am in Marin, you know).
