I'd say its pretty clear that the page was an intricate spoof which
someone put together to take advantage of the fact that the hosting
company apparently offers free hosting for religious content. Judging
by the fact that almost all of the articles were devoted to bashing
another parody religious site, I'd guess therein lies the link...
For example, I'm guessing (just guessing, mind you) that there is no
`National Association of Christian Game Theoreticians', nor do the other
organizations mentioned on the page show up in google.
At any rate, the page has since gone 404...
