Pastor Jeff Meyers made the news several years ago by reporting in jest that you could hear someone reciting the Westminster Confession of Faith on one of her CDs, through backward masking. Much to his chagrin, CT picked his comments up as a serious news item.
You may also be aware that Chinese bootlegs of Star Wars Episode III contained faulty subtitles which mistranslated "Jedi Council" as "Presbyterian Church," as can be seen in a screen capture here:
Whenever the "continue reading" link comes one line into the post, I know something like this is going on.
And the Chinese translation of "jedi council" to "presbyterian church" is probably due to the number of police raids defeated by "these are not the Christians you're looking for".

I love Tim, because Timothy Baker Bayly is an anagram for: "Batty homily ye bark".

Funny, I would have argued that such an anagram, if anything, is a pretty good argument for the Baptist view.
On the other hand, if we're going to do guilt by association, I would be chargrined to remember that Mrs. Federline was raised a Southern Baptist.
(we do need to hold to proper patriarchy here and use her correct name, don't we?)
