* God said 640x480 16 color graphics is a covenant like circumcision.
* God said to use a single audio voice -- a single frequency with waveforms and, maybe, amplitude envelope.

seems he thinks Jesus was a Commodore 64. I'm not into judging people's religions but I will say that's definitely an unusual interpretation of the relevant texts.)
Also, the KJV-only perspective is misguided given the textual scholarship that renders KJV as somewhat outdated.
Yes. The lone author is supposedly schizophrenic.

If this is all just a joke it's a very elaborate one.
Wait for what? That's more or less me and I've read some of his writings. He looks like a man who struggles with mental illness. What kind of cartoon characters are you imagining people like me behave like?
I'm really sorry if this comes across as making fun of someone's mental illness; that's not my goal.
On the contrary, I got that point, but it seemed like you expected some sort of Hollywood caricature of how conservative Christians behave. A mature Christian would not be surprised by contradiction or hypocrisy, especially if mental illness is involved. Being a good person is not a requirement to be a Christian. In fact, the people with the most obvious problems tend to be the most eager admit their failings and work on their issues. Christ actually had the harshest things to say to the self-righteous.
In other words, the Westboro fools are pretty much the opposite of how a Christian is taught to be. In fact, I'd be surprised if some of them don't have mental health issues of their own.
I encourage you to read up on Christian theology a bit more, then. And maybe make friends (or a better friends) out of more evangelicals so you can understand them a bit better.
No big deal, just amusing.

Interestingly, there's a passage in the book of Romans about this sort of thing. That's pretty much the right attitude. The relationship with the person is more important than bickering over whether 'demon' is a big deal or not.
Especially as a) there is at least one "Christian Linux" distro, and b) TempleOS has very, very little in common with linux. Furthermore, in intent, I think it was very much a "Temple Operating System" and not a suitable comparison to an extremely versatile computational platform.
