Brain-melting flash design for Christian websites

The designers over at Sharper FX seem to be making their living by creating the most psycho and over the top intros to Christian websites.

Salvation through retinal brutality.

Perhaps they're hoping you'll see God while experience induced seizures.

I bet all that flickering hides some nasty subliminal messages that are going to turn us all into fundamentalist zombies.

They put the flash in Flash.

But I've got to admit, those animations are fun to watch. That doesn't mean that it's a good idea though. Flash intros on web sites need to go away forever.

Wow, so over the top, it plays as satire. I'm thinking that these pastors are going to have to warn the elderly and weak-hearted in their congregations away from visiting the church's website. Is this really what these churches want as their online public face? Color me dazed and bemused.
