I don't think it is.

I'd forgotten about this site, but a year old thread on another forum reminded me of it. It is right up there with the anti Landover Baptist site, but all of the links are to legitimate right wing and Christian sites. As loony as it seems, I think it is legit.
An excerpt:
05/01/2002 - More Evidence Against Wal-Mart
Not only is Wal-Mart targeting our youth with prurient and outright pornographic "reading" material, but they are also facilitating hackers by selling so-called "naked PCs" on their website. While this sounds like more computer pornography, naked PCs -- or computers of questionable legality sold without an installed and licensed operating system -- are actually more pernicious in that they are used by members of the Free Source cult to create hacking tools for disabling filtering software. Walmart.com even promotes the use of these hacking tools (popularly known as "Linix") in conjunction with the naked PCs they sell. Furthermore, when not being used for hacking, these naked PCs are used for running computer operating systems (such as the standard Microsoft Windows or alternate systems like Apple Macintosh) without paying for the proper licenses -- in other words, theft. Does this sound like a wholesome business to you?
04/05/2002 - Boycott Of Walmart.com
Citizens United for a Decent Internet (CUDI) joins with the American Decency Association (ADA) in calling for a boycott of Wal-Mart due to their brazen selling of soft-core pornography (which is just a gateway to hard-core pornography such as child porn and snuff films) in plain sight of minors. This pornography -- which includes the Sports Illustrated "Swimsuit" Edition and Cosmopolitan -- needs to be removed from the supposedly "family-friendly" store chain, and we feel that the threat of economic punishment in the form of a boycott will help Wal-Mart see the error of their ways. While the ADA is focusing on physical Wal-Mart stores, we at CUDI will be handling Wal-mart's online store, which not only lets creeps and pedophiles purchase a wider range of soft-core porn (and seemingly harmless magazines such as American Cheerleader which only fuel their perversion) in secrecy without having to face public disapproval, but also lets minors make purchases using a parent's credit card with no attempt at age verification.
Are you a member of the "Free Source Cult"?
Edit: I found the link that gives away that it is a parody. The link to Objective Ministries, the anti Landover Baptist site.
They got me with that one.
The rest of the sites that they link to are real though, and frightening enough.
