I just searched "Landover" in Snopes.com, and it showed up in a discussion of another site as the "well known Landover spoof". Since you searched  the whole name, it wouldn't have been found.

I apologize for my mistaken belief that the "Landover Baptist Church" is a
reality.  The truth be told, it is a parody of fundamental Chrisianity.

Although Snopes has absolutely nothing related to "Landover Baptist
Church", Wikipedia does . . .

"The Landover Baptist Church is a fictional Baptist church based in the
fictional town of Freehold, Iowa. The Landover Baptist web site and its
associated Landoverbaptist.net Forum are a parody of fundamentalist
Christianity and the Religious Right in the United States."

In addition to its website, the fictional "Landover Baptist Church" also
consists of . . .

Initially I was convinced that "Landover Baptist Church" was some
extremely radical right-wing political faction doing business as a
fundamentalist Christian church.

I was wrong.
