Christwire is a satirical website that published blog-style articles intended to ridicule excesses of American Christian conservatives.
Recurring topics include homosexuality, atheism, Hollywood, and other purported threats to American culture.

According to co-founder Kirwin Watson, their target is not Christians but "those who do not question what they hear on the news".
