And yes, Westboro is a CULT, not a Baptist Church as it claims to be. ALL of its members are relatives and in-laws of its ultra-paranoid leader, Fred Phelps.

Did you know that Westboro was EXPELLED from the Southern Baptist Convention in 1991 on the grounds that:

1) its interpretations of the Bible are too extreme even for the fundamentalists who have controlled the SBC for the past 30 years — and are certainly no great fans of gay people themselves,

2) its all-Phelps family membership is too exclusive to conform to the SBC’s standards for a Baptist congregation.

But that’s not all: Fred Phelps has a history of alcohol and drug abuse, as well as physical abuse of his wife and children.

You can read the full, lurid story of the Phelpses by clicking onto the link below:

I wrote something up about the church as well and threw up a couple videos of them and a picture of a toddler holding a sign that says “you will eat you babies”
Ridiculous…….

“I calculate that there are about 26 million living veterans in our Country. I speculate there is not one of them who fought for our freedom-based Country that would not like the opportunity to spit in the eye of these obscure and insignificant radicals.

“Furthermore, I can’t imagine a court system that allows such an insulting challenge to our laws and way of life to proceed, or a lawyer who would stoop low enough to represent them.

“I also can’t imagine any one of these veterans or individuals who believe in the American way of life that would not stand up to these (you fill in the adjective you feel best fits these weirdoes) desecrations of our symbol of a freedom they are taking advantage of.

“The Westboro group should crawl back under the rock they came from. They are an embarrassment to our Country and any aspect of religious belief.”

“Their rights end where other people’s begin”

Sorry, but as classless as what the Phelpses do indeed is, other people don’t have the right not to be offended by what they say, including the funeral-goers–and the Muslims you rant about nonstop and celebrate the bombing of.

What would you do if CAIR were to bring a suit against you for some stupid crap you let fly about Muslims, and the ACLU stepped in to help (which it would)? You’d accept the support, is what.

You are a hypocritical windbag.

Funny how they seem to pop up like cockroaches whenever they feel the public isn’t looking.
