Westboro Baptist Church

[TheCrazyMango]

Ok, if you havent heard about this, this should piss you off.
heres a decent video

These people make me want to avoid telling people in Christian. I personally dislike these people greatly
Since this will inevitably end in flaming, lets see how long we can go without it.

And so you can get the taste of ignorance and stupidity out of your mouth,

So disgusted I can't even finish it.  I heard about picketing a lot like this about two weeks ago in gov't class as it obviously still goes on.  Such ignorant ****s.

Why would anyone flame? They're just a bunch of nutjobs. Only thing that's really unusual about them is that they're so vocal and offensive. But it's certainly not controversial that they're despicable. They picketed my brother's college once.

Those folks are IMO just plain stupid. Nothing wrong with that since it isn't forbidden to be stupid. *shrugs*

I wasn't able to watch more than 5 minutes or I would have gotten a serious brain cancer, but why are they only hating male homosexuals? - From their reasoning it should be just as bad to be a female homosexual.
Well I can understand that they don't go after lesbians, 'cause they are hawt!

And that reporter who made those vids deserves a +Karma! If i would have to make a documentation of that, I'd try to kill myself because I'd be too ashamed that folks of the same race as I am can act this much against any logic! That reporter must be a really tough guy!

I could only make it about a minute and a half into the video. Words can't adequately express my seething anger about that family and their beliefs. The fact that they call themselves "Christians" makes their offense even more heinous, because they have completely distorted the Word of God to mean whatever it is that they feel it needs to mean to get off on some sort of power trip.

So... thanks for posting this? ???

I stopped at the part when they were in the card saying that they were going to a funeral.

Was recently informed of this quote:
“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
-Gandhi

I'm reminded of the Baptist funeral I went to for my aunt. Most of the time spent was the preacher going on about how important it was to accept Christian dogma to avoid Hell. What does that have to do with her life? Her father apologized to my Jewish family. Granted, this is a whole 'nother class of crazy, but it's not like it wasn't preceded by some pretty messed up stuff.

Look on the bright side - people know how to counter these guys (

That being said, I'm pretty sure God wouldn't really approve of what the WBC is doing. 

[Hyroen]

Some say you need Evil in the world to understand Good. I'm glad I watched this.

I now have a deeper appreciation of Intelligence and Respect.

not approve?! if God didn't exist, after hypothetically seeing this he would probably pop into existence and blow them to perdition! i agree with 970924. these people make me strongly want to deny my beliefs. shameful opinionated bigotry is really the most accurate way of describing them. this is not flaming this is utter truth. i died inside watching that.

that is very true. it's just a shame the evil had to be this intensive.

Just in case anybody had any doubts as to the validity of these people's claim that they are Christians...

Direct quote from that crazy lady who heads up that operation:

"Hun, you don't publish a message without it being seen, and that necessarily includes the unclean media mess."

Direct quote from Jesus:

"And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward."

Jesus wins.
