Westboro Baptist Church..America's Most Vile Religous Bigots?

I don't know if you people have heard of it, but I'm sure many of you have heard of the group of cretins who call themselves "God Hates Fags".

God Hates Fags Homepage

Upon further research, I find that they are more than your run of the mill religous homphobics.

For example, their thoughts on Hurricane Katrina.

"Katrina Prayer"

And Terrorism:

"Patriotic Ode"

Of course, there are their "memorials" to homosexuals.......

Diane Whipple
Mathew Shepherd

Thats all Im gonna link too. I feel a sickness in my gut.

These people to me are beneath garbage. Their hatred of people and glorification of violence and vile acts is beneath disgusting. They make alot of Nazis I know look respectable.

A wikipedia article gives good background to them, and their links to the Christian identity Movement, which is a racist group.

en.wikipedia.org...

They are also quite inbred, only marrying members of the church, who are almost all relatives of Phelps.

The members are sadistic and hateful.

Does anyone know anything else about this group, about their funding and ties with other groups?

Here Skadi, I made this about a year ago or so...thought you'd appreciate it

That churches sites are pure hate! Wow... I was really taken aback by that lol..
I don't understand how you can claim to be a man of god, then declare your god made dogs eat a lesbian. Does that not sound insane? No god of mine that is for sure..
This group sounds nearly militant in their ways.. how many members do they have?

Lol! That pretty good, val!

One thing that gave me hope is that reading up on thiese idiots, I discovered that even alot of Christian conservatives, like Jerry Falwell, think these people are nuts and are a cult. And the Baptist congregations of America pretty much denounce them and have nothing to do with them.

Even though Im not Christian, I know enough Christian doctrine to understand that by christian beliefs, God hates nobody. Only sin he hates.

This is also the same group of yo-yos that is traveling around the country carrying
on loud and vocal protests at the funerals of fallen Military personell and Vetrans.

funny they hate everybody but dont mess with Pagans or their rituals, wonder why?

Ahh... the American version of Islamic radicals. Just goes to show that no matter what religious doctrine you choose there is always some group of people that will use it to spread hate and violence. They all just better hope that there isn't any God. Because when they die...

No. Youd think they would. maybe because there arent alot of Pagans in kansas?

I find their obsession with homosexuals interesting. They even portray stick figure sodomy on some of their artwork. They are very obssesed with sodomy.

Usually that kind of stuff psychologists think suggests represessed homosexual tendancies.

Well, there you go...the Jee is right again! Judge not lest ye be judged, for with what judgement ye judge, you will be judged...

The Jee-man is ALWAYS right.

these people are embarrasements to the real christians. God doesn't hate anyone, even murderers. Yes, sex was designed for hetrosexual relationships, this is a fact, religious or not. But he never encouraged people to hate those who go against this rule. As long as they don't start creating children using artificial means, many Christians don't give a damn about gays.

i was jsut trying to find this guys website i heard of him from a friend of mine who jsut returned from the war in iraq. WHAT A GUY!! HUH? anyways way out there but i cannot remember the name of the soldier that started some of his (freds) publicity micheal somebody does anyone rememeber?? they have a website but i forgot and this computer will not access freds website can anyone tell me the name of that soldier??

There is a group of motorcycle riding veterans that rides around to various soldiers funerals now, and all they do is stand there in a huge group and form a path for the families. They stand there holding flags, and don't say a word, just block the families from having to see these idiots protesting at the funerals.

Those sad people just don't get it. I believe in god and I believe that if I live a good life in his name there will be eternal light. Does that mean I must live a perfect life without sin? Of course not. The story is Jesus died on the cross to absolve us of our sins (Of course, we need to work not to sin). My point is that we all commit sins and the god I have come to know sees a sin as a sin. Lying is just as bad as being gay, and it absolutely drives me crazy to see bigots like that play the game of, "...my sin isn't as bad as his." It's people like this that keep the walls of division up that prevent society from being able to band together for the common good.

I have read about "Pastor" Phelps, and have been familiar with his story for quite a few years now, and if there was ever justification for a Manslaughter Defense of "He Needed Killing" that man is it. Of course I think that defense is still on the books in some southern states and was written for people like him, Pastor Phelps - The Devil in Disguise.

www.youtube.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">This is a hilarious video where micheal moore confronts phelps with a busload of gays.

I really wish I hadn't pressed that link, what absolute idiots. Getting children to wear t-shirts praising 'God for killing soldiers' and 'thank God for IED attacks' you have to be seriously joking me?!

They may disagree with the war but thanking God for the loss of our soldiers is absolutely disgraceful.

These kind of people are one of the big reasons Christians have such a rotten reputation. I mean, when was the last time a reasonable, rational Christian made major news?

I agree here. These people are sick, and thus, they get the attention.

I am pleased by Zaphods info of the motorcycle riding vets helping to protect the families from these evil, sick, retarded losers.

Fred Phelps, the pastor of that church is truly disgusting. Here in Roanoke Va. A few years ago a deranged man (named Gay) walked into a gay bar and started shooting. One was killed and several were wounded to one degree or the other. Well this character who calls himself a reverend wanted to come and protest at the funeral of man who was killed. Well these types are such cowards. Instead of having the courage of his convictions, he wanted the local police to protect him so he could spew his bile. Well they refused so he didn't come. These were the same people who showed up at Mathew Shepard's funeral in Montana with their God hates fags placards, and protest at the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq.

I would love to see someone dressed as Jesus with a placard that reads "God hates bigots like Fred Phelps" protesting one of his protests.

I am writing a story that includes bisexual drunkard of a Preacher, deliberately named Fred Phelps and a little dig.

Jimmy Swaggert used to preach constantly about the evils of porn only for it to come out he was a porn addict. I forget the guys name (Bill Bennet?) but he was in the Reagan administration and all he talked about was high moral values only for it to come out he had a gambling addiction. It would not surprise me a bit if pictures of Fred Phelps were to surface of him wearing a dress

That would even make a kewl avatar
