TimC Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Group Plans To Picket Va. Tech Funerals Anti-Gay Religious Group Known For Protesting At Services For U.S. Soldiers Killed In Iraq April 18, 2007 (CBS) By CBSNews.com's David Miller. The families of those killed in the Virginia Tech massacre may not be able to grieve in peace at the funerals of those they lost. An anti-gay religious group known for protesting at the funerals of American soldiers killed in Iraq is planning on appearing at services for those killed on Monday as well. The Topeka, Kan.-based Westboro Baptist Church (WBC), which is not affiliated with any national Baptist organization, announced plans to protest at victims’ funerals only hours after 32 people were killed in the worst mass shooting in U.S. history. They also may protest at other events on the Virginia Tech campus. The organization, founded and led by Fred Phelps, believes the United States has condemned itself to destruction by accepting homosexuality and other “sins of the flesh.” Phelps’ daughter, Shirley Phelps-Roper, said the Virginia Tech teachers and students who died on Monday brought their fate upon themselves by not being true Christians. ... http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/04/18/...in2699800.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameltosis Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 “The evidence is they were not Christian. God does not do that to his servants,” Phelps-Roper said. “You don’t need to look any further for evidence those people are in hell.” Ummm....Suffering succotash!!

Bill Swerski Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) Just what Jesus would want them to do. I wasn't talking about what Jesus would want. I say tax them. These groups should not get tax breaks when they behave this way. Nah, they could refuse to pay and fight it in court for years. A good old-fashioned ass-kicking would work much better.

Brewer Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I wish that somebody would kick the crap out of these pseudo-Christian idiots. One of those funerals will be about 15 minutes from my house. If those psycho Megan Foxbags show up, I think that some people might just do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front Row Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Don't backpedal after your attempt to dumb this down to a simplistic scapegoat of blaming parenting which you are directly trying to a political philosophy. A stable family environment is key for healthy human development but there is for a multitude of reasons for the breakdown of that, also. Some people are just plain sick in the head, despite their upbringing. Damn BW ; when your right your right. Guilty as charged When I do the math I still get family dysfunction as a large part of the problem . That being said , You may have a valid point; Some people may just be plain evil regardless of their upbringing. Kids are always an emotional topic for me.

They have no skeletons in their closet and are perfect in every way. dont lump them in with regular christians, catholics, etc.. these are extremests. you might as well compare them to the radical muslim terrorists due to the fact that they take everything so literally and try to spin it their way. the only difference is that they fight with words, trying to hurt the mind of people that disagree with them rather than physically. i know this is a bit "out there", but i really wish that Hell's Angels or some group show up to fend off these sick SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS !!!s. i know they do this stuff at military funerals and such. if not that sort of reach, a group like this would be good as well. http://www.patriotguard.org/ http://www.arktimes.com/blogs/arkansasblog...test_in_be.aspx Edited April 20, 2007 by jjpro11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of me wonders if they even believe half the crap they spew. Interestingly, the entire congregation of over 100 is one family. Wanna bet some of the relationships within said family would be questionable at best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if they showed up at a funeral of somebody I loved somebody would end up in the hospital & I would end up in jail. There's no damn way I could just stand there and let them do that.
