Westboro Baptist Church Responds To Congress
Westboro Baptist Church isn’t too happy with Congress, and responded in typical fashion to a bill that would limit their activities: by insulting homosexuals on Twitter and saying their plans wouldn’t change.
Congress passed the Honoring America’s Veterans and Caring for Camp Lejeune Families Act of 2012 Thursday, which prevents demonstrators from picketing military funerals two hours before or after a service. It also requires demonstrators to remain at least 300 feet away from grieving family members. President Obama is expected to sign the bill on Monday.
The Honoring America’s Veterans act was a response to a 2011 Supreme Court ruling in favor of protecting Westboro Baptist’s First Amendment rights. Albert Snyder, the father of deceased Marine Matthew Snyder, filed a lawsuit against Westboro Baptist for causing him emotional pain at his son’s funeral, but the Supreme Court ruled that Snyder’s grief had to yield to the group’s right to free speech in an 8-1 decision.
The lone dissenter, Justice Samuel Alito, said Snyder only wanted to “bury his son in peace,” and that the protestors “brutally attacked” Matthew Snyder with their signs of “Thank God for dead soldiers” and “God Hates the USA/Thank God for 9/11.”
Despite the new act, Westboro Baptist is planning to continue its protests. A spokesman for the church, Steven Drain, told CNN that the new restrictions “were really not going to change [their] plans at all.” Drain also said that the group is going to continue to protest, but will also “continue to obey all laws.”
Margie Phelps, one of the church’s most outspoken members, had some choice words for Congress after the bill was passed. She tweeted,
Member Rebekah Phelps-Roper tweeted,
What do you think of Westboro Baptist Church’s decision to continue protesting military funerals?

God will judge them by their actions and inactions.. KARMA IS A BITCH BAPTISTS.
Aug 5, 2012
Still amazed they've never been firebombed.
Aug 5, 2012
These people. have a sickness of the soul. May God have mercy on their souls.
Aug 5, 2012
Napalm them
Aug 5, 2012
These people should be ashamed of themselves. I believe they are going too far with their antics and really should not call themselves Christians. You have to being way down the road of wrong when you are being condemned by the KKK. What the hell?
Aug 5, 2012
I cant believe they are allowed to stand behind god and say these things…our military fight for these ignorant ass people to be able to protest….i hope they all burn in hell! they are all scum!
Aug 5, 2012
What ever happened to hate the sin love the sinner, Judge not lest yes be judged? As a born again Christian I am ashamed.
Aug 5, 2012
Trollers
Aug 5, 2012
This is…. I'm speechless…. if it wasn't for the military you idiots wouldn't be standing there with your free damn speech! Their the ones defending this country that YOU all live in…you all need to deport yourselves since America isn't for you!
Aug 5, 2012
They claim to be Christians but they are harassing families who have lost a loved one. If not for the soldiers these people would not the right to be jerks.
Aug 5, 2012
I am all for free speech but these people make me sick.My daughter is a soldier ad well as many other family members and I would be devastated if something happened to one them and then to have that pain compounded by these biggots would just be too much. The need to show respect for the soldiers who are giving their lives for "their" freedoms.
Aug 5, 2012
I think if they're so unhappy here they should leave the USA. How would they feel if someone picketed their loved ones funeral? Hard to imagine that anyone would have them as an employee

HATE THE SIN, LOVE THE SINNER…….THAT WOULD BE FINE IF YOU COULD FIGURE OUT WHICH IS WHICH…….BUT YOU CAN'T. THESE ARE NASTY PEOPLE WHO NEED A CULT TO JOIN SO THEY HAVE WHAT THEY CONSIDER FAMILY. I PERSONALLY AM SURPRISED THAT SOMEONE HASN'T RETALIATED YET. I'LL BET WHEN THAT HAPPENS, WE WILL HEAR LESS AND LESS FROM THEM. THEY ARE SICK INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO WITH THEIR TIME THAN TO SPREAD HATE. THEY SHOULD BE ARRESTED FOR INCITING A RIOT……AND THEN THAT WOULD BE TOO GOOD FOR THEM.

NOT ONLY THAT, BUT EVERYTHING THEY DO IS TAX FREE BECAUSE THEY ARE CONSIDERED A CHURCH…..THEY ARE JUST A CULT OF LOUD-MOUTHED __________ INSERT YOUR OWN WORD.
Aug 5, 2012
I think hate is evil.
Aug 5, 2012
What is up with so many "religious" people in this country preaching hatred and intolerance? Not what I learned in Sunday School and church. And adding name calling to boot, such immature and hateful behavior.
Aug 5, 2012
They're a cult plain and simple.
Aug 5, 2012
If they didn't get so much attention and the media would ignore them…they would not be so quick to act out! Why do we waste time even talking about these morons!
Aug 5, 2012
Its one thing to preserve the right to protest or freedom of speech. But is the freedom to display words of hate also preserved? I don't think so. Congress should pass a law preventing this.THen all you have are a bunch of misdirected assholes standing around. We will block you too.
Aug 5, 2012
Oh I'm not afraid to confront these idiots.Just give me the chance…1 time.
Aug 5, 2012
They will have vip seating in hell…..God hates hate and they cause it
Aug 5, 2012
I agree. Its just a waste of time. Who knows what they are thinking. By the way, house is looking good.
Aug 5, 2012
They will all go to "HELL" for having signs that want more soldiers killed! What kind of people are they?
Aug 5, 2012
These people are no more religious than I'm the man in the moon. Their actions are speaking louder than words and I agree with another comment listed here. Karma indeed can be a bitch.
Aug 5, 2012
Thanks Jerry!
Aug 5, 2012
I feel sorry for the Baptists who dont do anything wrong. Cause your getting screwed by a bunch of bigots. I am ashamed to live in a country where we dont just kick the shit out of these asses. Better yet, if You dont like gays, our military, our people, OUR country Get the fuck out!!!
Aug 5, 2012
God's judgement will be worse!
Aug 5, 2012
WOW! Such "GODLY" people they are (sarcasm) they may perhaps want to actually pull out a BIBLE if it does not burn their hands that is…..
Aug 5, 2012
Everyone who dosnt agree with these cretins shoudl just refuse to serve them as they have that right to refuse service. How long woudl they last with no food, fuel, water, electricity, gas, medical aid, schooling, mechanics, plumbers etc. we shoudlnt need a law just for right minded peopel to peacefully ingnore theses people. if one is behind you in a car, drive slow, don't let them out on turns, block their prgoress, but peacably. But if all you shop keepers didn't serve them and shops that did got boycotted, they woudlnt last loing, and it is legal and needs no las jsut silence.
Send them to Coventry! Ignore them! dotn serve them!
Aug 5, 2012
The President might sign the bill but will he or Eric Holder allows the States and local officials to enforce it? Why isn't the Westboro Baptist church classified as a hate group and on the Terrorist Watch list I ask you?
Aug 5, 2012
Hey they practice what they preach ugliness hate and violence describes the Westboro members to a T they are hateful ugly! violent group of people, they have several insecurities I mean if you looked liked any of these scroungy homely looking Westboro creatures you'd be pissed off to!
Aug 5, 2012
I personally think instead of focosing on Mr. Cathy and Chick Fil-A everybody should focus on this Hate Group and revoke their church exemption if that hasn't been done yet.
Aug 5, 2012
They can not be Christians as they profess to be. They are NOT GOD! It's not up to them to judge anyone. I can't believe they think what they're doing is right-evidentally they're not reading the Bible. In the Bible, they had wars-these people need to be stopped-we live near a small town, Hagerstown, MD, but they were here & I know a co-worker was on the other side of the street, bikers were going up & down the streets to keep them on the other side & they didn't try to cross the line. This "cult" & that's what it is, needs to be dissolved. I was raised Baptist, yes, they witness, but they don't protest & do the things that Westboro does.
Aug 5, 2012
One word to describe them: Ignorant!
Aug 5, 2012
I think instead of focusing on Chick Fil-A everybody in this country should focus on shutting down this hate group and making sure their church exemption has been revoked if it hasn't been yet.
Aug 5, 2012
examples of in-breeding? Lol I think it fits Linda.
Aug 5, 2012
What God do they serve? Our God commanded the army of Israel! He also states we are to love one another as he loves us – so they aren't worshiping Jehovah Lord of all! I'd hate to be in their shoes! They are sick!
Aug 5, 2012
As a baptist my self I can not beleive that they are doing such things. I am ashamed to have them even associated with my faith, God shall bring down his judgement on these people that claim to be baptist in do time and they will all suffer ten fold. JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGE?
Aug 5, 2012
Roe M. Toahty Same here!
Aug 5, 2012
I know a lot of wonderful Baptist people, including Rev. Billy Graham and I doubt these people are a part of the main Baptist denomination. They are some of the most loving, caring people. I am Methodist, but true Christians don't take this kind of attitude. They are deceiving themselves, because hate is of the devil. God is Love. As some of you all have said, if it were not for our military fighting for our freedom, they couldn't make these kinds of statements.They would have ones head in the mid-east for this kind of talk and demonstration. Very sad! Don't use our dear Lords name for this cause because it is not God. One who would give His for the salvation of mankind.
Aug 5, 2012
Change their name to Westburro it's what they are a bunch of small Donkeys, or what they curl up with at night.
Aug 5, 2012
You will know them by their fruit. Matthew 7:15
Aug 5, 2012
As much as I personally don't want to, I think God expects those of us who truly are Christian to love them into oblivion! For every act of evil from them we should return it with words of love. Romans 12:17 instructs us to "Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable." (NLT) Scripture warns us of these people in 1 John 4:1 — "Dear friends, do not believe everyone who claims to speak by the Spirit. You must test them to see if the spirit they have comes from God. For there are many false prophets in the world." We must turn to God to defeat these evil entities. Without His power we can do nothing but with Him we can defeat the evil!
Aug 5, 2012
if their god hates america so much then move the hell out. no body wants you here spreading your insane bigotry. these men and women in the armed forces are out there fighting for our freedoms and all that cult of westboro is doing is causing disgust and disgrace in our country. those people need to grow up and get a life or just jump off a cliff, anything besides cisgracing our country and Gods name. they should be struck down!
Aug 5, 2012
If these nuts think the USA is doomed why don't they go somewhere else to live….its not like anybody would miss them. As for gays "God don't make junk". Last time I read the bible it was gods job to pass judgement not us.
Aug 5, 2012
These psycho paths need to be put on meds… Where do they get off clamin that God hates his childeren? How can anyone think that spreading hate is what God would want? I have read on their twitter page that they Chick-Fil-A is being put in the same classifacation as these morons… There is way way that Chick-Fil-A could or would ever agree with these "things". They are not acting on God's behalf. They are allowing themselves to be run and spread Evil… THE WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH IS PURE EVIL!

To the church and to the people who make up this church. If it were not for the military of this great country of mine and those here who can call them theirs as well be for ever proud of them they give their lives and serve this country of ours when they are called to duty. If it were not for our military you would not be standing behind your signs and saying all those nasty things. I'm proud of my family and all those who have served not like you people claiming to be doing GOD work or speaking for some one YOU don't even know. You judge our military you judge others for who they love or how they act you are no better you are trash, who the HELL do you think you are GOD I don't think so for God would not do what you are doing. When war breaks you are the first to hide you don't want any part of it yet you live free on the blood of those who fought and died for you. You sons of bitches our military men and women come from all walks of life and are made up of people from ALL Nations and it does not matter to them where they go or what they have to do for our country they are proud. Your church and your members should be ashamed of your self for doing what you are doing to our MILITARY and Their family member who die for this great country of ours not yours. Their is ONLY One person who can JUDGE and it is NOT YOU nor YOUR CHURCH. You will not be showed Mercy for you and your pastor and all the elder's of that church will be JUDGED nor forgiveness you are horrible people.
Aug 5, 2012
These inbred hate-mongers are beyond belief. Sure, they have a right to free speech, but our country has outlawed hate speech. What would you call that? Sick…
Aug 5, 2012
Please tell me this is photoshopped. It is scary that people think this way!

they sure arent true christians nor care for our country or military. this part i do know.

My question is this… why are there not a lot of people in jail for beating the s#%*t out of Westboro Baptist church protesters?
Aug 5, 2012
I can't believe people like her can even call themselves Americans. If it wasn't for our Military men and women she wouldn't even have the right to hold up that piece of crap sign that she's so proud of. It's a sad day when we have soldiers fighting for the rights of people like her who have not a shred of common decency for the families who have lost a loved one so these idiots can protest at their funerals under the guise of free speech. Well here is my speech for free. I lost my son in april he was a fine husband, father and soldier. For them to call themselves christians is a joke. They hate and try to use christianity to defend what they are doing by protesting at funerals of families who have sacrificed for this nation. Our sons and daughters stepped up when theirs didn't so what does that say about them.
Aug 5, 2012
wtf is wrong with these people! no fricken morals or anything. I am an American Soldier! lets see these peoples asses in the line of fire with there picketing with a bunch of us Soldiers and Marines and see how long that lasts! they ain't the ones going over there to keep the violence off our shores. so they can bugger off in a tiny hole. I'm not getting into the religious battle cause we all have a higher calling. so regardless what the heck you believe in you cross the line when you westboro assholes talk shit(excuse my language)about my battle buddies. I have lost alot of battle buddies and it sucks. and going to their funeral is even worse. so you westboro assholes want to come here and say that crap to our faces go right ahead. just a warning..those picket stix you hold will be shoved up your keisters sideways.
Aug 5, 2012
If this was happening in another country these people would already have had a car bomb driven into their church….. Fuck em all..
Aug 5, 2012
I've said it before, if these people hate America, get the hell out. Hypocrites.
Aug 5, 2012
You all are right, these people are letting themselves be fooled by the Devil, who is damning them to hell, laughing all the time.
Aug 5, 2012
Please don't make the mistake of thinking all Baptists are like these people. Jesus had His most severe words for those who considered themselves religiously better than others. The apostle Paul said something I think is relevant to folks like these: "The Name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you." (Rom. 2:24). Most Christians are not like this. This "church" is why Ghandi said, "I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
Aug 5, 2012
just as child molesters are outed as they join the prison population, so too should any one of these who finds him/herself on the wrong side of the bars. Me thinks the military burying their dead with honor and respect is nearly as important in the joint as it is on main street USA.
Aug 5, 2012
These people are horrible, and have no respect for anyone!
Aug 5, 2012
I saw this and almost grew fangs, fur, and a muzzle. These morons have NO Biblical message to spread. Their goal is to cause pain and discontent. It's not a very Godly church and it should be disbanded and the building condemned!
Aug 5, 2012
the military industrial complex is out of control. we were warned against this by general eisenhower himself. military personnel in opposition to the viet nam war were vocal and present. the soliders today act like they do not have a clue or a response to the over-extended military presence around the world. Is it because they have no conscious or are they protecting their jobs by following orders. Nobody is treatening america.
Aug 5, 2012
I don't want to live on this planet anymore!!!
Aug 5, 2012
There not fighting for our freedom. These war are corporate & not like other wars of the past. There over there fighting to gain control of minerals and force other religious views on people and on there land. Wars these day mean big profits for the corporate gov machine. They last way too long and look who there fighting against. Countries the size of some of the biggest states or smaller. It all a sham man.
Aug 5, 2012
Time to pick up the baseball bats and go on a road trip. I am about f*cking sick of these people. That soldier DIED to defend the freedom of speech you are using to abuse his grieving family with you ignorant, backwoods twat waffle!
Aug 5, 2012
I live on the West Coast, but I'd be tempted to go to Kansas to picket Fred Phelps funeral when ever his Master Satan calls him back to Hell.
Aug 5, 2012
Absolutely rediculous these ppl need to be used as terroist target practice
Aug 5, 2012
these people go against the very thing that Jesus Christ and being a true Christian is supposed to represent. What would Jesus do? I'm not sure, but what he wouldn't do is walk around with signs that are filled with such hatred like these people do. I really hope non-Christians understands that these people are NOT Christian Baptists…they are a group of really bitter, sad, pathetic people who obviously need to be pitied.
Aug 5, 2012
i agree with that but the point is that goup is wrong. that is my point on this. those ppl are a complete disgrace of humanity. the battles our country sends them to fight are bullshit tho. all of it makes me sick but i realk
Aug 5, 2012
really* want to take that cult down lol
Aug 5, 2012
Well, considering the signs they post claim that God hates America, they really shouldn't live here because that would mean that God hates them. So, in essence, they are turning their words around on themselves.

Brainwashed cult
Aug 5, 2012
I am U.S. soldier myself, and to see signs of unjust bigotry that badgers on fallen servicemembers who by their own choice AND accord to fight for freedom, protects these religious nutcases of the freedoms they take for granted is ultimately unruly. Its one thing to give banter and hate on minorities alone, but to include our nation's finest warriors who are still alive and those who are no longer with us among the living? Perhaps we should put these individuals in a cave surrounded by insurgents withholding them at gunpoint and see how big their mouths and egos are. They won't be so confident once they see and experience firsthand of what every servicemember goes through in a situation like the one mentioned above.
Aug 5, 2012
karma is all I have to say…that church is not reading the right book..
Aug 5, 2012
I have seen groups like this in action, where they insult you to your face just because you aren't on their side, and they scream in your face about how you will burn in hell. I just smile, and quote Ziggy Marley–'Love is my religion", and you can see their eyeballs spinning around in their sockets. They know NOTHING of love. And as you sow, shall you reap.
Aug 5, 2012
I think the whole lot of them needs heavy psychiatric medication. They are OBVIOUSLY psychotic and having delusional fantasies.
Aug 5, 2012
If you really pay attention to them, (which I don't recommend unless you have a really strong stomach), a pattern of Irony SHINES thru everything they do, and their stupidity is left standing in the spotlight. I know its God's way of MOCKING them for their actions. Read about them on Wiki- here's my favorite part.
"On October 5, 2011, Fred Phelps' daughter, Margie, announced via her Twitter account that the church would be picketing Apple Inc. founder Steve Jobs' funeral.[49][50] CBS News and The Washington Post noted the irony in the fact that Margie used an iPhone to create the tweet".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church
I can't wish anything bad on them because that's what they want me to do, and it would make me no better than them… but people that are this evil can't last forever- a church that is based on hatred, negativity, slander, a church that praises evil acts, terrorism, war… a church that preaches about morons and fags and idiots- obviously isn't a church at all, and it will be destroyed within itself like all cults eventually are. Hatred destroys- so logically, a "church" based on hatred will eventually destroy itself. Bringing God into it will speed up that process a little, I'm sure.
IGNORE THEM- that is the hardest thing to do, but it's the only way we can make sure they know that their hateful message isn't being heard.
Galatians 6:7- Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
U know that's not going to be pretty.
Aug 5, 2012
I'm sorry, but I am baptist. They are nowhere NEAR being ANY denomination of christianity! No christian would ever protest hate, especially at military funerals. I served a short time in the military, and come from a military family. I know what's good and right, and what wrong and evil. They are wrong and evil, plain and simple. How DARE they stand there and insult those who do nothing more than protect the freedoms they use and call themselves christians. Every REAL christian I know would thank those that serve and their families. What that CULT does angers me to my very core, but I know that they WILL be judged in the end and they will NOT pass that gate and enter heaven. My words for Margie Phelps:"You don't speak for me!"
Aug 5, 2012
They should be thankful that they are no where near me and mine! If something ever happened to one of my soliders and they showed up I can guarantee you that 'someone' would be going to jail! These people are FILTH! And as much as I 'want' to be christian like toward them I can't! The thought of people like them exisiting makes me ill, they are putrid souls and I will dance happily the day someone knocks them on theri a**!
Aug 5, 2012

All they want is to get attention by stirring up shit. What they all really need is a good old fashion ass stomping as an attitude 'adjustment'. That would make headlines in all the newspapers…
Aug 5, 2012
you double talker you, you don't know the first thing about or men and women who serve this Country or God! On my page you posted to go back where we came from because we forgave someone that hurt dogs is the past! Yet you cannot forgive Micheal who are you to talk… Your not his judge and someday you too will be judged!!! Don't double talk!!!! On my page you also said my next orders will be in Iran, been there done that and I will do it over and over again if my Country need be!!!! That's what wrong about this World that's why your words mean nothing!!!!!!!!! you double talker you!! Stand down no one wants to hear from you, who spends his life online George Vazquez your an Idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These idiots can protest away if they wish, pretend that all is well and God is approving their sick behavior. When each and every one of them keels over and they stand before Him, they will be in for a rude awakening. They will be sent straight down because they mocked Him. I'm sure He isn't taking this too kindly. He is ever powerful and is a loving and just God, but when you mock Him that is not a very smart thing to do. Old Fart Phelps and his flunkies will see that first hand.
Aug 5, 2012
These Westboro Babtist a-holes are just mean spirited, ignorant, fearful and hate filled idiots. How cruel of them to do what they do to innocent grieving families. I woudn't surprised if all thier negativity makes them ill. Such low vibrational functioning people.
Aug 5, 2012
I am so glad that Congress has passed the bill. I live in Topeka Kansas, the cult pickets every single day here. We are active in the town to STAND UP TO THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR with a group of concerned citizens called TAKE BACK TOPEKA. If you get a chance visit our facebook page and see what we deal with on a daily basis, at the churches, schools, funerals, street corners, and any where they think they need to be. They don't need a reason just a ride to get there. PLEASE AMERICAN STAND UP IN YOUR CITIES AND SHARE OUR PAGE WITH OTHERS. Education in the Key!
Aug 5, 2012
Pamela if I were you I would re-read I stand for our men and women who SERVED like my self. I no I will never ever forgive MICHEAL VICK for what he did, I really don't care what time he served he did not pay the price as the dogs did they are dead. You can love who you want you could say what you want as well I do not support people who think the way. I see its all about the god card so use it when you need it Its that what this is all about. If you belong to this Church then so be it again that is your second mistake don't blame me for YOUR mistakes. When you have children and some one does them harm call Vick he will help you then look at the face of an abuser can you tell no they come in many forms. I spend my time helping those who don't HAVE a voice those who are hurt and abused killed and left behind (remember that) They are the ONES I fight for not people who claim to be CHRISTIANS they are the first to to double talk. As for me if I'm Judged their can only be 1 person to do that its its not going to be you or this CHURCH they trutly will be. The next time please call me Mr. Idiot for your words carry nothing to hurt me. I will be ready for that day and I will bring with me all those that suffered all those that were hurt and all those who can not speak and I would dare you to look them in their eye's and say it's ok. By the way did I say something to offend you or is it the TRUTH that brother's you.

Gives Christians and baptists a bad name
Aug 5, 2012
These people give a bad name to real Christians and real churches out there! No wonder some people hate us! Didn't their mothers ever teach them that if they didn't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all? Common sense should trump free speech, folks – use your hearts, not your over developed diarrhea of the mouth!
Aug 5, 2012
Please, I am a proud Baptist and I don't know any Baptists or Christians that behave like this cult. I don't think they should be allowed to call themselves Baptist.
Aug 5, 2012
If this helps you loose faith then the devil won theirs a way to do things and a way not too this certainlly isn't the way to get a message across.
Aug 5, 2012
people just get misled by evil simply put.
Aug 5, 2012
any kind of hate is not jesus teachings nor any kind of violence.
Aug 5, 2012
Id hate to say it but maybe most of the population is just damaged goods to the point of no help. Have we been in Satan's corrupted playground for so long we are now conditioned for the time to come? When 90 percent of the world is either blind, or evil and the darkness prevails then the shit will hit the fan becuase we failed are fucking test.

I could wake up dead and that would be fine with me.

Julie, I posted a link on my mom's wall last week. WBC tried to pickett one of our gates. A group of mostly spouses got together and blocked them. It was really cool.
Aug 5, 2012
everything will fall apart collectively from each individuals failure and mislead ways once the scales go off balance.So enjoy being lazy and taking the easy way and when you have to get off your ass I hope its not rough on you.
Aug 5, 2012
I'm not sure they should be allowed to call themselves Christians!
Aug 5, 2012
I wish I could have been there to see that!! I know I would have been right in the front spouting off just as many biblical verses as they did, each one just a pointed as theirs!
Aug 5, 2012
I am a Christian and a Baptist and these people make me sick! The message they preach is not the message that God has in His Word. They will answer to God for their mockery of Him and His Word. Let it be known that this is a shame and a stench in the nostrils of God and they are not acting on His behalf. True believers of God do not behave this way and no matter of free speech condones this atrocity!

And a decidedly rotten fruit it is, too!

Gandhi was right. And I recall Jesus making this point in the parable about the Philistine (?) and the tax collector – the former was thanking God he wasn't like the tax collector, while the latter only beat his breast and asked God's mercy on him, a sinner.

I say lock and load, its time to exterminate these idots.
we need to remove these scumbags from the face of the earth.
Aug 5, 2012
I can'tthink of a word low enough to describe them. How can individuals be so full of hate and phony self-righteousness? Guess God will decide what to do with them. Good thing its not me deciding!
Aug 5, 2012
Westboro Baptist Church is NOT representative of the Christian church; is not Christian and is not a church. It is made up of about five weirdoes who claim to be a church. I do not know one church that has tied into or agrees with them. Come on, Dawn, you know that.
Aug 5, 2012
Finally, all kinds of political views are in a church. It's just like UCHS. Meanwhile, the church continues to have a great missions program, feeds the hungry and offers people hope. When you say "church" just remember there are many different animals in the bunch…over 300 denominations. As you know I pastor a church. You know me. You know my political views. We have over 100 on a Sunday; not five. We love veterans. Also, we do not take political stands or support a candidate. We are like the church you grew up in. I guess I am as upset about this stuff as we both were when people criticized us as teachers by looking at a few bad apples and thinking we were all like that. Am I making sense?
Aug 5, 2012
I don't understand this "god" they worship. My God teaches love, respect, the Golden Rule, not hatred and bias. Does "Judge not, lest Yes be judged" sound familiar? I support our military and their families and pray for their safety each day.
Aug 5, 2012
Are the phelps the main members of Westboro Baptist? That proves alot. and if God hates America and Americans y stay here? go over seas away from us where u belong. and if god laughs when a plane crashes. and thank god for 9/11.. looks like to me they are praising the devil and not god.
Aug 5, 2012
the Westboro Baptist Church should be tried for treason and then all their members put to death.
Aug 5, 2012
I understand free speech. I don't understand the lack of consideration for the families of those who die in service to America. My son did two tours in Iraq. I thank God that He brought my son home safe. I don't believe that this is ANY example of God's love. They spread hate and anger, which is not of God. They DO NOT represent the loving God I know or His son Jesus. Those of you that might not have a personal relationship with Christ….please don't judge all Christians by these few, thoughtless, self serving people. Vengence is mine says the Lord. I will pray for them, becasue they need to see what God's love is all about.

I have seen several people mentioning bombing and such, hate to tell you it already happened back in '95 or at least that was the info I found.
weather true or not anyones guess as I found it on their own webpage.
Aug 6, 2012
wow, I've had a seriously messed up weekend, had to deal with a lot of this kind of thinking from other people and had to sit there quietly so as not to be shot. I'm just not sure how much more of this I can stand. Some real sick people out there.
Aug 6, 2012
My dear Angel, this just goes to show that there is hate in all different religious sects. We have been warned about FALSE PROFETS in the Bible but many are too blind to see the truth. Too many are filled with hate and no respect for others. So again, they are blind and only want to inflect pain so that they can fool themselves into thinking that they don’t hurt inside. Lies and hate… So many quote unquote religious people live for this outlook on life. All we can do is pray that someday the blind will see and repent of their actions. Love & Prayers are the answer to fight hate and evil. Love & Prayers to you and all the family.
Aug 6, 2012
Truth is I take offense to people that say to me go back to where you came from and next orders you are going to Iran!!!!! Really!!! You are right about that Church they should have the respect for the families and the men and women who have fallen. But again God will take care of them. I don't comment negative online this was the first, for me I don't like to be ugly but when you made that comment to me, wow I was pissed we loved the EAGLES long before Micheal and I had a hard time forgiving him at first too, but I preyed about it over and over, till one day I opened my bible and God said who are you not to forgive your brother, Do Not Judge or you will be Judged… Wake up call for me!!!! What he did was wrong really really wrong, but if you say you are a Christian then let God take care of it!!! I don't want to be your enemy but don't comment on my page without knowing the persons true feelings first. And thank you for taking care of those without a voice, your payment will be great in Heaven…..Love they neighbor…..Prey for the lost one's, that they too may know Gods love….. And Forgive me…
Aug 6, 2012
So happy our government has acted on these people. They lack character and judgement and should not be considered AMERICAN. It's hard to believe that they have been protected up to now. It's time they protect our soldiers and their families in the time of thier grieving.
Aug 6, 2012
It's sad to see such ungrateful people with such a sick interpretation of the sacrafices made by our service members to help protect their freedoms! How quickly people forget how many extremest are out there that want to destroy our way of life.
Aug 7, 2012
These people are a bunch of ignorant uneducated haters! What they fail to realize is the reason they stand on the streets and preach their bullshit is because the life of an American soldier was lost defending their freedoms! I hope every one of these fucking bigots rots in HELL!

To Pamela Leihuanani: Just to let you know I was not on your page and the post that I made was on Micheal Vick's sport page. What I meant to posted was to go back to Hawaii you move closer to the team. This church does not stand for god's work what so ever they will be judged for the wrong they are doing and the lack of respect for OUR military I'm and always will be proud of them no matter who they are that will never change. I'm who I'm and I will continue to do what I do.Be the voice of those who are abused. DONE
Aug 7, 2012
I know I was right about 2 things: 1st Micheal Vick is killer and an ABUSER of animals he shot them, he killed them when he was done with them and he electrocuted them look up the story
please Pamela so that you have have a very clear look at this person. Would you want him to take care of any one in your family I don't think so. You took offense because of what i said to you now just think about what Micheal Vick took from the dogs their life that a price to pay. He is still making money has a new line of clothing and is releasing a book on him self,really he has done NOTHING for the animals what so ever only thinking of himself and now He wants to have a dog again this is a big joke. It is the shame he has bought on his children and he has not told them the truth about what he did what a man and a person to LOOK UP TO. 2nd the remarks I made was to this church and the way THEY were attacking our military men and women you AS I can see you did not read the article before you starting attacking me with your reply this is why you always have to look before you leap. This church does not stand in my book not after reading what they have done and none of them belong near any of our military men and women funeral services that WILL be dealt with you will see. I never posted anything on your page it was you who posted something about Micheal Vick on a sport's page and I reply-ed that was it. I do not have you as a friend nor do I care to. I'm who I'm you are who you are that will never change. You can forgive but not I. I do not expect any payment I expect to stop people like MICHEAL VICK. By the way I never mention any thing about being Christian what I said was people like to use the GOD card all time when its beneficial for them. Pamela just leave things be good by
Aug 7, 2012
How is this free speech and protected yet Chick fil a owner saying God will judge America for redefining marriage which is not. I don't understand myself. It far less offensive to state something in an interview than have protest signs outside a funeral.I am sick of the liberal spin on what is free speech and what is not.
Aug 7, 2012
They get attention for negative behavior. Don't waste your time on them focus your attention to helping a soldier instead. My god loves us all…
Aug 9, 2012
Oh, but there are so MANY examples, David. Look at the preachers in the South preaching hate towards gay people and the church congregation that wouldn't let a black couple get married in their church, even though they had been attending church there. And I don't believe, David, that I said ALL – just way too many.
Aug 11, 2012
God is not present in this church and come judgemwnt day, members will pay for they evil thoughts and actions.
Aug 12, 2012
I think they are lucky to be where their at! They might need those soldiers to protect their right to be Dumb As–
Aug 13, 2012
these people aren't Christians. they use the name to harass and terrorize people…sick and pathetic

They are pretty damn vile. Their delusional concept of reality takes them as from away from their Christ as those worshiping demons.
