Westboro Baptist Church said that the bombings during the Boston Marathon were sent by God as punishment for same-sex marriage and that members would definitely show up at funerals to protest.
The group posted the message on its Twitter site, with a headline that read, Thank God for the Boston marathon bombs.
The release continued: WBC to picket the funeral of those killed by the bombing in Boston.
The federal government is classifying the bombs as a terrorist attack, but say its unclear if its of a domestic or foreign nature. Heres a hint God sent the bombs! How many more terrifying ways will you have the Lord injure and kill your fellow countrymen because you insist on nation-dooming filthy fag marriage?!

The OT is just as relevant and the NT. The problem I have with WBC is that they act like the there is only the Old Testament and they are perfect in the law.
They have completely missed the New Testament teaching that we are all equally guilty and the only perfection we will obtain is the covering of Christ’s blood.
Just because my favorite sin is more socially acceptable does not make me more deserving of God’s love. And by the same measure, just because what the homosexuals are doing is repugnant does not mean that God does not want to redeem them.
I wonder if they’d be thanking God if one of their own was killed. How would they feel if a bunch of scumbags like themselves came out and protested that funeral? I can bet they wouldn’t like it, just like God doesn’t like their hate group masquerading as a “church.”
I didn’t know that, but it is very appropriate.
If ever there were a bunch of people who needed to meet a subsonic...
I like what Ann Coulter calls them: Satanists.
Playing the marks. Getting upset at Westboro is like getting upset at professional wrestling referees.
