I won’t lower myself to his level. I won’t celebrate either. When he’s gone he’s gone.
For a dude with about 17 followers, Phelps sure gets a lot of attention and reaction.
Take the bastard out behind the barn and shoot him.
But puhlease, to all those who pile on to Fred Phelps whenever his name and Westboro BC comes up, could you now pay some attention Islam?
I would ignore him. That is what he deserves.
He should be ignored - totally. Sent to the grave as an after thought and a bad lingering taste nobody cares waste any further energy on.
Ignored.
He should be ignored for eternity.
He would probably like that. That is good enough reason to stay away.
They get their money by suing governmental entities that pass laws to try and keep them away from funerals. They did that in Sarpy County Nebraska a couple of years ago. It came out in the paper that they had a whole string of lawsuits and won most of them.
No.
By using their tactics you only elevate them into the realm of “acceptable”.
I hope his service gets picketed by the families of Fallen Hroes.
Then his body is feed to pigs.
If your thinking generally follows that of Phelps (in principle, if not in the particulars), then his funeral should be similarly treated as he and his followers treated others. Certainly.
It will be interesting to see who does, or does not, think much the same as Phelps.
Westboro Baptist Church is going to picket his funeral, since he was excommunicated from the church.
His daughter calls Phelps a fag-loving whore (her words) and says he deserves it.
I read:
Fred Phelps legacy: Should Westboro Baptist founder be PICKLED when he dies?.............
“he made religious hostility to homosexuality repulsive”
Not exactly, but it sure makes it harder to avoid being called a kook for not wanting sexual deviants to take boys in the woods overnight.
Nope ... ignored would be better.
What he did was wrong so I don’t see how behaving like he did would be right, however, if he and his group protested at one of my loved one’s funerals, I wouldn’t hold myself to such a noble standard.
It’s an interesting question, but probably moot. He is going to get picketed. It’s just a matter of how big.
Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, "Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, "I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' Matthew 7:21-23
"Where worm does not die
And the fire is not quenched."
This is a confirmation of my theory that Westboro is a “False Flag Operation”.
100 percent NO!
To mimic the actions of an insane person makes you insane too.
Do not stoop to the antics of this group of nuts.
