The story and this thread seem to have a gag order on mentioning what the protest will be about. Something about fags? Are they for or against the fags?
No excuse for disturbing funerals. That’s just wrong.
How do these beyond-despicable members of the Westboro CULT have the means to pop up anywhere, any time at any funeral in the country? Just how many of these cult members ARE there?
This is from the 2010 Wikipedia entry on Fred Phelps, a Democrat, leader of the group:
"Phelps is a disbarred lawyer, founder of the Phelps Chartered law firm, a past civil rights activist in Kansas, and a Democrat who has five times been a candidate for political office in Kansas Democratic Party primaries."
The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), listed in Wikipedia as the largest association of Baptists in America, has this to say about Democrat Phelps and his crew:
20. Is Fred Phelps (the pastor of the Westboro Baptist Church and leader of those who protest under the slogan "God Hates Fags") or his church affiliated with the SBC?We share concern over the unbiblical views and offensive tactics of Fred Phelps and his followers at Westboro (Independent) Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas. Westboro does not have now, nor has ever had, any relationship with the Southern Baptist Convention. His extreme positions not only stand in contrast to the SBC, more importantly, they stand in contrast to God's Word. Scripture clearly teaches that homosexual behavior is sinful in the eyes of a just and holy God; but the Bible also clearly proclaims Gods love for all sinners, including homosexuals, and that He offers forgiveness to all who repent and place their faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ for our sins.
So the next time you hear some MSM propagandist lying about how Fred Phelps is a typical religious conservative, you will know the truth.
