WBC has one mission: Make religions look bad.

This is their best forum to date.

That “church” is a hotspot for evil.

I guess the ‘Burros want to be seen as equal opportunity haters, so they’ve added this lefty icon to their list.

I’d almost be disappointed in them if they didn’t.

Certain religions have major problems ... and it shows.

Stupid bunch of apostate Baptists ~ don't they know that Steve is Buddhist?

There are going to be people there who won't care about American law ~ so, what can I say?!

Can I say this, the Phelps clan is in serious danger of disappearing somewhere. Don't they know how many Buddhists and Taoists have employment that depends on Steve's marketing concepts?

It is more than religion. They are leftists under the umbrella of a church. I would not be surprised to soon see them with Wall St. groups, if they are not already there.

Good. I want to hear the Left comment on this group now that the group is attacking one of their own. Jobs was a dyed in the wool liberal and big Dem contributor.

I think most folks know that these id’jets are a freakin’ joke by now. They’ve gone from fostering outrage to just being laughed at.
I laugh at them and their “god”. We all should.

How on earth can this phony ‘Baptist Church’ be defeated or rendered impotent?

This has to be the most diabolical and successful perverted use of a ‘religious name affiliation’ in the annals of Piven/Alinsky.

Could “Atheists for Christian Ethics” (ACE) work?

The best part is? Margie Phelps sent the tweet from an iPhone.

Jobs was just another rich man who made us all richer and more prosperous whether we ever used an Apple product or not. Created more jobs directly and indirectly than all politicians combined.

So....they are protesting the mother who chose NOT to abort, but chose to put SJ up for adoption, and also protest the gracious (and heterosexual) parents who chose to adopt him? What a bunch of idiots!

They aren’t Baptists in spite of the name. They are Tachomites. They even have their own scriptures that supersede the Bible and Phelps has a higher standing than Jesus to them.

But does he have a pet dog? Buddha had a little pet dog. Then there are the Fu Dogs developed at a later time ~ they are highly stylized LIONS that stand guard at the entrance to many Buddhist temples.

Without a pet dog the Buddhists don't care what kind of Tachomite Phelps is. He's just another punk threatening their electronics manufacturing facilities.

Their level of validation is in direct proportion to the level at which they are noticed and tolerated. Someone needs to stuff them in a dumpster with 5 gal. of kerosene and a hot Zippo.
