Topeka (Westboro Baptist) church says it will burn Qur’an (and American flag)

I don’t see any news about the imam’s comments anywhere. A few on FOX but that’s it. Plenty of news about the inbred morons burning the koran.

They aren’t really Baptist, they just have that name.
See #39.

Most people don’t even know who he is....doesn’t matter. The point is the left made such a big deal out of supporting Muslim rights when they were for them over the mosque!!! Terry Jones is a moron but he still has the right to burn the Koran and we should not be cowtowing to bunch of bigots stuck in the 7th century!!! Screw islam!!!!

Why the American Flag?

Westboro's joining in is a good thing. If Mooslimbs see the Koran burning beside the US flag, it defuels their outrage. Westboro will be dismissed as crazy.

The knucklehead in FL is far more dangerous. He also hates the US, but doesn't make it obvious.

From the start, the FL pastor's goal has been to bring harm to the US and our Troops. He knew his actions would spark anti-American outrage, and has been careful not to let his own anti-American colors show.

Westboro's joining-in is going to throw a wrench into the works for him.

Westboro Cult is working with The Mainstream Media....not with Dove Outreach

Westboro Cult is the only group that can say “God Hates Fags” and not have every gay rights group go postal....its obvious Westboro Cult and the MSM, with gay groups, are linked

Those who were supporting Islamic Terrorists, claiming Dove Outreach was working with Westboro Cult, were just practicing their Dhimmitude

[mnehring]

The dove people’s own website had proclamations of support for westboro and photos of them marching together.

Wrong.

Here is a picture of the two groups protesting together at a funeral in April.

Here is Dove's letter of "Support for Westboro Baptist Church."

How can people support Terry Jones for “standing up to terrorism” when he marches with people who hold up signs that say “Thank God For 9/11” ?????

I don’t get it.

(I know you are not one of those people)

[mnehring]

I call it the Faust syndrome.

They are so focused on who the enemy is, they will sell their soul to anyone they think is on their side, losing their objectivity to who they are teaming with.

It is similar to all the people cheering on the BNP in the UK.

They aren’t really Baptist, they just have that name.

They call themselves Baptists. They consider themselves to be good Baptists and follow the basic tennants. Since there is no central Baptist authority then there is nobody to say that they're not.

[mnehring]

..and follow the basic tennants..

How are they following basic tennants when they have their own scriptures (not the Bible) and consider Phelps the final arbiter on sin and they themselves have the power to condemn souls to hell?

They follow their interpretation of the Bible. Phelps and his crew have never said that they can condemn people to hell. People are headed to hell because they violate what Phelps and his mob believe are God's teachings. From their point of view it's God who is condemning them, Phelps is just pointing that out to them. I suppose that they consider themselves being helpful by doing that.

[mnehring]

You really don't know about Westboro besides the MSM label do you? They don't follow the Bible at all (not even their own interpertation). They are cultists known as Tachmonites who have their own scripture divided into two categories: "delectable epics" and "letters to heretics." The "delectable epics" (the term is the group's) are based loosely on Acts in the New Testament. The epics detail the Tachmonites' various protests against gays, President Bush, Elton John concerts, and the military and portray the Tachmonites alternately as invincible "super heroes" and defenseless victims of brutal rage. Some of the epics are in prose, and some in poetry. They believe Phelps is "the last prophet," with the power to determine who will be damned and who will be saved. They themselves, as followers of Phelps, also have the power to condemn souls to hell.

You should look up their scriptures and read them. It is deeply disturbing. They only put on a 'Christian' mask to the media, it isn't what they follow in their church.

In the link in 75, go to the downloads section, and look for Epic. (may be Epic Archive)

My respect for Petraeus has dropped considerably since his “statement” about Koran burnings endangering the troops.

Remember when the dims and the media called him General Betray us? That is what the troops are calling him now.

[PghBaldy]

Do you know that for years before protesting at military funerals, they would protest at the funerals of gay people? They just didn’t get the mileage they do from doing the military funerals. Eventually, they moved on to a new target, after the first target learned what to do to defuse them.

This probably deserved its own Post, but I’m tired.
