I agree. It'd be no different than burning Gerry Adams in effigy in front of a Catholic church, or (even though he's just a jerk, and not a terrorist) burning Fred Phelps in effigy in front of a Baptist church.

The problem with your analogy is that most Catholics don't support terrorism, and most Baptists aren't part of the "God gates fags" crowd.

Now Muslims, otoh, are virtually all for Shariah law, and I can pretty much guarante you that Muslims who congregate at the "King Fahd" mosque are of the Wahhabist bent, which is for the strictest kind of Shariah law.

Sorry, Fred Phelps is not Baptist, let alone Christian.

Phelps doesn't belong to any Baptist convention. I'd suggest the only place to hang him in effigy would be in front of his own church ~ not someone else's.
