This is from a website a relative sent me -
"Hate based response: The Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) is an unaffiliated Baptist congregation who base much of their belief system on the principle that God hates homosexuals. They sponsor the GodHatesFags.com web site, and teach that most of the world's ills are caused by the increased acceptance and tolerance of gays, lesbians and bisexuals. They advocate the re-criminalization of same-sex sexual behavior, and advocate the death penalty as the appropriate, Bible-based punishment. According to Wikipedia, there are strong suggestions in the church teachings of racial bigotry, and religious hatred directed against Roman Catholics, Mormons, liberal Christians, Muslims, and Jews. In recent months, the WBC has regularly picket funerals of service persons killed in Iraq. They believe that the deaths are God's judgment on America. 6
The WBC had planned to picket the funerals of the Amish children. They said that they were planning to take this action "... in punishment for Gov. Ed. Rendell's blasphemous sins against the WBC. ... [He] slandered and mocked and ridiculed and condemned Westboro Baptist Church on national Fox TV." However, OCT-04, they cancelled the picketing because they were able to arrange to have a WBC spokesperson featured on the Mike Gallagher Show on OCT-05."
If anyone on this here green earth needs to be take out by a high powered rifle, Phelps should be the one.
