These wackos sound like the kind who grow up to be suicide bombers. I say give em a place to practice!

The Chicago area has especially witnessed a lot of these morons the last few years and the State of IL passed a law that they have to stay I think 100 yards away. Sure not far enough in my estimation. How unbelievably cruel to to the family and friends of the deceased. Deeply offensive to anyone with any shred of humanity.

I also personally wish the news media would leave the familys alone at these funerals/services. Without the media presence I bet these morons wouldn't show up to disrupt.

Good point. Sounds like they're only in it for the coverage.

Though, why do it at all? If God's already decided, what possible purpose can it have for them? Do they just like to flaunt it in front of everybody else?

Sure sounds that way, doesn't it?

How can that group call themselves Baptist Christians? No wonder we can not bring more of the lost to Christ with these guys runnin around.

Whatever, their leader's probably a closet homosexual that can't come to terms with who he is so he has to spread the hate to prove to himself how straight he is.

"The church's actions spurred a measure, signed into law by President Bush on Memorial Day, that prohibits protests at or near national cemeteries. Baucus voted for the Respect for America's Fallen Heroes Act, hence Westboro's presence at his nephew's funeral, according to Westboro attorney Shirley Phelps-Roper. About 26 states have enacted similar laws, she said."

I guess that if they need that much publicity, they must know that what they hold is wrong...

It really bugs me that she (and her family) attempts to represent Christianity. I can't begin to imagine how many people have a bad opinion of the Church after hearing them.

Its easy however to see through them if you study the Bible and see how God would truely deal with this situation.

Without beginning a religous debate, I would entertain discussion privately with those who feel the need to talk about this.

I would not worry too much. God's plan is not so easy to thwart.

I just wish all the evil done in the name of Christ was so easy to spot.
