Westboro Baptists Will Picket Paul Walker's Funeral

[bodecea]

No true Scotsman......

 

[westwall]

No, they're a bunch of kooks led by their father. It's basically a large extended family and they are loony. Christian they are not.

And aren't most of them attorney's??

Yes, this is how they advertise. And they have won some fairly significant civil rights cases.

The movie "The Devils Advocate" springs to mind.

 

[rightwinger]

They won't show up

They get the same outrage if they just post it on their website

Don't you people worry, Westboro, is a tax free entity.

Any thread title that has the word "westboro baptists" in it, should never be in the religion forum. It should be in the flame zone at the very least. They are not religious. Religion is just the tool they choose to use to make a living. They will suck fireballs with the likes of hitler for what they do. No doubt.

Is the behavior of the Westboro Baptist Church, picketing funerals, Christian behavior? Does it align with any Christian values or tenets?

No, it isn't Christian behavior, and it sure doesn't align with any "true" Christian's values or tenets. Just like in anything else, you have extremes, who have come up with their own idea of how to do something better and stray from the original concept, and end up with the complete opposite. Jesus dealt with such in his time, called them whitewashed tombs. You see people here on this forum spewing hate and then call themselves Christian....they do more harm to Christianity than if they didn't call themselves that.

Christianity is about "LOVE" - and anything that does not relate to love in some way, is not Christianity.

It is a business method. Has absolutely nothing to do with ANY belief system

True, but they are using religion as their cover.....very disingenuous.

Maybe. Maybe not. That has been challenged.

Short answer: No.

They belong in the same group as the 'preacher' who wants to burn Qurans every so often.

Speaking of....

The one thing they have in common? An unquenchable desire for media attention.

Apart from the missing punctuation, I hope so.
After all, heaven is a lot boring but hell is the place I can stick pitchforks into your goolies every day.
I may soak my pitchfork in sugar solution so my pet ants can enjoy a feast when I strap you down. Of course, the gang of gay bikers I'll room you with will have their fun first.

Dante had no idea of the reality of hell but I know all about it.

Cheers and see you for eternity,
Satan.

You two are as bad as the Westboro Baptist bunch.

Absolutely not.

I'm disgusted at that baptist lot, and I'm Satan so it takes quite a lot to disgust me.

Im starting to think anyone who gets protested by these people should hold it as a badge of honor.
