I hope that's not real, but sadly, it probably is.
This is just the kind of thing WBC wants, it's already a media frenzy, all they have to do is jump in to get the attention they crave.
Edit: So do you go to hell if you kill someone in a movie too? Or just if you pretend to be homosexual? Bulletproof logic right there.

Whatever happened to 'Judge not and ye shall not be judged'?? It's not their place to condemn people. I'm not someone who swears, but they really are self righteous b*****ds. They give all the normal non-fanatic Christians a bad name.

« Kitsune86 : Whatever happened to 'Judge not and ye shall not be judged'?? It's not their place to condemn people. I'm not someone who swears, but they really are self righteous b*****ds. They give all the normal non-fanatic Christians a bad name. I agree. I try not to judge people at all and especially based on their beliefs, but WBC I don't believe is truly Christian. They're protesting at funerals, judging people, and condemning people to hell. None of that is a very Christian thing to do. Despite their religious beliefs, funerals should remain a time for grieving and remembering someone who has passed. If the "church" members want to believe that this actor is going to hell, fine. They don't need to smash it in the face of his family and friends.

I wish someone would point out to whomever wrote this that God doesn't "hate" anyone. He hates sin. There's a really big difference.

Going to church doesn't make you any more a Christian than going to the garage makes you a car.
The problem is that they think that they are Christian and by doing this. And as ReBoot pointed out, God doesn't hate anyone, He hates the sins they commit. But you just can't get through to people like that. Am I the only one seeing the similarities to the Pharisees?

Aren't these the people where all the "members" of the "church" are family members? Doesn't hold much credibility. Unfortunately, no one will ever get thru to them... until they reach the other side.

Just saying... what if they're right? You can back up a lot of things with the bible.
Some things you can back up with the bible directly contradict other things you can back up with the bible.

Unfortunately, no one will ever get thru to them... until they reach the other side. From what I understand, the vast majority of the congregation is made up of Phelps' family.
I did some research about a year and a half ago regarding legislation banning protests at funerals. From what I remember, they're pretty much all family. I remember for sure, though, that there are some members that are not part of the Phelps family.

« Rowangrey : Tell me you are kidding. Partially kidding yes.
The point I'm trying to make is that these guys are quoting the bible saying that god is wreaking vengeance for homosexuality by quoting passages from the bible.
More contemporary Christians would argue that they're full of hate, anger and s**t by quoting contradicting bible passages.
Other than illustrating that it's possible to have opposing views by focusing on different parts of the bible, there's no "ONE WAY" of getting the right message. Of course, everyone thinks their way is the right way and can back it up, but something's got to give.
