Unhappy Westboro Baptists want to protest at the CT funerals.

It's absolutely disgusting, honestly, the families of those victims are going through enough already obviously, I don't even know what to say about this, it just sickens me. They have gone too far, honestly..

...I'm finding it hard to read any of the Westboro Baptist stuff...they're so full of hatred...and I just find it staggering that people think like that...let alone follow a 'religion' that supports it...but you said it all...sickening...

..would they 'celebrate' this happening to their own children and families...yes, they probably would, they're so misguided and hateful....

Thus giving them more airtime and headlines..I don't know why the press and media give them the platform

The most annoying thing is when people generalise it to make it look like all of Christianity is like this when it's far from the truth

This pretty much sums it up for me ^....it gives them attention and the more the media spotlight it the more the families of the deceased get to hear it.

Disgraceful and sickening.

...and they get the 'platform' because hate sells in the media..as it does on the internet...when people talk about punishments and debate death penalties...although Lanza is dead and beyond any punishment..he was probably quite 'sick' and in much need of help..so I still don't condone that....whereas these people are disgusting and hateful...misguided ****s..!!!!!....and the tragedy with them is that they're free to breed....therefore condemning more innocents into their hatred......killing the minds and hearts of children.....

The great thing is that when they announced this, that hacker group Anonymous posted all their personal details on the Internet as a counter move.

I actually found that facebook page in the first post from their personal details being posted somewhere else. o.o Anyway, it does appear that Shirley's facebook has been hacked since then, which she deserves.

People're wising up to them - there was a story somewhere, I think Stu posted it on Facebook, the 26 stories to restore your faith in humanity this year - where people learned of WBC plans to picket a soldier's funeral, and they formed a human chain around the entrance to the cemetery... it was really sweet, and such a simple and peaceful solution.

Obviously not reporting their hateful attention-seeking would be preferable.

Yeah, I saw those images last night. It was very heart warming.

I honestly think something needs to be done about that "church" though, it's absolutely disgusting.

There's a bunch of bikers called The Patriot Guard Riders, who show up to funerals on the families behalf, to keep Westboro away.

I'd throw the biggest gayest street party you could imagine with drag queens, leg warmers, the entire cast of Xanadu and Gloria Gaynor's discopgraphy on repeat.

Try putting your dearly departed homophobe to rest while the gays are re-enacting the end of Hairspray right next to you.

It wouldn't achieve anything, but it would be satisfying.

There is a believe though that God will allow disasters against his people and use ungodly nations to do it, to punish them for their disobedience.

This happened in the Old Testament with regards to Israel and Judah, when they were invaded by the Assyrian's and then the Babylonians.

I am also reading a book published in the 1990's or 1980's about the book of Revelation, which puts the case it is a prophecy about the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD by the Romans under Titus. The view is that God's people sinned and so they were to be punished.

However by then it was the Christians who were now in favour with God and they got out before it happened.

What we see now is that many evangelicals hold that because national government is bringing in laws contrary to the teaching of the Bible then he is allowing these disasters.

So does God punish us that way today?

My understanding of Luke 13:1-5 does not seem to point in that direction

Quote:
Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”

Yeah, I've been at a send off for US army members going to the middle east and I saw a few there and we chatted. They're all very nice people.
