+341 It's not very Christian to picket a soldier's funeral with signs that say "God Hates You" and "You're Going to Hell", amirite?

its not very christian to do that anywhere, like a gay couples wedding for example.

I just wanted to state that as a Bible Believing Christian I am very offended by that group of people. They are completely retarded and clearly have not read the bible enough to know the Jesus tells us to love our neighbor. Don't dismiss the real Christians because of some clowns with signs.

just like not all gay teachers are trying to persuade your child to be gay. It sucks that a group is only as good as its weakest members. Thanks for you post by the way, I am also a christian who trys to promote understanding mercy and forgiveness.

I saw a news report about that and the woman behind it was totally ignorant. The things she said were terrible. I don't even understand how she believes those things.

believe me, people like that are fucking retarded. my best friend and her family are christian but they're the exact opposite (they're rather liberal) but doing that is being a TERRIBLE christian. fucking assholes

First of all it was great of O'Reilly to cover the costs for the father. Secondly, the group doesn't actually believe that (at least I don't think). They have close ties to a group of lawyers (or they are lawyers, I forget which) and by causing people to get pissed at them and infringing on their right to protest, they can file a civil suit and get money if they win, which is their main source of income. Believe it or not lots of "scams" like this are out there, so it's best to just ignore these types of groups/people, lest you end up in court owing lots of money.

That was absolutely appalling =[ It made me want to cry. The poor father only wanted to mourn his son...So sad. He shouldn't have had to deal with that.

I totally agree. After losing someone close to me I would never ever want that. I would completely lose my cool if I was the father

I wrote a paper about that for college. Man... Fred Phelps and Westboro Baptist Church is NOT Christian. They are a Anti-Semitic, homophobic, hateful cult.
