Comments on: God Hates Westboro Baptist Church

These people are certainly not following the Jesus I follow. John 3:16, which even many non-believers can quote, clearly says “for God so loved the world.” God is grieved by sins that all of us commit against Him, but these people are totally blaspheming God by their actions. The word “church” should in no way be attached to them. As a 3rd generation navy veteran myself, it especially troubles me that people who call themselves Christian would protest at and be joyful over military funerals. Sadly, these are the ones that get the attention and further reinforces the mistaken notion that Christianity is full of hate and bigotry. They should be reflecting the love of Jesus and preaching that there is hope, mercy, and forgiveness for all, regardless of what we’ve done.

“God’s judgment on the United States for tolerating gays”

What is that all about? The 1st amendment rights are clearly over-arching its use when stupid statements like this can be accepted as not only a valid opinion to hold but also that those opinions should be cherised and protected.

Especially when an opinion like that can so easily be dis-proved.

These people are exercising their 1st amendment rights. I too am disgusted by their tactics. There are far better ways to express your opposition to the war than to prey on the grief of family and friends of the fallen soldiers. However, as a country do we really want to start to go down the path of limiting free speech? Who decides? The Supreme Court? If so, then flag burning, protesting at funerals or memorials are all legal expressions of free speech. I would rather let the general public judge these misguided souls than prohibit their rights to be misguided souls.

Wow…I know there is a wide range of beliefs surrounding ideas such as gay lifestyle but I have never heard of people who celebrate a death as some sort of payback. That’s really scary. I feel like these people give people who practice religion a bad name. ~Bill

Wow… I’m not Christian, but wow… How could people be like that?… I’m really speechless. How on Earth could somebody think like that? They have the whole thought of Biblical retribution mixed up with Unholy Punishment.

God is vengful. The Bible states that, but he isn’t an a$$ to people just because they don’t follow the Bible to the letter. Of course he punished Sodom and Gamora because they were gay’s and other things(not getting too into it for there are possibly kids on the site), but it was mostly because they refused to believe in his exsistence. People think that instantly means God hates gay’s… Read the Bible if you’re going to be Christian. And I mean REALLY read it. God doesn’t hate gay’s. He doesn’t punish people for going to war. He definately doesn’t cause your plane to crash just because you didn’t go to church every day of your life. He is also merciful. Everyone tends to forget that part.

I’m not Christian and I know of the Bible that most “so called Christians.” I read it tirelessly on my quest for faith in my younger years. I’ve read every known kind of religious text from the Koran to the Bible. Yes, God’s are considered venguful, but they are much more merciful than that. People read what they want to and skim the rest.

About them doing the crap with the soldiers… If it weren’t for our Soldiers… They picket soldier’s funerals and all that. If it weren’t for those men and women DYING FOR US! FOR YOU!… You’d probly be Muslim you ungreatful (insert bad word). People enjoy comming home to their families without the fear of somebody kicking in the door because you said something that somebody didn’t like and they told a government official. we enjoy equality and being free. We have choices BECAUSE OUR SOLDIERS PROTECT THEM! People don’t understand what we have. There are countries out there that still chop off hands when somebody is caught stealing. There are countries where peole go to jail for years because they openly said they didn’t like a high official.

Some people really need help.

P.S. – My friend Wendy (she’s VERY Christian) who sits beside me at work here agrees with this and some of these words are hers as well.

I just……….I just……….ARRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!I cannot believe these people. They are terrible. Why? How could they? It’s inhuman! I have no doubt they will be among those who attempt to destroy our lives and bring down the nation around our ears. It angers me. And they know nothing of God. No HUMAN BEING could possibly DO SUCH A THING!!!!!!! The world may be coming at an end as we know it. I can’t believe it………God help us all.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is NATO Phonetic for the letters WTF… which on Battlestar Galactica (BSG) would stand for “What The Frak?”. The modern military translation is very close to BSG’s.

“Whiskey Tango Foxtrot”?

they live in total illusion, blinding themselves with communist or Nazi style propaganda. They will regret it someday, hopefully when they’re still alive and able to repent, not after they’re dead and judgement is past.

[...] I was at a funeral two days ago. I was reminded of the idiots who protest at the funerals of fallen American soldiers that I blogged about recently. It hit me at one point… during the the solemnity and grief of the moment, as family members around me were crying and consoling each other… how utterly and indescribably wrong it is to heckle grieving family members at a funeral. No, really… whatever you are imagining in you mind, you can easily triple it if you are really there. There’s nothing to stop me from mechanically agitating (to use engineering terms) those funeral protesters, should I ever encounter one, until I’ve successfully caused a chemical shift in their neural activity.

Yeah, their website is a terrible testimony. They are actively puching people further from the cross.

I was just at a funeral yesterday and it made this issue that much more poignant. I was trying to imagine… with the emotions of the moment and the grieving family members… I was trying to imagine the feeling of a group of people shouting at me and holding signs thanking God that my family member was dead.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

I have just looked over their website and I have nothing but anger and at the same time pity for these useless fools. How dare they desecrate our Flag! How dare they use God’s name to push their misguided agendas. Every state in this country should pass legislation immediately to keep these morons out of sight and contained so their message of hate and bigotry cannot be heard.

God is watchful too and their time will come and they will be surprised with THEIR special place in Hell too.

They are purely evil. I once stumbled across their site and felt a surge of hatred run through my bones. This surge was prompted by reading that garbage. They are the opposite of what Christ wanted all of us to be and it is so very offensive that they say they are Christians. And freegans- well, they are like scavengers. We all need scavengers to clean up the garbage and eat it if needbe. But we don’t need hatemongering bigots who bear false witness and alligience to God!

Ha!

Jesus had an appropriate appellation for such persons: blasphemers of the the Holy Spirit (Matt. 12:29-37; Mark 3:29, 30) who are persons who call good evil and evil good.

You are right, a place has been reserved for them, and as Mark 3:29 says, they “…never shall have forgiveness.”

Great thought. I didn’t even think about Jeremiah. I always thought his witness in the face of his own persecution was a remarkable example.

They are the perfect antitype of Jeremiah and of God. Unlike these crazies, Jeremiah correctly predicted and shrewdly recognized the judgment of God… but instead of dancing he lamented. And God himself laments, he said,

“As I live, declares the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked…”

May they repent…
