The Westboro Baptist Church is coming to invade my city!
#1
Sad 
The Westboro Baptist Church is coming to invade my city!
You all probably know who these idiots are. But if you arent too sure, I'll explain . Its a church that doesn't really act like a religion. Its more of a cult. The sad thing is that they probably follow the bible more closely than any other Christian denomination. (Sad). And everyone hates their guts. Having the lovely title http://www.godhatesfags.com/ as their website url, the Westboro baptist church is against the some of the following things:


1)Fornication
2)Adultrey
3)Sodomy
and the really awesome fantastic ones:
4)Divorce
5)Remarriage
6)Homosexuals
7)Veterans
8) The Troops
and more.


At the places they are protesting you can usually spot them with colorful signs with things like this:
GOD HATES FAGS, FAGS HATE GOD, AIDS CURES FAGS, THANK GOD FOR AIDS, FAGS BURN IN HELL, FAGS DOOM NATIONS, THANK GOD FOR DEAD SOLDIERS, FAG TROOPS, GOD BLEW UP THE TROOPS, GOD HATES AMERICA, AMERICA IS DOOMED, THE WORLD IS DOOMED, etc.


I actually watched a 10 minute long video earlier, about the church. It interviewed a young woman who actually decided to leave the church, and when she did her family banned her from ever coming back to her family. And they admited that she was going to go to hell. The same video I watched today also showed children who were as young as 3 years old singing songs with lyrics like " God hates the world " and similar things as that. And not only did they sings such things, the song lyrics were full of cuss words, like the words mother fucker and probably worse. They even wear the shirts that say God Hates Fags on it and boycot with their parents and siblings with the signs. I really fucking hate them. Could you tell?


My point is that this "church" is coming to my home town (Spartanburg,SC) Monday. (Oh joy on Valentines day! ) I probably wont be able to make it to the protest but I have a lot of friends who will be there to protest against the Westboro Baptist. The "church" is planning on protesting at Converse College, a private all girls college, simply because they are showing a fim ( The Anatomy of Hate) that tells people that we should all just get a long. Apparently that doesn't sound too good to the freaks at Westboro Baptist.
This is what it exactly says on their website:


Lever Auditorium of Converse College in Spartanburg, SC February 14, 2011 6:15 PM - 7:00 PM
WBC to picket the screening of The Anatomy of Hate at Converse College.
Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. Leviticus 19:17
God Almighty told you what "hate" is: it's your refusal to rebuke proud sin! Keep pretending that preaching the righteous judgments of God against proud rebels is equivalent to violent crimes based on personal ill-will. That hollow lie is obious on its face, however, and won't change God's verdict on the matter.
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil. Isaiah 5:20
Your destruction is imminent! Obey or Perish!


So yeah...bucnh of fuckwits (as Richard Dawkins would say) ...


By the way if you want to make sure your prepared for the Westboro crazies if they were to show up at your home town , here is a list of places they plan on terrorizing. http://www.godhatesfags.com/schedule.html



And lastly for your entertainment... here is the really sad video I watched earlier along with some very humorous pictures.

I posted a topic on this earlier, but this has more information.

Considering Converse is a private school, I doubt they will even be allowed on campus.

Yeah but from what I can tell they will try to do it as close as they can get to the College.

Quite true. They are louder than the rest though.

the definitions are very close and in a lot of ways relatively the same. The difference seems to be, (although not by the dictionary, more like peoples definition) that the word cult just automatically adds a negative stigma. For me at least it seems that when you line up the different cults/religions, that don't seem all that different.

Q. What's the difference between a cult and a religion?

A. The word "cult" is never used in the 1st person.

I actually know the Westboro Baptist church goes by the bible probably 100%. They are true Christians really. Which makes them annoying and probably very dangerous.

The more footage I watch of them the more my hatred grows for them. Its really sad that they are going to my hometown just because of a film. What a bunch of dumb asses.
That fire that the Westboro people had got (explained in that video) , should have burnt them all alive. Just saying.

Thankfully they're not coming to Canada, I doubt they'd be allowed across the border with their constant hate-spewing. Although that means I'll miss the chance to protest these pricks... Oh well, can't have it all.
