This should be a reminder to all - regardless of how bad things get these days - of civil strife, political huckstering and disease pandemic - it could be worse.
That miserable prick Fred could still be alive...
At least Phelps rescinded his homophobia, while John Paul II homophobic legacy still lives on. He considered homosexuality to be intrinsic moral evil until his death.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
