If you were going to go to a wbc picket and hold a sign, what would it say?
"Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."

How about "If these guys were any further in the closet, they'd be in Narnia!!"

"I have a sign". "Me too". Lol.

I like the "fuck this guy" sign.

I'd hold up signs with OT bible verses. The kind that most religious people like to gloss over. "Rape is ok, as long as she's a virgin. Deuteronomy 22:28".
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

"This is your brain."
"This is your brain on Christianity." (arrow)
"Any questions?"

Perhaps only my generation would get that?

"Is this Christian Love?" with an arrow?
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

When I die, cremate me after harvesting my body for any organs that are still usable and draining all the blood if it can be used. Please don't do the macabre preserving my body with chemicals, dressing me up in my finest and then putting me in a comfy looking box. WTF is that all about?

Then take my ashes and fly them to Jerusalem, and dump them into the Valley of Gehenna, the place believed to be the valley of the damned and the inspiration for Hell.

That way, when the Westboro folks come to protest, saying I went to Hell, everyone can smile and truthfully say, "yes, he did."

I fully support these guys. I'm sure if they show up at Leonard Nimoy's funeral the "Patriot Guard Riders" will be there.
