They are self serving word twisters, and disregard much of the bible. It would be rightful for you to be angry at them. Heck, IM angry at them. However, dont brand the vast majority of loving Christianity (more commonly in protestant Christianity) like this church simply because they call themselves "baptist."
If you would like I could post some scripture that does show jesus' love?
As Larissa said, they get their dogma straight out of the Bible. Having read the Bible myself, I can say they're "right" about what it says. Yahweh really does hate "fags". Yahweh really does send disease, natural disasters and defeats in war against people who have offended him. Yahweh really is a bloodthirsty and sadistic god. At least according to the Bible.
I'm personally not so much angry at Westboro as I am appreciative of their prominent example of the asylum of Christianity.
