If anything, Fred's death will be a boon for the Christian community, because he and his "church" were doing far more to turn people away from religion than anything we atheists could ever dream of doing. By spreading around the most vile form of intolerance in the name of Christianity, the WBC continued to stereotype fundamentalist Christians as a bunch of pissed-off, intolerant bigots. However, if the WBC continues the work he started, then they'll continue to be a thorn in the side of Christians all across the country.
I just wonder, though, how long the WBC will last. According to the article the WBC has no central leadership since Fred was in charge of everything, but I'm guessing that Shirley and her siblings will probably keep running things. Of course they may have been running things for a while seeing as how they kicked Fred out.

Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
