Westboro Baptist is coming to my town

They're coming to Spartanburg SC to protest at Converse College because they are showing the film anatomy of hate. http://www.ericschrotenboer.com/uncatego...hate-film/

They will be here on valentines day. Lovely, huh?

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!

Maybe organize a "God Loves Queers" counter-demonstration?

Congratulations on the attention. It means that college is doing something right.

I'm sure there will be one. Converse is an all girls school and I don't know if they will even be allowed on campus. Though i'm in the south, I think Converse is supposed to be a fairly "liberal" college... They won't be well recieved. I'd love to protest, but it's on valentines day and i'm sure my girlfriend would rather me take her out than protest those Bible thumping idiots.

I don't know if I've posted this before but I'd dress up as a clown, introduce myself as "Phelpsie" and hold up a mock version of their sign that reads "God hates figs. Come hither or whither. Mark 11:14"

I'd try to protest along side the Phelpses, claiming "we clowns have got to stick together."

"Oh no, boys and girls. Boogie boogie!" (response to any threats of Hell).

"No, no, God hates figs. FIGS! We're a fig-eater-tolerant nation, despite Jebus saying no one should eat from the fig tree again. That's why the sky daddy is causing our troops to die in Iraq. Clear cause-and-effect there. Do I have to draw it out for you?"

"De de dedede det de dedede" (sung to the tune of famous circus clown music)

"Everyone be afraid of the sky daddy. Boogie boogie boys and girls."

"Do not research the Valley of Gehenna. That'll tell you where they got their ideas of Hell."

"I'm a True Christian. I believe every word of this book. Even the parts that contradict each other."
Here's the story of Jesus cursing the fig tree:

Jesus Curses a Tree (Brick Testament)

So what was the deal with the naked young man found with Jesus when he was arrested?

When I read it, I just figured he was doing him in the bum.

Or visa-versa.
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

They know their bible though don't they. According to "the law" they are right.

You know what the naked young man bit seems to have escaped my attention when I read it. The rest of the tale must have numbed my brain.
Thanks for pointing it out guys.

Heelarious.
