If it helps, the next time you hear them railing against fags, just remember that a fag is either a cigarette or a bundle of sticks. It kind of disarms their argument if you imagine them hating sticks.

I would hope so, it would be kind of negligent on their part if they have not, and I wonder how you would get in touch with to see.

I agree, according to them basically everyone one the planet is going to hell, thankfully they don’t decide who goes to heaven. From a theological position they are completely of on what one has to do to get to heaven.

Yes I love seeing them on the run, or getting opposed by some other group.

On the bright side, however, it looks like this wretched little group is probably going to end with the latest generation, who I've heard are not into getting married. Funny how they rail against any non-straight and non-married sex acts, yet their own children don't seem to want sex at all. Good riddance to bad rubbish, eh?

Yes, death to the crazy family. Although that theory depends upon them not being killed before that. I’m waiting for one of them to be gay, or lesbian and having Fred Phillips go on some massive killing spree against his own family. He probably would, just another reason to remove the kids from their custody.

This is really very pointless.

Maybe. It is interesting to note that they usually don’t respond, or just go on a rant when you throw scripture at them. It may never work but is great to see their reactions. They either shrink away, or they just start ranting about how God hates everyone, except them.

I would like to see some type of action that would keep them from demonstrating at all.
Maybe we can just take their kids away, and then the family would go crazy try something stupid, and then we could land them all in prison.

This is really very pointless. I know you wholly believe you've got the Bible figured out and they're missing the point entirely, but I'm sure that's exactly how they feel about you. You just can't beat religious extremists with scripture...they'll always take certain parts symbolically and other parts metaphorically and other parts literally until it all conforms perfectly with their agenda.

I'm with Ikki. It's best to just ignore them.

As much as WBC pisses me off, I have to realize that it's probably best to just point and laugh. They're ridiculous and obviously wrong.

Yeah. I kind of wonder if child services has seen some of that footage.

They do do one thing though: They show me that if I have children, I don't want to treat them like that, albeit with a liberal aimed cause.

DON'T send them messages. They'll just give you rhetoric and tell you you're going to Hell. They don't care.

That’s what I would expect. Interestingly I have not gotten any response at all, I suspect it is because I am quoting the bible to them and they can’t answer that.

I think that it is good to send them messages, especially if those messages are full of points from the bible. They can’t deny the teaching of the bible that they claim to follow. But I have noticed that this group has very little knowledge of that the real message of the bible is. Even if you aren’t a Christian send them emails with verses from the bible that directly contradict their beliefs. You can get the verses from bible gateway. Some great verses to throw in their face are; John 3:16, Romans 5:6-8, and Mathew 7: 1-5

Let’s flood their email with quotes from the bible, the very book that they claim to follow to the letter.


If anybody knows any of their other email addresses can you post them.

I suggest you open each in a different tab and let them load while you watch. It's basically a documentary on the Phelp's family.

They are the worst group in the world. I can think of no other group that I despise more. And the sick part is what they do to their kids. They are destroying the lives of their children by raising them in this fashion. There are some videos and they have their little six year old kids out with them, and that is inexcusable. The government should really remove these kids from their parent’s custody. Also these people aren’t Christians; they are some messed up cult. Multiple Christian groups have tried to confront them, but these people just drown everyone out with their stupid rants. I tried to email them myself, and have tried repeatedly, but they never respond. Actually, here is one of their email addresses if any of you want to send them any messages. 'info@godhatesamerica.com'

Okay, for clarification... Because maybe the person who voted for the last option didn't get it: The last option means that you agree with every bit of the propoganda, or are a member.

I watched a clip today of these same people protesting the funerals of servicemen who have perished in Iraq.

Crazy people who give "Christian" a really bad name.
