Westboro Baptist church at it again

Westboro Baptist Church To Protest LDS President's Funeral by Bob B. — connections, gather, comments | Gather

This is not typical of other baptists, they are the extreme idiots that should make most baptists cringe at the possibility of being associated with them, much the same as SOME here have tried to associate the FLDS with the LDS.

Exactly, I have no idea what gospels they were reading but they certainly aren't the ones that I read.

The more "organized" churches kick them out....Catholics and Mormons have processes whereby you can be excommunicated for bad behaviour, or even unchristian behavior. But with Baptists, there are so many different groupings, and most likely WBC is not connected with any of those groups.

Famous Will Rogers quote, "I am not a member of an organized religion. I am a Baptist".
He said the same thing about democrats, just substitute politics for religion, and democrat for Baptist....

They old school, as in old testament. And anyone who isn't a Biblical literalist isn't a Christian in their eyes.

I wish I could find the YouTube video where, when questioned about it, they said that the earth rotating around the sun was a matter of perception, and that the Bible was still infallible.

Re: Westboro Baptist church at it again

Well lets put my liberal head on and see where we get.

This is their culture and its Americas own fault for supporting things they are against.Why arent you pandering to their beliefs.Your allowing people to be gay in their holy land.

Their actions couldnt possibly come from their holy book its Americas domestic policy thats to blame.

Re: Westboro Baptist church at it again

These people hold such ridiculous beliefs, it's laughable.
No one with half a mind would pay any attention to these nutcases - after all, attention is what they crave.
