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.

These people aren't any different. | 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....  |

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.
