Today I was doing something online, (I really don't remember how it started i think from here) and I saw something about god hating shrimp. I thought that was pretty funny so I went to the website just for fun. It pokes fun at extremists by saying "why stop at protesting gays? shellfish is a sin too!!!" It is just a joke website with a bit of a message about how ridiculous extremists can be.
As I look into the website a little I found one called Godhatesfags.com. Again, I thought it was a joke website. Its not. I first thought this because it seems kinda silly right? To say something that offensive and uneducated. And on it was a little box with a label stating: # of people that god has sent to hell since you have been on this website. This really seemed rediculous to me so I started looking for a place where it would say that it is a joke website. It never did.
So I guess its real? Is it? I did not look too closely because I really don't want to be right. When I started thinking it might be real, I was not thinking about how ridiculous it is and how weird extremists are. Th e message of pure hate that the WBC is sending out made me almost want to cry. I am an atheist and therefore 'dammed to hell' and when people tell me that I am likely to engage in a debate but reading this, I could not feel any other feeling of disappointment. Disappointment within people.
Does anyone else feel this way? I just want to see your reactions to this, and want to know what you think.

So it's really a limiting law ... are megaphones good for 300 feet?
Even though I despise religion, I would myself wear some of those angel wings. That is a brilliant idea.
Thanks for the information! I think this is a victory that even I can agree with

I dont want to single her out and say other funrals are worthy of that hate. Im not trying to say that but... she is a 9 year old girl!!!! The only reason they are going is for attention!!!!!! Really what could she have done wrong?!?! I am very happy that they are trying to do something about this.

Are so that is the reason I heard for what she did wrong.. All catholics go to hell according to these people.
FOR THE RECORD I DID NOT SAY THAT they did!

"God sent the shooter! Praise God for ALL his works, and BE YE THANKFUL!."
That was another quote that was made by them.

It was hard to read this for two reasons, 1) because it followed no logic what so ever and 2) the font was kinda dark... I suggest highlighting it so you can read better. But as for figuring it out... dont look at me, I'm lost.
Thanks for giving me a reason :) Even if I disagree its good important to know why. (it will never be good :( )
Permalink Reply by Jennifer Ulean Breedlove on January 11, 2011 at 5:32pm I have been having problems with the font on my end too.
I agree it is insane..
But I had to know why they wanted to picket at the little girls funeral.. I am still looking for that article.. It seems the person I know on Facebook who posted it might have taken it down, I am gonna have to go see if I can find it.. else where.

We all know God enjoys sharing sin between parents and children and for many generations for the iniquity of the parents.
Technically , based off the bible , Fred Phelps is correct.
