Westboro Baptist Church

In reading about them online, did you know that according to the Westboro Baptist Church, God not only hates fags, he also hates the Swedish!

Who knew?

That's exactly what I was thinking. They were in the wrong neighborhood!

I don't understand a Faith that seems based on hatred of others. Surely God is supposed to be about love and treating others with kindness?!

It seems to me that 'persecution' would be something that God would abhor. I was not brought up in The Church but I thought most of the teachings we were meant to learn were about tolerance and forgiveness? Living a good life, yes, and encouraging others to change their ways maybe and live a good live too. Not to damn them to hell. That's God's decision.

ugh. that kind of thinking (and by that I mean nasty, spiteful, evil thinking) confuses me beyond almost anything else out there.

The more I find out about them, the more I'm convinced that their faith isn't based on hatred; it's based on Attention Whoredom. I've seen numerous interviews with their members where the smirks on their faces get wider the more people react angrily against them.

They're more of a cult than a church. There are no Christian denominations that recognize them, including the Baptist Church which they claim to be a part of.

sorry I could have written something witty and amusing but I was just appalled.

What did the Swedes ever do? cowperthwait September 21 2008, 20:25:46 UTC
I'm not wild about jumping into their site to find anti-Swede propaganda. Can you summarize?
