In matters of faith, I am no expert. Nor am I 'pure' by any means. My question and plea is to those who are more devout than I. Not because I lack the faith, but more I lack the knowledge.
Will noone stand against Shirley Phelps-Roper? Spreading hatred and pain cannot be in the best 'spiritual' intrest of any church. Why has noone taken a stand against these people?
I asked my mother, who is highly religous, and the best answer I could get is 'They will get theirs.' Yet, I felt no comfort from this statement. They picket the funerals of my fallen brothers, those who are slain at Virgina Tech, etc., etc.
As a former U.S. Marine, it pains me that I spent years of my life protecting the rights of these people as they use a slogan I tried to honor as a weapon against families during their childrens funerals. To watch as she and her clan dishonor their memory and sacrifice cuts a wound to my soul, I can't even explain.
