There is no difference between the message the WBC spreads and message of the 700 Club or Focus on The Family....the language may be more crude but the message is the same.

They are all one in the same, there is no difference between Pat Robertson or any of the other nutcase xians and what Fred Phelps does. They are all homophobes. Xians are just a bunch of haters who want to demonize everyone who doesn't follow their insane teachings.

James Dobson, Jerry Fallwell, Pat Robertson and Tony Perkims all wear much nicer suits, and can talk to someone for several minutes before screaming, "You goin' ta hay-ell you queer lover!" and have most of their own teeth, which the Westboro Baptist Gang, who have been unemployed since working as extras on the set of the 1970's hillbilly horror flik "Deliverance", do not.

Why do people insist on lumping all people into a basket who claim to believe the same thing? Think of any "category" you belong to and tell me if you are 100% in agreement with the rest of them. I have beliefs. I think the WBC is sick and wrong, and that seems fundamentally obvious. If people just sit quietly and watch while people disgrace their name, then we are accepting their actions. If we disagree, it is our duty to speak up. I hear people asking "where are the Muslims denying that these jihad people are true Islam believers?" Not all people believe the same, so if there is disagreement, there will be a difference.
I believe homosexuality is a sin, just as these people are saying, but my response to that is very very different. I believe that their actions are a sin. Their response to one verse is not in line with all the others. That is called cut and paste theology. That - I have a problem with.

The parallel fails on one significant element. Wright is racially obsessed and the others are no longer. this is the racial information and divisiveness it is the subject. Seeing secularist western civilization frequently and American way of existence exceptionally as debased and lost isn't any fault and to be inspired. this isn't any diverse than the prophets lamenting immorality, Jesus attacking the Jewish way of existence of his day, Socrates attacking the Athenian way of existence, Livy or Augustine attacking the Roman way of existence, and Luther attacking the corruption of the Church in 1517. in addition to, you will see comparable statements on the Huffington placed up or the different leftist weblog, nonetheless from a various perspective and reason. healthful grievance of a debauched and immoral way of existence isn't basically with stable precedent yet needed, yet a divisiveness in step with racial information is silly, puerlile, and ignorant.

I am critical of them all. I think that any "Christian" who spreads hate, fear, intolerance, and division ought to reconsider the foundations of what they believe and why. Phelps, Falwell, Dobson, and Robertson, as well as others who preach similar messages, are further from the kingdom of God than any of the targets of their vitriol.

Christians are critical because these messages (regardless of who is spreading them: Falwell, Robertson, etc…) are mostly not based on anything Christ taught. They are often anti-Christian in behavior and content. They give Christians a bad name by portraying them falsely. Why not be critical of that?

I am a Christian, and I don't like it when any of these people spout off their typically hateful, ignorant rants. I think a lot of Christians also don't understand why they don't hear Muslims constantly condemning the acts of Muslim fundamentalists, but they don't condemn the things that Christian fundamentalists say/do. My humble opinion is that it is the height of hypocrisy.

The protests are what have made me dispise WBC so much. I've never even heard of them before today! And I mean come on...with a website called godhatesfags.com - that just show's how dispicable they are. GOD LOVES EVERYONE. A true christian knows that. I will keep the members of the WBC in my prayers that they will see the error of their ways.

It's the way they spead their message.
It's unscriptural to spread the message that way.
Freedom of speech is wonderful.
Hate is not.
