Where does it say that in the bible? I went to Catholc College, 10 years of CCD, married a youth minister and I've never once heard or read in the bible or Cathechism that God hates 'fags'. What I have read is
Luke 6:37 "Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven;
AND John 13:34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
Email Shirley that if you ever track her down.

That's Shirley Phelps-Roper, the (apparently) most photogenic of a hideous outgrowth of the Baptist church. Her father Fred Phelps is the minister to a congregation that includes about ninety members of their extended family and basically no one else.

The Bible calls this a sin. The wages of sin is death.
Being gay, etc.. is an abonimation.
God still loves you, but you send yourself to hell by disobeying
scriptures. and Yes, anyone who does not believe in God
will go to hell. Will you go to hell for talking to a gay person? No.
It is in The Bible. Read it for yourself, you don't have to have
anyone tell you anything. It's all there.

Despicable in a word.

I believe that you're referring to one of the spokesmen for the Westboro Baptist Church.
These 'loving' christians make it a point to picket and sermonize at the funerals of soldiers, claiming that they died because the US allows homosexuality to 'run rampant'. All death, according to them, is a divine punishment for homosexuality, and other 'affronts' to god and his word.
I don't know her personally, but I have seen enough interviews to understand that she, and the members of her family's congregation, are nothing more than bigots, and religious extremists. Thankfully, they don't speak for the entire christian population.

First of all she is NOT a christian if she judges others and condemns them without knowing them. Sounds like the squeaky wheel has some dirt hidden in her closet.
