xMinionX: "Anyone else get the impression that the editor and submittor of that clip is a WBC supporter? (Check out the blurb and the editing at the end)"
You're correct, although it's hard to imagine how the WBC or any supporter of it could think the video showed them in any positive light (or we just don't understand their particular brand of psychosis). They're probably thinking "See, we took on Fox News, and we won!"
Jeremy PC,
Agreed. I can certainly understand getting angry at such a bigoted and thorough waste of a human being. This kind of thinking "in the name of God" is one of the reasons I am an athiest. However, the interviewer showed a complete lack of professionalism and objectivity. Not once did she allow the "guest" to answer a question without shouting over her. It might actually would have been interesting to hear the Westboro rep's answers just to see what kind of convoluted thinking is behind their stance.
I'm gonna say something I said to Whitewater on the boards: Mel Brooks once said that if you get on a soapbox and preach against Hitler, your'e just as bad as he was, but if you succeed in ridiculing him, then you win in the end.
What I mean is that people, especially Fox News should really just ridicule, humiliate, embarass and poke fun at the Phelps family rather than engaging in a serious debate with them. The key is not to allow Phelps to get you angry, but get them angry instead.
Two points.
One, The Phelps and their disquisting ilk really are true christians. That is, they take their "holy book" at face value. I am glad they spew their hatred. It helps people understand what really is in their holy book.
Second, thank god (or whatever) for our constitution. Putting up with idiots like the Phelps is part of the price we pay to keep from getting tried and executed as heretics.
I went back to the YouTube site and watched the same women being interviewed by Hannity and Colmes. They did let her answer and about all she could say is that "You are sinning against God your creator." No specifics given, just alluded that the Bible had to be followed to the letter. So my question would be if that is the case, why are they wearing modern clothing, driving automobiles, or using any modern convenience at all. Surely, since these things are not in the BuyBull, they are against God and therefore is a sin to use them. Fundie retards. I know nothing we say will ever have an effect on them, but it sure feels better just to blow of some steam about these inbred, backward, hateful, bigoted, shit-for-brains assholes. Amen and pass the whiskey.
gregfl One, The Phelps and their disquisting ilk really are true christians. That is, they take their "holy book" at face value. I am glad they spew their hatred. It helps people understand what really is in their holy book. Please lets not start calling these people true Christians thats a slap in the face to millions of people who died sharing the gospel of peace not hate like these people preach. Read Galatians 1:6-9 and then 1 John 4:7-11 reading those and comparing them to scripture you actually see them for who they are. They say they know God but they don't because God is love and if they knew him they would be preaching about homosexuality as sin that those who are gay should turn away from it. But instead they give up hope on them and are spreading this gospel of hate, they forget that Christ also forgave them. But then again this proves to me why we are close to the end 2 Timothy 3:1-5 and I only expect it to get worse.
Ah, yes, the botox'd nut who is so crazy that even Faux News whackos speak out against her. Shirley is a true Christian, and proper Biblical Christianity doesn't look too great. If she could, she'd be committing genocide in God's name. She said she had 8 sons, but said nothing about daughters; maybe she sold them all into slavery. After all, the Wholly Babble says that's OK!
Iwillnotstumble, assuming you're not a troll, you should read Exodus 12:29 where God kills babies, Exodus 21:20-21 which says that you can own slaves and beat them up as long as they don't die quickly, and 1 Samuel 15:3, where God orders genocide. That's just a small sample of the nastiness that "moderate" Christians like to pretend isn't there.

Oh, my goodness. In all this last year, in which I have watched no TV (except DVDs), I have managed to do quite well without it -- but THIS is amazingly tempting!

IWILLNOTSTUMBLE ralphed the following onto my shirt..."Please lets not start calling these people true Christians thats a slap in the face to millions of people who died sharing the gospel of peace not hate like these people preach."
You need to read your bible cover to cover. Then get back to me.
The Phelphs are practicing christianity in a much more bible oriented way than you apparently are. You are playing pick and choose with your holy book. Tsk tsk.
Oh yeah, don't quote scripture to me, or I will be forced to do the same...like this....
2 Kings 2:23-24:
"And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head. And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them"
Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NIV
If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay the girl's father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives."
(Exodus 21:20-21)
When a man strikes his slave, male or female, with a rod and the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. But if the slave survives a day or two, he is not to be punished; for the slave is his money."
There is your "loving christianity", with a legacy of killing children and supporting slavery and rape.
Again, read your book.
let's remember that this is a forum to mock fundies, not ALL christians. I'm not a Christian, but some of the hate spewed by posters in this forum, particularly in this thread approaches the same ignorance that fundies do.
the fundies we mock tend to lump everyone they hate into one generalized group, let's not do the same.
also, yea, the phelps lady and the fox reporter are both nutcases. it's like watching to natural disasters fighting.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
