Why does his church always focus on ONE passage in the Bible, when there are so many more IMPORTANT passages in it? :)

1. Everyone who despises Fred Phelps--well, that's everyone--should read this
http://www.blank.org/addict/orig.addict.html

It's an expose on the Phelps family. Explains everything.

18. I shut down everything and read it last night...
It took me about five hours. WELL worth the time I spent reading it.

Where I used to hate his kids, now I pity them. Sad that someone can ruin the lives of his 13 children and go unpunished. He's an evil man.

19. I've never been able to make it through the whole document.
The child abuse portion alone makes me physically ill. He's an evil, evil man.

20. Yes, and the suicide of the son's fiancee.
There's a special place in the hell that he believes in for him.

22. I'm only 20% done.. this is disturbing
The violence toward the children, mother, cats. I am a Christian but what they claim as Christianity is not recognizable to me. Their religion is a weapon to beat others with emotionally, matching the physical abuse.

9. I think I'll stay away from that site!
That kind of blasphemy pisses me off!

Thanks though, at least I know who he is now!

24. it will piss you off, but
you can't fully appreciate how vile he is until you see his stuff first hand. It will both sicken you and make you furious.

5. Read Post No. 1
Edited on Sun Jan-02-05 06:32 PM by Maddy McCall
And here is a photo of the Phelps clan. He's a self-professed Baptist minister from Topeka, KS who tours the US with his family (who are his church) and protests anything in his mind that is connected with homosexuality.

He's a child abuser who beat his own children and wife with axe handles whenever the mood struck him. His clan are obviously suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.

Here's a photo of them protesting the DNC.



They are praying that a tsunami hits the US. They are nutcases. Read the link I posted in my first response to this thread.

7. Thanks Maddy
I am not too sure I want to see the website, I'm feeling a bit frisky today and that site might exacerbate my mood.

10. The link I posted is an expose' done by a journalist who spoke...
to Phelps and to his children who have left his "church." It is very revealing about the psyche of this person...he's obviously a sociopathic.

17. He needs to be locked away ... far away.
I've seen him in action here in Michigan. He's evil through and through

3. I thought it was satire
honestly, when I first heard of God Hates Fags (b.t.w., I take it we all realise that under any religious code imaginable the blasphemy contained in that title is far worse than sleeping with another man) I assumed that it was a really close to the bone satire.

That guy serious screwed in the head - and that's the charitable version.

6. This jackass has an online forum on my local paper's site
and has almost single-handedly ruined our diverse, peaceful community with his nonsense. He made the front page when he picketed one of our several all-inclusive churches with his infamous "God Hates Fags" sign. The intolerant of our town ate it up by the gallon and the bumper sticker slated for all the city vehicles was cancelled due to its RAINBOW COLORS. Sick.

We have a HUGE gay population, so we're constantly a target. Probably why B&%* made sure to pay us a visit before the election.

8. Yes, if our government had any sense they would be keeping an eye on him
Fred Phelps is fairly likely to go completely around the bend and launch some kind of violent attack on U.S. citizens. Of course, I imagine that the chimp administration simply hands him money and lets him do his thing.

12. Yes, "our government" is now permanently in the hands of
scum like this -- if we don't do something about getting back the vote.

13. A logical counterargument
It seems to me that all the laws in the Torah that he bases this off is for the JEWISH people. Not Gentiles, so I'm safe eating however much shrimp I want... I don't like shrimp though, so screw it. :crazy:

14. And the irony is that he is friendly with the Christian Identity Movement.
Go figure. :shrug:

21. The whole point of their lives is to hate people.
That's what they do. They're sick, sick people. So they attach themselves to that one passage as a justification for their hate.

23. Have you seen the 2nd episode (1st season) of The Awful Truth ?
Phelps is Michael Moore's target during the second part (or 1st) of the show.
