Fred Phelps, the 84-year-old driving force behind the Westboro Baptist Church, is reportedly in hospice care and "on the edge of death" in Kansas, his estranged son says in a Facebook post. Nate Phelps also claims that the elder Phelps was ex-communicated by his own church last year. "Terribly ironic that his devotion to his god ends this way," wrote the younger Phelps, who left the church in 1980. "Destroyed by the monster he made."
LGBT people should give his funeral the dignity and respect that he so vehemently denied them just to show his followers who the real righteous ones are. It would be a fitting way to discount his entire life and he would only be remembered for his funeral; a few hours of a given day.
Phelps better hope that his God is more compassionate and loving than Phelps was during his life here on Earth or eternity is going to be a very hot and uncomfortable place for him.

My thoughts exactly. It is really hard not to take glee at this news.

Decomposition and becoming worm food is a hot and uncomfortable place? Ummm...he'll be dead! He won't feel anything.

His family needs to insure a strong A/C unit is buried with him.
I wonder if someone will carry on the family tradition.
There are families who take an idea to the extreme and indoctrinate their offspring into it, those who have no choice. Usually thinking they are the ONLY ones who have it right. I'm always hopeful that these cycles can be broken with the death of the one who starts it all but I don't know..
