No one has a monopoly on that name, and it would not be illegal to use it).
  • They DO protest such actions whenever they can.
  • They hate everything these fake Baptist stand for.
  • They love our country and support the soldiers.
  • They think these people are complete idiots with an agenda that will bore a hole right through into hell.
  • They believe these people will not stand in judgment but will fall down before Almighty G-d in what will apparently be their first experience of silence.

These people should not be given any new-space but their upcoming activities should continue to be distributed to the motorcycle gangs that despice them and to all people who will denounce them. It is just like the silly little church that wants to burn the qur'an -- ignore them, don't give them news space, and they will eventually slink away. They are narcissistic mind-poisoning child-abusers and bullies.
Well, if you know any bikers in the Colorado Springs area tell them that's where those fools are. Today and tomorrow.

If that isn't bad enough, the funeral they plan on disrupting is for an Army chaplain.

I don't think they could sink any lower.

I don't know any groups personally, Pamela, but watch for them -- they'll be there. If you don't see them, ask.

I don't know you, Pamela, and I don't wish to be obnoxious to you if you are not one who believes in prayer, but I will pray for you as you go through this today and tomorrow. I ask for shalom at the funeral site; I ask that everyone there is protected from westboro; I ask that the families, especially, are protected from all who wish them harm and all who criticize their loved ones who gave their lives; I ask that Colorado Springs will recognize the truth about this hero.

G-d bless you, Pamela. Most here completely support you and Colorado Springs and are holding you, specifically, up in their thoughts and prayers.

Yup, the bikers show up at these "rallies" and rev their Harley engines over the chanting and singing "church" members. The cops just stand around nearby laughing at the whole scene.

I never cared much for hard-core bikers 'till I heard about this.

You`re right op, their actions are disgraceful. From the way I see it is they are hiding under a Christian name but they are not Christians themselves. A lot of people use the name "Christian" that does not truly represent Christ at all.

There's a video on youtube where the Phelps woman acknowledges giving birth to an illegitimate child.

You and your actions sicken me! How can you call yourselves Christians and do the things that you do? What gives you the right to violate a family's grief by protesting at funerals for our military?

These men and women died to keep our country free and to keep YOU free and this is how you honor them?

In my opinion you are nothing more than a pathetic group of cowards.

Perhaps when one of your members passes away we should walk around your funeral carrying signs saying "thank God for dead Baptist protesters".

I know that your behavior is not the status quo for all Baptists so if I have offended any true Christians ,please accept my apologies.
Take some meds, Pam. Find a therapist

By the way, I'm tempted to dial my special mod hotline.

If you're Antlered Chamataka, press 1. Others, press 2.

This thread propagates hatred against the poor Baptists

At least they are honest about their scorn. I am sick of those passive-aggressive Christians i.e., the majority who claim that they are tolerant of sinners but hate the sin. Then they go out and sin behind closed doors and in secrecy.
