Just a few thoughts:

Maybe we should start picketing this church every Sunday and let people know this is where the devil lives and he is trying to fool you into thinking these people have anything to do with God.
I have a feeling that WBC would welcome that. It would simply be more free media exposure for them to spout their views.

Well, why didn't "god" prevent the shooting?
Is God honour bound to step in to fix all of man's problems?

No, they are Christians.....They are a Baptist Church.
They have no affiliation with the Baptists, they are an independent organisation. Strange as it may sound, but if you really wanted to you could probably open a Baptist Church of Satanism. Whether they are "Christian" or not is a matter for debate. Some theories suggest that Fred Phelps (Founder of WBC) started the church in order to get back at the legal system that cut him loose (he was a lawyer who was disbarred). If that be the case, then he's not religious at all, just taking an act to push free speech and piss off the legal authorities with his insane ramblings.
