Wonder if her church is still standing after that show??

Anyone have any views on this woman's beliefs??? Anyone actually agree with her? sad.gif
rhyknow
There have been a lot of threads on this subject... let's just say she's not too popular... The thing that disgusts me the most is that they get KIDS to do this???

If anyone is interested, there are some interviews with other members of her congregation...

Try typing in "Fred Phelps" on youtube and see what you get

The Phelps gang are living examples of the folly of religious dogma. But, as they say, all good things must come to an end; eventually. devil.gif

That woman is disgusting and I don't see how she can claim to be a Christian, since she doesn't seem to have read the Gospels. If she had she would know that Jesus only hated the sanctimonious, religious bigots of His day who were stuck on the Law instead of on seeking Him.

I see this woman being consumed by the cancer of her hate, just like her father is now. Just look at the man for the evidence that one is what they think of the world they live in, that out numbers them by millions to one. Hence, mentalities like these seek support to bolster their resolve they are not alone.

What disgusts me is that, while I can ignore them or counter their activist protests at soldier funerals, with banners of peace, these creatures influence the children of their congregation to become the next generation to carry on the legacy of intolerance and faith in an evil god. And what furthers their campaign are posts like this, with all due respect to the OP, because while we shake our heads and say; how can anyone think like that!? It promotes their platform of bigotry, because it gets our attention and causes us to think toward them and their passion to destroy us. no.gif

Dear Fred,
When you die, you inbred hatemonger, you're going to be so surprised. And god knows...you earned it! devil.gif

If its typical Christian love then you should have at least one Christian here who agrees with her. I haven’t noticed any here, have you?

I posted this in a thread I did about this.....church:

Patriot Guard Riders WEB SHOTS

Why Do We Ride?

Why do we do this, you ask?
Why bother to stand out in wind and rain for someone unknown?
Why do we ride through torrents chilled to the bone?
The answer is simple: “Because, Never Again!”

Never again will they return home in shame,
Never again will wearing their uniform cause them pain.
Never again will we forget why they serve.
No, Never Again.

But still I hear you say “Why does it matter to you?”
“They aren’t your friends, your brothers, your sisters, your father, your mother.”
War is a sad time for many; it is sad but true.
So, why do you gather in the gap between their families and their foes?
The answer is simple: “Because, Never Again!”

Never again will grieving parents, families and friends alone bear mourning’s toil.
Never again will hard-won freedom of speech be used to debase and destroy.
Never again will their sacrifice be dishonored upon their home soil.
No, Never Again.

Why do we gather, why do we ride?
Why travel this country far and wide?
We remember our grandfathers, fathers, brothers and others yet to come.
We stand proud through tears reflecting their courage and pride.
Because, Never Again.

That’s why we ride.

hey dude, I'm not trying to spread HATE by any means; I just like to educate folks. I also find it funny that the american republican party is always aligning themselves with the religious right, ie Pat Robertson and James Dobson, but they won't go near Phelps.

That link gets removed every time it is posted.

To let it remain is free publicity for these idiots....the last thing most people here want to give them.

They are a fringe group not unlike the KKK and do not represent the Christian majority.
Promoting their ideals of hate is not the intent of UM.

Iappreciate your position, but I don't consider it promoting their ideals:I believe it's more akin to exposing them for the lunatics that they are. anyway, for those interested, Wikipedia offers a pretty good primer on Fred Phelps, and his history of madness and abuse. p.s. it's incredible that this man was once a civil rights attorney...

To the contrary. Her campaign espouses no such thing, nor do the 98% population of family members that comprise her fathers church.

In truth, they do not know what love is. They campaign to promote a god ideal that hates, first and foremost. They dedicate themselves to worship that being they imagine compells their actions, as they are told is to be translated through the bibles scriptures by Fred P. , and as such aspire to the glory they believe awaits their savage terrorism exacted against the dead and the living. (They protest funerals across the country. Gaining funds to continue this road trip , by inciting the local communities to violence so they can sue for damages. )

And while these parishioners brandish signs in the face of mourners, praising god for killing us, they set an excellent example in their own right. They show those of us that can look beyond the top of the "God hates fags" signs that are raised aloft and usually cover their faces, how easily words are translated to affect destruction upon a people.

Firstly it destroys the one that harbours the words inside themselves. In that mind that stores all the data for what it means to live in this world, and not alone. And given they are so outnumbered, (at least 6.5 billion souls), they are compelled to hold to their idea's even more, as they go forth and live their life, judging everyone they see by that criteria of hate. That demon of many tongues, that speaks to them continuously of fear and assault. And how they survive themselves in the midst of this mass global community is to create a god in their own image. One that tells them they are special above all others, and that all else is worthy of a poster to damn them in print!

So the Phelps crew purchases markers and a ton of former tree's, and draw and write of themselves, for all to read, as they later hold those posters aloft and in so doing, in the midst of their screams and jeers toward anyone that will listen, stand as an example of what it looks like when someone turns on themselves and call's it god. How it sounds when that soul screams it's pain of separation from all others, because it doesn't think it's worthy of love. How a word, creates a spirit, that destroys flesh voluntarily.

And that, for all it may piss us off as we witness they're attending out town, to broadcast their separatist disease, (They were here just a few months ago.) shows us that while god is unseen and presumed to exist within all things, the spirit inside of us is what creates this world, by our own hand, through the translation.

So while the Phelps may sicken the decent among us, what drives them forward is that same energy that causes people to blow themselves up in a crowd. To execute doctors, drown babies, murder wives, invade countries, burn books, desecrate temples, paint swastikas on holy shrines, sledgehammer gravestones, baseball bat gays, etc...

Which is to say, the Phelps do serve a purpose. They lend an example of what it means to hate oneself and see it as god. They scream to us; don't allow yourself to become like this. And we are, when we see someone different than us and call them a name for being so. When we say their style of worship , that which satisfies and brings peace to a personal heart, is wrong in our eyes. As we assault with copy & paste, in that effort to change someones mind about the invisible that none of us truly know in any other way, save to believe.

Fred Phelps and his hateful spawn are an example of what not to allow ourselves to become.



And just as an aside, Charlie Mike:
