do these fools picket every actor who has played a GLBT role?

They picket any high-profile funeral. They picketed one here of 5 family members (mother and 4 children including an 8-week old baby) killed in a car accident.

it's just so revolting

The real question is though, while they're picketing Ledger's funeral, will they also picket Jake Gyllenhaal's...

I'm hoping they'll have all passed into irrelevant history and been forgotten by the time Jake kicks it.

The Westboro Baptist Church will picket Ledger's funeral

Have they tried to picket such a high-profile person's funeral yet? No disrespect meant to military members AT ALL, but Heath Fucking Ledger is pretty high profile. I just can't imagine that, even if there is going to be a service in the US, those fuckstains would be allowed anywhere near it.

Won't his funeral be in Australia? Are they going to fly down there for it?

This is what I was wondering. Can they all be on the same plane? And can it crash safely over the ocean so they are floating around getting eaten by sharks? Or possibly end up in field of those nasty jellyfish billytea has mentioned are in Australia? Or both?

Does God hate a lot? I mean, in his own words did he say he hated people?

I think he only hates Fred Phelps.

No, dang it, I do truly believe that God even loves that waste of DNA, and that burns me up. Which is why I'm not God. (I don't think. Wait. t checks Nope. Not God.)

Which is why I'm not God. (I don't think. Wait. <checks> Nope. Not God.)

What exactly did you check?

The thing-a-ma-whatsit. You know.

Well, like most of the reactionary buttholes, they take their Bible quotes so unbelievably out of context that it's not even relevant any more.

Leviticus 18:22 is, I suppose, condemning homosexuality, but the whole point of Jesus showing up was to give people a new set of laws, and to tell them not to worry about Leviticus so much.

But (having just reread it) that quote from Ephesians they use on their flier? It's taken completely out of context. Nothing in that chapter of Ephesians has anything at all to do with condemning homosexuality. In fact, Ephesians 5 is the same place that the "Be subject to one another" quote comes from. That whole chapter of Ephesians is about being loving and good to one another. Frankly, this behavior of picketing funerals and hating people is so anti-Ephesians it's not even funny.

Actually, they don't even quote Ephesians 5:6 correctly. On the flier, they only quote "For it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience," but they leave off the first part of the passage! Ephesians 5:6 in its entirety reads: "Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience."

These people are incapable of correctly understanding their Bible.

Have they tried to picket such a high-profile person's funeral yet?

They have picketed funerals before and got international press. They've done some huge ones.

Personally, I kind lost interest in organized religion when I saw the bit about stoning naughty children to death. Which is a few pages after the 'hate-fags' thing.

Wonder if the Hell's Angels will show up to cordon the protesters off from the mourners, as they've done with military funerals.
