Definitely some people that need to read some Christopher Hitchens. Stupidity + Religion = Hate.

Stupidity + Religion = Hate.

Unfortunately,you can say that again

He should be brought up on hate crimes.

Watched that documentary during a stop over in anchorage...it was so much I didn't get any sleep

It was interesting to hear from a few of the kids who grew up and realized it was all a load of bull...somewhat reassuring. But most of it was just

they are scary but you know what i question god every now and then and i ask him if i was gay would he forgive me when i die and he tells me yes im 99 percent sure on that so they can fuck off.

I saw this in a documentary on HBO or Showtime a few months back...

I am at a loss for words, basically...

...And the way they so-nonchalantly say "fags", like it's a different species... Normally "fag" doesn't bother me, but I mean... That kid's tone of voice was just so blank... It wasn't even angry, it was just like a dumb kid regurgitating what he's been told, which is kind of disheartening.

Fucking brainwashed...

Ugh... And then half of them don't even know why... They're, like, stumbling to recall and recite what they were TOLD to think... It makes me hate people >:(

The thing to remember about Phelps and his crew it that they are starved for attention. They'll do anything for attention. The more attention they get, the more they win.

The other thing is that they are all lawyers. They break no laws. They try to bait people into violence. They then sue them and build up their coffers. They commit no crimes.

They are the poster children for tolerance. They illustrate how ugly and twisted intolerance can be. Most people couldn't identify with these people who protest at people's funerals. Their presence is a clear object lesson.

Westboro Baptist is sickening but isn't like 80% of the church related to Fred Phelps? So at least it attests more to the power of brain washing than to any notion that he is making any viable arguments.

The next generation? Inbred retarded bigots.

I resisted watching this for a while.
Sad.
Sad.
Sad and disgusting.
I'm never leaving San Francisco!
Hey Devi. Are you positive you want to leave the West Coast for Texas?

[grim]

devi coming to texas? please don't devi, for this is a dark and evil place that i will someday soon escape... they'res more baptist bigotry practiced here than any other state ive ever lived in.

baptists are the only group of people i feel that deserve to suffer the same horrid holocausts that my early family had to suffer.

And this is one of the many reasons why having faith in humanity as a whole is so hard for me.
