Don't trip girl, most radical church protest groups just embarass themselves and most people don't take them seriously.
And BTW:
"Shirley Phelps-Roper, the attorney for the Westboro Baptist Church, explained that Rogers, as a Presbyterian minister with a television program, had a responsibility to comment on the issue. By not doing so, she explained that he was helping to perpetuate homosexuality, which the group says falls into the category of "whoremongery and adultery, which will damn the soul forever in hell." She added that the support some Americans have given to homosexuals has been the reason behind horrible tragedies including the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the crash of the NASA shuttle Colombia, and the nightclub fire in Rhode Island."
How they got those concepts from a wholesome show like Mr. Rogers neighborhood is beyond me.
For F*ck's sake, stop analyzing childrens programming for things that might corrupt your kids. And if you think that they are corrupting your kids, stop going on crusades and just don't let your kids watch it!
I'd rather my child watch Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, hell, I'd rather my future child watch the frickin Teletubbies than shows like Hot or Not, or Married By America. Which poses the question: if you don't want your child learning good life lessons from Fred Rogers, you'd rather him/her learn that in order to be accepted in America you have to physically live up to the standards of three never-weres?
