But there is a nutjob fundamentalist preacher named Fred Phelps that is sooooooooooo homophobic that his rants and sermons deal with the subject of homosexuals almost exclusively.

Phelps seems to believe that the Tsunami was "God's way" of punishing the Swedes vacationing in SE Asia for Sweden's acceptance of homosexuality... Phelps also believes that every member of the US military killed in Iraq is also God's punishment, that the US government tried to bomb his church, that the huricane was God's punishment on NO for America's acceptance of homosexuality, that Pope John Paul II was the anti-Christ, that Queen Elizabeth II is a lesbian, etc.
I think it is a GOOD thing that I have never heard of this guy. Apparently his infamy isn't too big. I figure anytime these wackos DON'T get any publicity, it is a good thing.

I find it amazing that anyone who claims to be a "man of God" can be SO prejudiced and judgemental of his fellow man. So sad.

I suppose our family will be in trouble because we made our donation for Katrina victims through a local gay and lesbian origanization.

Why? Because they were matching donations dollar for dollar up to $250.

That way our $250 became $500.

I hope the fundamentalist church can find it in its heart to forgive us.

I used to hear that every Sunday when I was young for everything from smoking to drinking to dancing to going to movies on Sunday.

It was enough to scare a little kid right out of the church.

Which has nothing to do with the situation at hand.

Mrs. DA just found the matching offer in the newspaper and it made a lot of sense to us.
