Thursday morning, Phelps responded to widespread criticism of her using the iPhone to Tweet the messages, saying that the phone was created by God–not Jobs–for that purpose.

:lol: What a nutcase.

"Westboro will picket his funeral. He had a huge platform; gave God no glory and taught sin," wrote Margie Phelps, daughter of the church's founder.

I won't deny that he never talked about God (wasn't really his place given his platform), but when did he ever teach sin?

Unless of course She's just lying again.

I hope they all get cancer from a radon leak and slowly die, then one at a time they can picket their own funerals saying God is punishing them because their lack of faith.

I wish we could just start calling them the Westboro Cult. Seriously. These guys give a bad name to Baptist folks, and churches in general. "Thursday morning,Phelps responded to widespread criticism of her using the iPhone to Tweet the messages, saying that the phone was created by God–not Jobs–for that purpose." -_-

Honestly, I've seen a video examining claims like this before, and biblically speaking, these people are definitely pure Christians. Just that unlike modern Christians, who ignore all that horrible stuff in the OT, they embrace it.

The OT is a mess, and the God character presented in it a bloody tyrant. Most modern Christians tend to ignore the horrible stuff he said and did. WBC does not. Most normal people know that killing people for being gay (as Yahweh does in the OT) is abhorrent, immoral, and just flat out evil. So rather than defend it, they ignore it. (it's highly uncomfortable for them to come to terms with the actions of God in the OT, he's just not a defensible character anymore) The WBC doesn't ignore it, they hate gay people because God commanded them to do so, and if they could get away with it, I have no doubt they would just go around rounding them up and slaughtering them en masse.

Funny that the son of God walked with whores/taxmen and all sorts of people. People that don''t follow christ need to take the "christian" out of their name.Stop raping his name.

Christ was better than his supposed dad, if indeed historical Jesus even existed, however, not by much. The Jesus character in the NT fully embraces everything Yahweh ever did, and calls it holy and just, which is just not correct at all. Both Christ and Yahweh are far too human to be God.

So basically, now they're not just picketing people who were gay or soldiers or went against their skewed beliefs, they're protesting everyone who isn't them and who isn't obsessed with serving god? I would travel SO far to picket their funerals. They'd deserve to hurt the way they make other people hurt.

Do not acknowledge the WBC, do not make eye contact. Failure to comply will result in a fed and happy WBC.

.....How many times does this type of **** have to be debunk? You can explain millions of time about the ot and yet they keep insisting that they should follow the ot word by word. It's one thing to show disbleive in the bible. It's another to spread information that isn't even to be held amongs the christains.

It's amazing that atheists like this user think they know the bible more than christians.

I just going to label this a PRATT and nothing more. I not going to debunk this. Not worth my time.
