God Hates Westboro Baptist Church

Gonzo Picketer for So-Called “Westboro Baptist Church”

The “Westboro Baptist Church” is no more a church than I am the Pope of Islam. They are a right-wing group that delights in fomenting outrage by picketing events where the vast majority of people attending are against their believes. That doesn’t bother the folks at WBC, who say on their website: “0 – nanoseconds of sleep that WBC members lose over your opinions and feeeeellllliiiiiings.” Also on the same page is a counter of the number of souls God has cast into hell since the web page was loaded. (Yeah, like they know!)

At a time when so much that is called political discourse is actually nothing but grandstanding in front of the media, WBC holds down a particularly odious niche. After all, their website is called GodHatesFags.Com. Whenever some disaster occurs, you can count on these hucksters to tell us all that we had it coming because of our tolerance of gays or something else these misguided white people hate or feel threatened by.

I do not think that WBC will be around for much longer: How much further can they go without bringing peoples’ wrath down on their heads or violating the law in some gross way?

So enjoy them while you can.

  1. It is hard to identify with any organized religion as it is hard to imagine what the God/dessence has to do with any organized religion, since I imagine the god energy being busy manifesting life and the universe, and taking care of other big jobs that don’t involve mindless hate. Even destruction of the universe doesn’t involve incredibly petty, twisted, human hatred. Religion, when associated with these hate groups or with dictatorships and empire are systems of control and repression, especially of women, but, yeah, everybody else they don’t like as well…hate group, that’s a useful couple of words.
