Fred Phelps offends me deeply with his disgusting immature worldview and his hate filled rhetoric. He gives all Christians a bad name, and makes a mockery of God, in my opinion. His sycophants are dangerous and mentally disturbed. Or maybe just attention starved. I don’t know.
What I do know is that Fred Phelps often tempts me with his offensive actions. He tempts me to punch him in the face. Yet unlike poorly educated ignorant people who also believe that God cannot defend himself and must rely on puny humans to speak for Him, I do not give in to my angry desires by booking a plane ticket to the next place Fred Phelps will protest so I can punch him in the face. Nor do I burn down random Baptist churches just because Fred Phelps perverts the word Baptist by calling himself one. I certainly don’t call for cutting off the heads of all his followers.
I am an American soldier, and I defend the freedom of Fred Phelps and his idiots to protest in a public space at my funeral if I am blown up by an IED or mortar. I believe God will deal with Fred Phelps if He wants to, and that unless Fred Phelps trespasses on my property, I don’t have any legal right to punch him in the face, despite how offensive he is to my personal belief system.
I believe that every time the Fred Phelps’ of the world try and spread their virulent brand of tard jelly, God will send American bikers to drown them out. Or maybe that’s just us humans working out the problems amongst ourselves and maybe that is the way things are intended to be. While we’re waiting for Judgement Day, if anyone can arrange a pay per view fight between Fred Phelps and Osama Bin Laden I think you could turn a profit. I’d buy a ticket.

Has anyone invented a Dumbometer? It might be interesting to get the results from testing Fred Phelps. And after measuring Fred Phelps, it could be useful to get the results from testing the entire Bush Cabinet, including director of Department of Homeland Security,Michael Chertov, US Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez and the other highly educated leaders and bureaucrats who have OK’ed the takeover of 8 of the most important and strategic U.S. ports by a Taliban-friendly Arab state, namely the United Arab Emirates. I would like to see the Dumbometer test score results of Fred Phelps and also the test score results for the official Beltway mental capacities that approved this UAE deal. Maybe some sort of comparison, especially between Fred Phelps and our highly educated homeland security and free trade honchos. I think that might be interesting. Do you?

From Vietnam to Iraq, now it can be blogged (pending CENTCOM bureaucracy)
Trevor. I agree with you.. but I think I would not punch him.. might land me in jail.
But I noticed in the article that the group actually did a protest towards Coalminers in West Virginia. So this group is grouping anyone in death to the Clinton Era Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Policy for the military. This it seems to include the Civilian Workforce.
Freedom of Religion is very important in this country. But when Freedom of Speech and Religion is used in a protest of this countries policies at a indivual’s funneral in front of family members, then I applaud any state legislature attempt at making laws to curb that under the 10th Ammendment.
Fred Phelps and his “congregation” is mis-interpeting the book of Ephesians in my opinion… Maybe a non relgious member of the biker group will get made enough and kick their “ass” to stop it.
Hi Trevor! I think anyone whould feel justified in punching Phelps in the face…but tha’s just me;)
