Fred Phelps' "Open Letter to Cindy Sheehan," a new low for Westboro
Cindy Sheehan has an answer

8/20/05 13:26:10

http://dcmediagirl.com/index.php?entry=entry20050820-132610

Batshit insane bigot, hater and wife/child abuser, the "Reverend" Fred Phelps, helpfully fills Cindy Sheehan in on why her son died in Iraq:

Why did your son die in Iraq? Because you raised him for the devil and Hell. You hated him. You taught him "It’s OK to be gay," and other God-rejecting lies, that brought the wrath of God Down upon this evil nation.

Why did your son die in Iraq? Because God hates America and has purposed to destroy her. They turned America over to fags; they’re coming home in body bags.

Please call the Westboro Baptist "Church" at (785) 273-0325 and let them know what you think of this style of "ministry".

1. What the fuck is he rambling about?
What an absolute nutcase. I hope the day he dies people picket his funeral. God, if I had a dog and lived near his grave I'd have it go take a shit on it.

11. Heads up for those who don't know:
The nutjob express:

Please be sure to read the FAQ before you send mail. If your question is already answered in the FAQ, you probably won't receive a personal response.
Any messages containing obscene, pejorative or hostile language will not be personally responded to.
Any messages containing threats of physical violence (including death) will be immediately reported to the FBI and your ISP. Yes, the FBI does take email threats seriously, and yes, they will find you and come to your house and ask you about it.
If your only purpose is to rant and rave, don't waste your time. We've already seen it.
Mailbombs are automatically detected and deleted, and a message documenting your mailbomb will be sent to the owner of the originating IP address. Likewise, fake mail will be reported to the owner of the originating IP address.
If you continue to send harrassing email, you will be asked one time to stop, and any subsequent messages will be automatically forwarded to your ISP.
To repeat, please be sure to read the FAQ before you send mail. If your question is already answered in the FAQ, it most likely will not be responded to. 99 emails out of 100 are not personally responded to because the author thinks he/she is asking an original question (or making an original comment), when in reality, everyone else is saying the same thing. That's the purpose of having a FAQ - so we don't have to answer the same questions over and over and over. For example, if you say "God loves everyone," the answer is: "I hated Esau. Malachi 1:3. Also, see Leviticus 20:23, 26:30; Deuteronomy 32:19; Psalm 5:5-6, 10:3, 11:5, 53:5, 73:20, 78:59, 106:40; Proverbs 6:16-19, 8:13, 22:14; Lamentations 2:6; Romans 9:13."

7. Open Letter to Phelps "read your bible and or enlist."
God himself never said anything about being gay. It's not in the ten commeandments. And isn't funny that all the "Pro life" people are so keen on blowing up "post" embryo's. Phelps you sick sick mother fracker go on and enlist. In fact take your entire maggot infested dieseased ridden, cousin marryin, dumpster diving, toby keith listening inbreeds and fight in this damn war if it's so great.

8. Phelps: "Why did Got let the war in Iraq?"
It's so ugly infested vermin idiots like you could go and enlist in the war, Phelps. That's why God let them throw themselves into Iraq. Take your pathetic heathen ass over to the country and die there, if you believe everything is evil and gay. Baghdad beckons you, pack up and ship out. You're outta here.

10. Republicans love Phelps, too
Phelps is a Democrat.

Strange but true.

He was very involved in the Civil Rights movement, but he lost his mind sometime during the 1960s.

He's just plain bat-shit crazy now.

18. Bad things happen to people because God hates them?
Then God really must've hated Job (He really had to do something wrong for God use him in a bet with Satan, right?), Joseph (That fabulous coat of his must've been why God made him and later his descendants slaves), and most of all Jesus. I bet he did a bunch of sinning in his teens and twenties which would explain why they weren't mentioned in the Bible and why God needed to show him "tough love" by letting him die on the cross..

26. Priests like that are why I haven't been to church in almost 10yrs.
I had already started to drift away from the church and only made my Confirmation because my mom emotionally blackmailed my brother and I. Soon after it I was at a mass and a priest gave his homily speech about a plane crash that happened that week. A plane bound for Paris exploded off the coast of New York. Over 200 people died and what did the priest want to talk about? He didn't want us to pray for the dead or their grieving families. He didn't want us to make donations to help them out? He wanted to let us know that there were unmarried couples traveling together and let us know what God does to people who fornicate. Quite a few heads turned when I said I don't have to listen to this garbage and walked out.

23. His hate filled daughter works for the Kansas State Corrections office
Edited on Sun Aug-21-05 07:56 AM by OneTwentyoNine
That little jewell came up a few weeks ago when it was learned that Margie Phelps has a position on the parole board that directly effects who gets out,who stays in. What do you think the chances are for a gay inmate seeking parole getting a fair and impartial review?


The real tragedy of Fred Phelps and his psycho followers

27. This guy needs to be tied to Christian Right..Falwell, Robertson, Dobson,
Anytime you refer to Christian Right, throw out Phelps as an example and tie him to Falwell and Robertson and Dobson and Baur and Reed as well. They are all peas in a pod. Don't suggest that he stands alone.
