Westboro Baptist Church says it will protest at North Bergen (NY) soldier's funeral

[icymist]

The Westboro Baptist Church, which goes around the country spreading its own brand of hate religion, announced in a news release this afternoon that a contingent will demonstrate at the funeral of Sgt. Marcos A. Gorra of North Bergen tomorrow in West New York.

In the past the church group has carried signs celebrating the deaths of soldiers. The group cites the United States' "don't-ask, don't-tell" policy for its hatred. The group is wholly anti-gay and believes that gays should not serve in the military.

In its news release, the WBC says "military funerals have become pagan orgies of idolatrous blasphemy, where they pray to the dunghill gods of Sodom and play taps to a fallen fool."

7. That these idiots aren't repeatedly struck by lightning makes me doubt the existence of any god.

For if God exists, surely He/She/It must salivate at the prospect of smiting them....
