WBC to picket the funeral of Rev. Jerry Falwell
WBC to picket the funeral of Rev. Jerry Falwell - at Thomas Road Baptist Church, Lynchburg, Virginia.

<snip>

1. Falwell was a true Calvinistic Baptist when he was a young preacher in Springfield, Missouri; and sold his soul to Free-Willism (Arminianism) for lucre.

2. Falwell bitterly and viciously attacked WBC because of WBC's faithful Bible preaching - thereby committing the unpardonable sin - otherwise known as the sin gainst the Holy Ghost.

3. Falwell warmly praised Christ-rejecting Jews, pedophile-condoning Catholics, money-grubbing compromisers, practicing fags like Mel White, and backsliders like Billy Graham and Robert Schuler, Etc. All for lucre - making him guilty of their sins.

<snip>

1. "We're more kristofascist than you are, neener, neener." - WBC
"So we are here to dance on the grave of the dead, to show how much more kristofascist we are. Neener, neener, neener." - WBC

2. The Moral Majority and WBC were made for each other.
Falwell sold his soul to "Arminianism for lucre" - priceless.

5. can someone explain the phrase
"split Hell wide open" for me? I have been to some really scary fire and brimstone churches in my time but am not familiar with this one...was it because he was rather corpulent? I would think not because they used the same phrase when Princess Diana died...

6. Come one. Come all. Conservatives form a circle.
Everybody, get in your places now. Circle formed? Check. Ready? Aim. Fire.

:rofl:

Divide and conquer. Let them devour each other two by two. :evilgrin:

7. I wonder what Falwell's people are going to do about it?
Will they allow Phelps to scream his hatred or try to mute it in some way?

If they successfully mute him, we can take tips on what to do the next time WBC pickets a gay or military funeral.

If they are unsuccessful, and Phelps sues, he gets Falwell's money, not the money of gays or military families.

8. kind of funny in a sick way. At least maybe my Liberty U. grad co-worker
will understand who the Westboro B.C.s HATE GROUP are, and that they ARE not the Gold Star Familie's for Peace (no joke) she thought it was Cindy and the GSFP that picketed soldiers funerals and that the Bikers had to block etc. outrageous!

9. They probably said that on Faux News and he believed it.
"The Guy with the God Hates Us sign is a liberal" thats all they need to hear.
They don't even check to see who the protesters are, they are just told who they are.

12. And rightly so. Insufficient homophobia is a serious matter.
The Phelps clan is pissed that while Falwell did spew a huge amount of lies and vitriol in the direction of the gay community, he never actually killed any homosexuals. Such half-hearted support of the \"pro-family\" agenda is not to be tolerated.
