Fred Phelps asks God for a favor: Kill Kansas Attorney General Steve Six
When you center your campaign around being tough on Fred Phelps and company, you gotta be ready for the homophobic Topeka preacher to ask God to kill you.

Kansas Attorney General Steve Six is finding out that if you're on the wrong-side of Phelps, then someone's going to try to phone a deity. Six is in favor of laws to keep people Phelps and his Westboro Baptist Church from picketing funerals -- be it a soldier or someone who died from AIDS or Ronnie James Dio. Let's face it, the laws are meant just for the Phelps family. Who else pickets funerals? So Phelps, in his latest video proving that he's not dead, calls for an imprecatory prayer, which is basically asking God to be his personal hit-man and kill Six.

In the video, Phelps says:
"Now Westboro Baptist Church has an imprecatory prayer for Steve Six. We're asking the dear Lord to visit this great shame back on his head. We pray that God will hear this man when he talks and repay him double for his evil in your face rebellion against God."
For you masochists, here's the full video.

1. I would have that video playing on a loop on my cellphone and wear it like a medallion.
It's a badge of honor.

2. Is this new? Phelps asking for the deaths of specific people?
If someone could PROVE that God answers prayers, then Phelps COULD be indicted for uttering death threats.

10. Not all--some attend his congregation.
They see themselves as 'religious' and neither I--nor you, have the power to judge their sincerity.

I take Christians at their word.

14. No. That's the sad part. It's not.
There's always some sad fuck-hanger-on, willing to be the 'complainant' when WBC files a complaint or the like..they think it gives them more credibility to have a few hangers on....a very, special few.

12. Well, tell Dad it's time for some old-fashioned smiting
Edited on Mon Oct-18-10 08:44 PM by Canuckistanian
He certainly used it on some other charlatans back about 3,000 years or so.

Done in the name of love, of course.

15. I've asked you this before, but never gotten an answer (unsurprisingly!)
Where's all the Old Testament smiting?

19. Reminds me of a Simpsons quote:
Bart: And please God, kill Sideshow Bob.
Marge: Bart no!!!! You can't ask god to kill someone!
Homer: Yeah! You do your own dirty work!
