Somehow i think they fail to see the point......

These are the people who give Christians a bad name.

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son"


"I have come into the world not to condemn it but to save it." (Jesus)


"Ye who has no sin cast the first stone."


Maybe they should spend more time reading Gods Word and less time distorting it.

[boogiesadda]

And everyone wonders why i cant stand Evangelicals??? Watch the rest of their shit too!!!!!!!!!!!

[MeDeFe]

I think jay has also failed to see the point, but I'm not completely sure... It could also be that I'm seeing things where there are no things to see.

God Hates

The Westboro Baptist Church

“Not everyone can accept this teaching, but only those to whom it is given. For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let anyone accept this who can.” (Matthew 19:11-12)

[Anarchist]

I hate anything that makes me a eunuch

[Stopper]

Very funny video. When I first saw the Westboro Church's website, I couldn't decide whether these kooks were serious or not, and not even a recent Louis Theroux documentary helped me make up my mind.

Anyway, it gets on my nerves, the amount of media attention they get, given that they've got less than 100 members.

EDIT: What's with the man flying the upside-down Canadian flag in the background?

Exactly what I was referring to, I can't really imagine that anyone would actually mean all that, and those songs of theirs simply crack me up. I don't think I've heard anything so outrageously funny before.
On the other hand the signs you usually get when you're looking at satire are missing.

Exactly - their protests and some of their materials are just downright offensive and unfunny, and clearly don't serve any satirical purpose.

But still, they can be a fantastic source of hilarity - this open letter to the United Kingdom made me burst out laughing for the salutation alone...

I hope they never get a PR agent.

"God is love and those who live in love, live in God and God lives in them"
My view of God was that he didn't have any hate in him... righteous indignation maybe, but hate... don't think so

I did not watch and don't know if the guy is savvy to this but...

Flying your own flag upside down was a signal of distress for the Canadian Military.

The singing was awful! Just awful!

You're right. It is people like this that give Christians a bad name. It's called an extremest group, just like the taliban. But, what do you know, the US went to war with the middle east because of an extremest group. Odd isn't it?

[2dimes]

So if they are not recieving commercial gain they can't be sued for stealing that song or what?

I can't recall exactly what one it is but it's one of those Christmas songs like, "Do they know it's christmas?"

[Balsiefen]

i cannot believe that humens can actually drive themselves into that state of mind, thats a really screwd up bunch youve got thare. i also agree with jay but it is also the more widespead, less radicav views that also annoy people

i didnt think people could think things like that then sing a happy song about it, create a TV station with it
How many of these people are thare?

[FRSmk3]

Man, that's one of the funniest blasphemous things I've seen in a long time.

[CrazyAnglican]

No I'm afraid they are all too serious.

I wouldn't be too quick to even call these people Christian guys. The yardstick for what is and is not Christian, from the time of Constantine, has been The Nicean Creed. I'm not really a scripture or creed quoter, but when faced with this from others claiming my faith, I have to go back to it. The Nicean creed states this about Jesus "For us and for our salvation, he came down from heaven," and states that "We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins." There is no one specific group from which salvation is withheld. A baptized homosexual, who repents of all of his or her sins is just as likely to be saved as a thief, or someone who habitually ticks people off with his religious dogma .

These people are denying that Christ will save you unless you conform to their ideas. That puts them outside of what the councils of Nicea termed as Christian.


Here is the creed to which I refer if anyone wants to check me on this.

Yeah, I know, "if somebody calls themselves a Christian we have to believe them" , but there is such a thing as heresy and misusing the name to make a political or social statement that wouldn't hold water otherwise. So, in essence, if you want to protest these wackos, hand me a picket sign.

A bunch of nimrods singing "God Hates the World" is not even close to a regime that gave safe harbor to Al Queda. Al Queda took physical action against the United States, murdering about 3,000 innocent people. How can you even compare the 2 groups as the same?

Did these so-called Christians (there's no way they could be) give aid, comfort, and shelter to Al-Queda? No...the Taliban did.

Figures the Jesus freaks would rush to defend them.

How many innocent people has america killed? Isnt this government run by similar christians?

War is wrong. Dont try to give excuses for murder

I'd just like to say that these idiots are not similar to 99.99% of other christians.

[FRSmk3]

I don't think they even care about the war. In the first god hates fags video on youtube, the person clearly states that they're just doing what they're doing to mock people. They don't care if people are doing to the right or wrong things, they're just fulfilling their earthly desires, and trying to make themselves look like saints in their own eyes at the same time.

Is it actually, "We Are The World"? Someone suggested it on youtube - I think it's somewhat similar, but I'm no good at judging these sorts of things.

[2dimes]

Yeah that's it.

That sums the whole thing up. Take a positive song and make it into something hatefull.

Very true but al quida (sp?) are idiots who are not simular to 99.99% of other muslims
