Those WBC bastards came up to massachusetts and went around high schools and middle schools with their hate signs/hate protests (you know, the 'god hates fags' type stuff they normally do) ... some of it during graduations because, in their words, the schools were promoting homosexuality or some other nonesense.

That's pretty disturbing.

It's one thing to take issue with the administration and it's practices, but it's another thing to involve innocents (the children) that had nothing to do with it.

And you're mad because they senselessly did it at graduations, ruining a special day for you

Good reason to rant, but bad rant

"If you hate God, you're going to go to Hell," he said.

And then what's the punishment if you promote hate in his/her name?

Depends on the religion. Some of them, you get virgins as a reward.

LOL! Your case was also in Kansas? I had that experience for the first time when I went for graduation of someone I knew in Kansas. The first sign I saw said something like "God hates fags".

Well, I was kind of uncomfortable, but at the same time, it felt like my trip wouldn't be complete if I hadn't seen that. The Midwest seemed so opposite my prejudices before I saw those signs.

I'm glad I don't do the religion thing. I know, I know....they're not all like that. Anyways, these ones in particular should be strung up by their toes and sandblasted.

I despise people like that. Loathe them. Detest them. May they burn eternally in the hell they wish upon others.

Bearing signs declaring "Your pastor is lying," "Thank God for 9/11," and a portrait of Matthew Shepherd, a gay man who died after he was beaten, robbed and tied to a fence in Wyoming in 1998, with a count of "6 years in Hell," the protesters spread out along the public way on McMahon Road in front of the main entrance of the middle school.
WTF is wrong with these people? And how does 9/11 relate to homosexuals?

I would not equate those people with all religion. As a Christian I find them repulsive and very offensive, especially when they are carying signs like "God hates fags" and "Thank God for 9/11". That is freaking rediculous and I am insulted that they actually refer to themselves as true believers. I would challenge any one of them to back up their claims and beliefs using the Bible. If God really hated sinners why the heck did he come down, take human form, and freaking die for us all? The Bible is full of love and compassion for sinners, not blind hatred. (The old testamant was before the new covenant of Jesus so the rules were a little different then).

I am seriously peeved at people like that...
