Somebody brought a life sized cow statue and a sign reading “you’re not in Kansas anymore.”
I actually wasn’t able to get outside during the counterprotest – the WBC came while classes were in session, and I had a teacher who didn’t want to let us out. The three GLBT kids in the class (3 out of 12 is pretty high, no?) skipped.
Plus, the WBC failed and protested the wrong side of the building. Kinda funny watching out the window as they screamed at the fire exit.
Ken, you’re totally right.
These people live to cause a scene and get attention. If the whole world were just to walk on by withough a second glance then imagine how upset they’d be! The only way their voice stays alive is when it is given an ear, if you don’t listen, it will fade away….
On the other hand, this sign is hilarious and i love it! haha
True comment, though. God doesn’t hate the sinner–he just hates the sin. He hates the sin because it separates the sinner from God by having focused on the sin rather than God. Quid pro quo: Anything can become a sin if you focus on it more than you focus on God; however, that doesn’t mean that sin instantly condemns you. He knows that we are not perfect and accepts that; but he commands that you must do two things: Make a wholehearted effort to keep from sin (Nobody but you and him will be able to honestly tell if you are doing it wholeheartedly) and believe that he is the way to salvation and atonement. So many churches today keep flipping the way to salvation around making it seem as though you have to live a “perfect” life in order to stay out of hell, but the very book that they use to quote from states that salvation comes faith which leads to good works, rather than their twisted reality of good works leading to salvation.
This is not the voice of reason, but the voice the ego-centrism. They will only see the “other” through the narrow lens of their own religious and cultural experience. Homosexuality is only a “sin” if you believe in Christianity. I am not here to argue with their viewpoint because faith cannot be beholden to rational discourse.
Seeing as how the bible says God loves all of his children, I would surmise he doesn’t hate gays. There’s also the fact that assuming you know what God thinks about anything is pretty much along the lines of saying his name in vain. Therefore, as a REAL Christian who follows the commandment known as “Love thy neighbor,” I believe the “so called” Christians who state God hates gays are going to hell.
Everytime I bring a straight woman (single or taken) to a gay bar the first thing she always says is “Every one of you is hot…and you’re all gay?”. My mom couldn’t handle seeing hot older men when I took her out. It’s just a fact.
The dating pool is small enough, when you toss in any sort of deviant behavior you narrow your choices down even more… basicaly you have to look good to be competative.
I know, right?
I once sent the “godhatesfags” guys a…. letter…… Very long. Threw everything in their face. Epic win letter.
But seriously. Why would anyone worship this “God” of theirs if he was just going to damn us all to Hell anyway? If “God” is so damn hateful, what’s the point?
Gays are cute!! what is wrong with you, you’re the reason i hate people. Go ahead and puke then, no one really cares about people who judge yet don’t take the time to learn. Homosexuality is not a choice, i mean really in today’s society with all you haters why would you CHOOSE to be gay, why don’t you just accept?! -.- don’t comment on things you don’t know about and choose to judge.
Wish I’d thought of this when the Westboro Baptist Church came through town to protest my school last year.
they’re coming to mine soon any ideas?

If you really want to drive the Phelps clan crazy, ignore them. It would break their hearts if no one bothered to look to them or speak to them.

Agreed, or read the bible to them. Because they obviously aren’t reading the same one I am.
yeah, God loves homosexuals, just not the act of homosexuality. just like he loves alcoholics, but not their alcoholism.
Stupid comment dan.

Kudos to both you and Dan for being the voice of reason.

I still don’t understand how God could possibly HATE anything. Or how the “entity behind all of creation” can be molded to standard human emotion
stupid comment AbdelAzeez
dan made an EXCELLENT point.
So, it’s ok to equate gay people with alcoholics as long as you’re doing it for the Lord?
no no, we are. It’s the EXACT same one.lol I’m christian. I’m bisexual. I read the bible. I know what it says. Do you?
Exactly. WBC are the real real-life trolls. Ignore them and they lose all their power.
OMG, there’s an idea. I need to go find a hate protest with a sign – ‘DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS’
Ha! I love it.
yea they made some girls cry >_>
Two can be as bad as one …
Seriously, though, i’d recommend my local Pride club to have that sign for any counterprotest xD
God loves the homosexuals.
Please don’t think any differently.
Too gay to be funny
^^^ Epic Win!
^^^ Epic Fail!

Nicely done
couldnt have said it better myself
very well put
Sometimes I wish the comments had “like” buttons
ha, i like this one

The only “fact” is that we try harder to look good for a longer period of life. Effort goes a long way…haha…

Gays are cute > w <
REMEMBER, PEOPLE! EGG!!
Emos
Goths, and
Gays
give the BEST hugs on earth :]
And on the internet, furries.
The power of the impossible cute compels you! :-p
*blushes, and wags my tail quickly* I can’t say I disagree :3
That is so gosh darn true!
From now on I’ll remember EGG.
And now, it’s time for me to find an adorable emo boy.
Sigh. I geuss I’ll make an exception in my crusade against emo >w<
Ima go find someone gay to hug 8D But then maybe I should hug myself… o_O
Thumbs up to all the GLBTSA peeps out there! And to whoever held up that sign: GO GO GO!
IT’S A TRAP!
no really, that applies to traps
Do your thing but don’t touch mine.
if god wouldn’t have wanted gay people, why would he have made them?
or why would he have made the prostate a male g-spot thats fully stimulable?
A comment I keep bringing up in these people’s faces that seems to get ignored.
Asides from which, it’s a logical fallacy. God made us all. God hates gays. God therefore made me gay. Thus, God made me to burn in hell.
If the above is true, then God can go to hell. =P Simple as, lol.
I know, right?

You bass turds, you’re saying he doesn’t love the ugly ones!
You’re not cute, you make me want to puke!
Do the world a favor, puke on yourself.

yay for obvious win
He has a point…
So true!
I dated a gay guy before either of us came out… He was sooo cute, even before he grew out his hair.
God hates no one cause he doesn’t exist ><
chuck norris exists instead
Too true… Too true
Don’t be mean to the WBC people. Fighting hate with hate isn’t going to get anyone anywhere, it’s just going to put everyone in a tizzy.
xxx.
This is so true. They are fuckin adorable those gays.
the devil was considered one of the most beautiful things around
Prepare to be flamed with logic.
Duh- we’re cute because God made us that way. He has fabulous taste, you know.
HOMOSEXUALS
FTWWWW!!!!
That was some instructive writing…
This made my day.
