You know the really curious thing about the Phelps clan? When you get right down to it, they’re so maltheistic in their theology that they’re more like Cthulhu cultists than Christians.

Okay, what I don’t get about these guys is the same thing I don’t get about Calvinists — you’re either saved or not, basically arbitrarily, and there’s nothing you can do about it. So … it’s really important to yell at me for not winning the Eternal Lottery? You should convince people to, um, do what now? Have been selected? H-wha?

Now the Jehovah’s Witnesses, they’ve got an even better one: only 144,000 souls, I guess all of them Jehovah’s Witnesses, will go to Heaven at the end of the world. There are like nine million Jehovah’s Witnesses. So of course the thing to do is to go recruiting more people so your odds get even worse! Brilliant! But I guess when your religion says the World Will End! in ~~1914 1915 1918 1920 1925 1941 1975~~ 1994 and you stick with them, you know, hey.

I’m often amazed at the ferocity with which a certain kind of personality insists on living in its own crap.

They can’t even smell it anymore. Everyone else can, though.

I can’t help but notice that people who subscribe to the bullshit beliefs that Phelps has chosen to brainwash his family into buying, all too conveniently count themselves as part of the “elect”.
Which kinda undermines the credibility of the whole just a skosh, doesn’t it?

John 3:16.1
For God so hated the world that he gave it the Westboro Baptist Church, for he who singeth with it shall not sing in tune, but shall have eternal suckitude.

From the article:

For the Pastor Phelps, except for a handful of ‘elect’, the human race is composed of depraved beasts. God hates these creatures and so do His favored few. The world is divided sharply and irreversibly between the multitude of the already-damned (called the reprobate or the Adamic Race) and those chosen by God to attend Him in heaven. Those selected to be elect were tapped, not for the rectitude of their lives, but by what could best be described as the Supreme Whim of the Deity.

If I believed any of this, I would advocate starting a sect devoted to killing this tyrannical god and freeing us all. Death to the evil demiurge!

Rishy, I read that a long time ago, and to those of you who haven’t yet, it’s incredibly disturbing. Fred Phelps isn’t just an obnoxious cretin, he’s a truly loathesome, despicibly, horrible human being.

Our community has to deal with “pastor” Phred on a too regular basis. I found this VERY unauthorized biography “Addicted to Hate” that explains a great deal about how that monster was created.

I DON’T CARE WHAT MICHAEL PHELPS SINGS, I LOOK AT THE HOT CHIX IN HIS SWELL VIDEO AND THINK “I’D HIT THAT…”.

Shorter painfully untalented Christofacist Singers: God hates everyone in the world, which must include us, and we’re going to bitch at you about it even though it’s too late to do anything to change His mind, which in itself is a theological quandary insofar as God in His omnipotence should be able to change his mind, yet in His omniscience He should never have to change it. So this has all been a big wankfest for no good reason, and we thank you for listening.

I stored up God’s wrath for a while, but that shit is useless! Can’t heat the house with it, can’t cook with it. I couldn’t even trade it in for a Tlaloc-sent rainstorm.

God hates Swedes because they locked up this pastor once for saying Teh Gaze Is Rong. He also hates the Irish because they’re Catholic, Canada for telling WBC to fuck off, and the UK for having civil unions.
