I didn’t think I could agree with Fox News… but I do:
So, God bless the Bill of Rights!
In considering their ideology, they have offended the “word” of God. As a young boy in Sunday School – what happened to that loving God who loved everyone? Were those pictures of Jesus hugging random adorable children a lie? I hope not – those pictures were cute. According to this woman, people who are homosexuals and who died in 9/11 are evil… I find it hard to believe that all gays and all 2,974 died in 9/11 were all evil. I’m sure some of those people weren’t fantastic people, but no one deserves to die like that – and some of the nicest people I’ve met are gay or closeted – I have my suspicions!
I haven’t picked up my bible since senior year of high school, but these people have inspired me to do some of my own research. Of course the words, “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” mean nothing… Of course the words, “Love your enemies and do good to them, and lend expecting nothing back.” Technically, those people at Westboro should be hugging the crap out of “fags” and giving them money!
That pretty lady from Fox News was getting at this – Leviticus 19:18 “Take no revenge and cherish no grudge against your fellow countrymen. You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Go figure. You know immediately following that it says “Do not put on a garment woven out of two different types of thread.” I wonder if she adheres to that… Would she adhere to this?- Deuteronomy 25:11-12 – “When two men are fighting and the wife of one intervenes to save her husband from the blows of his opponents, if she stretches out her hand and seizes the latter by his private parts (aka his nads), you shall chop off her hand without pity.” I can’t speak to what she would do, but man, can you imagine that kind of bar brawl?!
The things I have learned from my bible study (today) are the following.
-Love everyone – even “fags”.
-Lend money like there’s no tomorrow – and anticipate no return! This means I’m writing a letter to WBC right now asking them to pay off my school loans for free because I asked them to and God told them to lend me the money.
-Don’t be mixing your woven threads. ”Is that a cotton blend?! You’re so going to hell.”
-My wife is never to grab at genitals while I am wrestling with another man. That is the exact opposite of a happy ending.
-The bible is more relevant now than ever.
Thanks Mrs. Phelps-Roper for teaching me the way through your craziness!
