God Hates Sweden

WBC's existence is embarrassing to all Americans.

please don't lump all of america with Westboro Baptist Church we hate them to, like a lot.

@Mericagirl I'd shoot the adult members of the WBC if I could.

@Mericagirl I wouldn't be surprised if the entire WBC were to burn in hell. They certainly seem to deny Christ and His works. They've forgotten, "Judge not, lest you yourselves be judged."

@Mericagirl They show up and protest EVERY TIME at San Diego Comic Con. Nobody takes them seriously, and there are sometimes Jesus cosplayers out there holding signs making fun of them. It's just annoying that they even bother. It's a nerd convention, ffs. Maybe they just want the media coverage. Nobody gives it to them, though, so they should just go home. Unless they don't mind paying our tourism taxes.

As a Christian who lives in America, I disown the Westbro Baptist Church and just try to pretend it doesn't exist. They are extremely hypocritical to what the Bible actually says. According to the Bible, God is merciful and forgiving, and says that we should love our neighbor as we love ourselves, not calling people out and making them feel awful.

@Snickerwolf22 I agree with this, although where I live, people are very intolerant towards homosexuality.

*COUGH COUGH* ACTUALLY IT SAYS MAN SHALL NOT LAY WITH BOY BUT PEOPLE CONFUSE IT FOR MAN SHALL NOT LAY WITH MAN AND THERE WAS A GAY COUPLE IN THE BIBLE BUT AMERICA IS JUST A BUNCH OF DUMBASSES *COUGH*

Just want to say, Most Americans would not shed a tear if the WBC all died in a fire

@CosmicMind89 what's the WBC?

That does it. Estonia is a Nordic country.

I'm finnish. I remember being forced to pray before dinner in daycare and preschool. I still remember the Our Father prayer word for word even though i've always been an atheist. I even one told a priest, at my youngest brother's christening when i was four or five, that there was no god. I remember because it was caught on video.

Somehow the child-me never realized, despite the aforementioned forced prayers and my sibling's baptisms, that the adults actually believed in this God guy. I was under the impression they were some kind of weird rituals like sauna, easter bunny, and santa claus.

I was outright terrified when i grew to learn that not only is religion widely believed, but actively attempted to force on everybody on the planet one way or the other at this exact moment.That adult people, mentally healthy adult people with jobs and education, believe in and worship a magic man in the sky. I was even more shocked when i noticed they had brainwashed my little brother into some kind of a fundamentalist at age 12.

Often i just wish that every religious person on Earth would somehow be struck dead. Imagine what we as a species and as a society could achieve without them violently (see religious terrorists, american mass shooters, and the like) or politically (see american politics, built-on-religious-bias education, and the very existence of the abortion debate) hindering our development.

Ironically, for "every religious person on Earth would somehow be struck dead", would require a deliberate and very specific Act of God.

I honestly doubt the world would become as paradise-like as you imagine. Most of the worst monsters in our species are motivated by simple greed, selfishness, a lust for power, hatred and a lack of empathy or compassion. Religion is merely their tool for gaining a lot of fanatical supporters to assist them in their self-serving atrocities. If you'll look, horrible leaders today are quite able to motivate large groups of ignorant people by convincing them of fairly nonsensical things, without even needing to bring god into it. Look at Trump and his magical wall that Mexico will pay for! (Or whatever civil right and protection he's trying to destroy this week... I've stopped keeping track).

Yes, America. As in you shall not lie to other people. And even if it isn't, God also said that any woman who loses her virginity before she's married must be executed so... yea.

@potatoe4life You shall not lie to men as you do women?

Oh no one has any idea how embarrassing them WBC is to EVERYONE else in America. There is a reason that no one talks about Arkansas too. We aren't proud of them, so... Yha.

*Scoff* Republicans...
