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.

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...

Also in the Bible (mostly Leviticus, right next to "man shall not lie down with man"):
-- If a child curses its parent, that child shall be put to death. (To serve as a warning to the others! They had more kids back then; they could spare one.)
--If a man lies with an animal, then he shall be put to death... and so shall the animal (because that sheep was begging for it, the whore!)
-- If a man lies in a bed where a woman has had her period, he shall be put to death (Gee, I hope married couples are exempted. Pretty much makes premarital sex a capital punishment crime though. Maybe if you have your own rooms?)
-- "Anything from the water that does not have fins and scales is unclean to you" (So... I guess cancel our reservation at Red Lobster then... forever.)

They're not interested in living by the Bible (which is fortunate, because that involves a lot of murdering your children and committing suicide, apparently). They realize "Gays make me feel uncomfortable and think about things I don't want to think about" would be a completely weak, if honest, argument.

@Hinoron There's also a whole bunch of other things like tattoos, forgiving debts after 7 years, evil counsel, usury, and a whole bunch of other things people choose to ignore

@Hinoron That's the Old Testament; most of the Old Testament rules no longer apply, as they were meant for a harsher time.

Interestingly enough on the animal-execution case, I remember reading an article awhile ago about a French man named Jaques Ferron whom in the 1700s was sentenced to death for having sex with a donkey and was hanged. The donkey was to be hanged too, but all the people in the village (including the local priest) petitioned for the donkey to be spared saying of the donkey that "... she had always shown herself to be virtuous and well-behaved both at home and abroad and had never given occasion of scandal to anyone" and that ".. they are willing to bear witness that she is in word and deed and in all habits of life a most honest creature ...".
The judge agreed and pardoned the donkey on the bases that she was forced against her will. So that story had a happy ending.

@Hinoron Not to mention that a woman losing her virginity before marriage is a death sentence too.
