What Religion can do...

[FuzzBall 005]

Just heard about Fred Phelps and his hate group...This is what happens when you let religious fanatics go loose.  

[Jester the Nightmare]

You know that and burning people alive, slaughtering blacks, and bashing the skulls of gays in. Of course thats just fanatics.....or is it?

I just read through all these... my eye kept twitching. How anyone can feel so strongly against homosexual people is beyond me. eek

They're like real-life trolls.
It's really stupid, and I have no idea how they lived to their age being like they are, but I still have this little wriggly hope that they're kidding. But nah.
I think there is actually one member of their family who is an atheist, his name is Nate Phelps? Not sure.

The best thing about them is that radio and TV shows make fun of them. The Chaser's War on Everything guy was hitting on one of the (male) anti-gay sign-holders. It was great.

Society? Even my bf feels some certain homophobic tendencies, although he is quiet about it. That and being brought up in a certain way can influence someone to either fear or have inner hatred of homosexuals.

An example on how messed up religion can be is during the preaching of a speaker in a church or some place.
There was this fat lady with blond hair speaking the follow:

" If Harry Potter existed back during the old times.... * pause *
Warlocks are evil! Whether they are good or bad, they are wrong and
should be put to death!!! "

From the way I see it, she is saying that ANYTHING that is different from humans should be killed because they are " wrong ".
Wouldn't that mean we would have to DESTROY all organisms not like us on the planet? That would destroy our food supply and mostly cause world-wide famine.

Mmm, I'm betting if alien life landed on this planet, he'd be the first one to shout "Demon! Kill it, kill it!".
