the WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH are protesting Heath Ledgers funeral because he played in broke back mountain.
Whyy cant these people get some kind of life an go protest themselves... they are from the site godhatesfags.com an protest soldiers, gays an most famous for Mathew Shephards funeral.
The radical Baptist church known for picketing the funerals of American soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq has announced that they intend to protest Heath Ledger's stateside memorial service because he played a gay character in "Brokeback Mountain"
"You cannot live in defiance of God. He (Ledger) got on that big screen with a big, fat message: God is a liar and it's OK to be gay" said Shirley Phelps in a statement sent out by the Topeka, Kan.-based Westboro Baptist Church.
The only compelling reason to ignore Westboro Baptist's reprehensible intentions is that highlighting the vast inappropriateness of their thoughts and actions only brings the church more publicity. However, if the members of Westboro Baptist get to speak their minds, every individual who feels that this is an affront to most basic standards of human ethics should be able to as well.
Westboro Baptist Church, I remembered watching a news story about it and the lady looked like a real creep. But after hearing why they protest made them look like complete IDIOTS NATIONWIDE. even then the followers of that church is 90% family members, keeping it within the family is alright too to them biggrin
Even though there is a separation of church and state, they were specifically limited to protest during those funerals cause its a disrespect to all the nation. They were literally being hypocritical on the whole reason why our soldiers fight. You us and for our freedoms. They anger me. How dare they show their faces in public after what they do. How dare they protest just because they think god doesn't approve of Ledger being in broke back mountain. How dare they abuse their American freedom of speech.
