And then we have Christian Conservative Pastor Bradlee Dean who said that Islamofascists are more hollier because they execute gays.


And now we also have Christian Conservative countries considering death penalties and life sentences for homosexuals.]]></description>

If your too fanatical about something and cant call it for what it is, then you pretty much all but ensure the other side wins. Its a good case study in how NOT to fight something.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t dispute that he made a wad of cash on civil rights lawsuits initially. The TampaBay.com  article you linked was interesting.  It seems that they survive as Correction officers and other state government jobs.  The lawsuits now seem to fund their out of state protest trips. 

I also do not dispute that he may hate blacks while litigating on their behalf (maybe for no other reason than $).  That would be par for the course for Democrats.

I wanted to say the group will break apart on Fred Phelps death.  It would not be an uncommon event given the dynamics of groups especially given the Elder Phelps misgivings as he approaches death. 

But I suspect as many other do his misgivings were the reason for his excommunication.  Shirley Phelps-Roper is probably taking over the group behind some male figure.  She is the one with the law degree, the knowledge of the group&#039;s accounting books.  She is the key IMHO. If she could be persuaded, things would be better.  But a person would have to overcome the knowledge that &quot;I have wasted my whole life until now&quot;. No matter how sound your argument is that will most often drive a rationalizing person right back into their old ways.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That could explain that cult&#039;s racial hatreds.  WBC&#039;s insane homophobia is always front and center, but few people are aware of their racial hatreds as well.  

As we have all seen, it is so over the top, that one can&#039;t help but wonder why anyone would want to be part of a cult that literally makes a mockery of itself whenever it goes out in public.

They must be fishing for attention, good or bad, because that is the only probably the only reason they show up in public and make complete fools of themselves.]]></description>
