Westboro \u201cBaptist\u201d \u201cChurch\u201d held a demonstration outside my church yesterday.<\/p>\n
In the mountains for the long weekend, I missed it.<\/p>\n
Our church wasn\u2019t the only one. The Phelps family and their \u201cchurch\u201d waved their signs at a Conservative Baptist Church, a Religious Science Church, and mine, a non-denominational church. It was an interesting choice of targets.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ve demonstrated at more than 400 funerals<\/a> of warriors killed in action, paining grieving families, converting no one. They believe deaths in combat are signs of God\u2019s wrath against this country for accepting homosexual behavior.<\/p>\n They\u2019ve waved their signs at the gravesides of fallen law enforcement, shown up at school graduations, and sports events. They have no shame, no restraints.<\/p>\n A local weekly publicized<\/a> their schedule and called it the \u201cColorado Hate Fest.\u201d<\/p>\n Why do they do it?<\/strong><\/p>\n There is no love lost for the homosexual community and they have zeroed in on this activity. And they target churches and governments that \u201ccondone the activity.\u201d<\/p>\n
