This past week in class we have discussed variety of topics on religion and to be more specific we talked about religion and gay marriage. Gay marriage is considered to be wrong and there are a lot people who really hate even to think that they are living among them. Well in Kansas City the religious fanatics of the Westboro Baptist Church are taking things to the extreme level.
The church fanatics were protesting outside the military funeral with very provocative signs. Those horrible signs were offending the families of the dead soldiers, but it also offended me as I watch this craziness to unfold. I still can’t believe that people take religion so serious that they actually lose their mind in it. It shocks me to see how people can be manipulated so easily just by one person name Phelps(The leader of the church). As for the follower, those people can’t think for themselves, they are brain washed with this rubbish since they were little kids. The worst part about it is that most of the members of the Westboro Baptist Church are from Phelps’ own family. There is defiantly something wrong with this family, maybe they’re inbred, mentally if not physically.
This issue was brought up because some people say it was a violation of the 1st commandment(Freedom of Speech). Well let’s look at it a little closer. The Phelps people still have the right to say whatever they want. But they do not, however, have the right to say it wherever or whenever they want. What kind of church going person with a good appreciation towards Gods' teachings would ever hold up a sign saying “God hates Fags”.
If there is a hell, these idiots will have a special place waiting for them. Plus those Westboro Baptist Church fanatics got sued for 11 million dollar. There are a lot of people hoping it will be the end of the Westboro Baptist Church and their stupidity. The full story is available here.
Thank you for reading,

P.S I'm still outraged by those brain washed idiots.
