Having lived most of my adult life in CowboyHeaven, Montana, I am neither surprised nor astounded at the ongoing antics of cult members of Westboro Baptist.

Montana draws cultists and white supremacists like flies on cow paddies.
Usually wet ones.

The romance you know. Hey I live in BigSky country.
Whatever.

Watching Shirley Phelps on Fox , because some of the kids were home for Mitchel’s fifteenth birthday and they have to have the TV on!All The time!
She fits the profile of the perfect Christian wife, long hair, (showing her submission)
Eleven children, the faithful wife.
OOPS!
Hey Shirley do they beat you for mistakes?

She misquoted a passage from Leviticus, it actually is written:
‘Do not hate your brother in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in his guilt. ‘Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:17-18

Gosh didn’t Jesus say something like this also?
Heh.

“Jesus said to him, ’you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with your entire mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.”
Mt 22:36

Westboro Baptist is neither Baptist nor Christian.
It is a cult of evil.
That is not a judgment; by the way, it is discernment.

“Make every effort to add to your faith, goodness;
And to goodness, knowledge;
And to knowledge, self-control;
And to self-control, perseverance;
And to perseverance, godliness;
And to godliness, brotherly kindness;
And to brotherly kindness, love.”
(2 Peter 1:5-7)

“If we possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep us from being ineffective and unproductive.”
(2 Peter 1:8)

The fruits of the spirit are evident in the life of one who loves God; characteristics such as Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control.

Contrast these fruits of the Spirit of a Christian with the behavior of those misguided and lost souls of Westboro Cult under the Evil lead of Fred Phelps.

Hate, Outbursts of Wrath, Contention, Jealousy, Vengefulness, and Misery, Harshness, and Selfish ambition.

In addition to their anti-homosexual stance, the cult also possesses a strong anti-Catholic, anti-Christian, racist, neo-Nazi, anti-American, and anti-Semitic leaning.. umm well
something like that

Elements of a Cult
1) A centralized form of leadership that rules with unquestioned authority
2) A body of convictions, beliefs, and practices set forth boldly as “the truth”
3) A compelling presentation of the group vision to prospects that is inviting and challenging
4) A series of manipulative socializing sessions to instill psychological dependence on the group
5) A definable process of group dynamics used to unethically control and manipulate members
6) A history of abuses of authority by group leaders freely using deception and fear tactics
7) A history of psychological and spiritual abuses of group members that destroy lives
Pity them and pray for them.
