For those that don't know it, GODHATESFAGS.COM is a website set up by the leader of the Westboro Baptist Church - Fred Waldron Phelps Sr, a so called Christian, who dedicates his lifes work to inducing hate against the worlds homosexual population. He goes so far as to picket the funerals of aids suffers with signs like "God Hates Fags" and "he deserved to die" and he takes pride in it.

Cited from Wikipedia.com - Phelps has stated as his purpose for Westboro:

"Our goal is to preach the Word of God to this crooked and perverse generation. By our words, some will repent. By our words, some will be condemned. Whether they hear, or whether they forbear, they will know a prophet has been among them... our goal is to glorify God by declaring His whole counsel to everyone... we hope that by our preaching some will be saved."

As one sided as he is, Michael Moore waged a justified war against him back in the late 90s and he took his pink "Sodomobile" winnebago to gate crash Phelps own picketlines. This was featured on the brilliant The Awful Truth television show, that needs to be seen to believed. This inspired me to wage a little war of my own. I am not a gay man, but I believe in ones right to choose.

Here is what I posted on their website:


"Name: I go by many names.
Subject: I PLEDGE MY FULL SUPPORT TO YOUR CAUSE

GODHATESFAGS.COM is by far my favourite site on the Internet.

Just the title alone makes me jump with excitement and anticipation. GOD HATES FAGS. Wow, such hatred.... AND it implies that the statement is coming from the big cheese herself. Since I was cast out of heaven for rebelling against her, all those eons ago, GOD has always preached nothing but love, acceptance and compassion in her countless sermons (the ones those priest guys constantly rant on about). So in her old age she seems to be contradicting herself.... not that it bothers me. FINALLY she is seeing my way of life. But why stop there?

Since the beginning of time, I have made it my sole purpose to induce and support unconditional hatred throughout every demographic that exists. So naturally I am filled with JOY (my own dark kind) when I browse through your site. But honestly, who says that we should discriminate towards just homosexuals.... lets not stop there, GOD. So far you have jumped on board with Gays and Lesbians... but there is so much more work to be done. Let me list for you:


Gays and Lesbians (you have my full support GOD)

Caucasians, Asians, Europeans, Polynesians, Blacks and Hispanics

Cowboys and Rednecks

Politicians and Socialites

Truckers and Bikies

Parents who spend their children's inheritances

Parents who dont spend their children's inheritances (I don't like to discriminate)

Priests and Holy Men (lets include the Pope in that one too)

Holy Women (lets face it - there are some, no use pretending there isn't.)

EVERYONE that resides in Hollywood

Tabloid newspaper editors and Gossip Columnists

Anarchists, Christians, Communists, Communalists, Conservatives, Fascists, Feminists, Greens, Muslims, Liberals, Libertarians, Nationalists, Socialists and anyone else with or without a point of view.

AND lets not forget - Fred Waldron Phelps, Sr


Lets encourage all of the above to stand up for their own beliefs and work tirelessly until the end of their days promoting that anything and everything is wrong and should be quashed! Free speech and a persons right to choose is NOT their right and the entire worlds population should bow down and worship me in my FIREY HELL for ALL TIME!

Or you could shut up and let me do my job.

Yours in flames,

Lucifer J Satan .........."


Nuff said.

Expanding on what is written above, below is a list of more alleged slogans held up by members of the Westboro Baptist Church on protests. Thanks to Wikipedia.com for this information:

Other slogans are[citation needed]:

This church lacks so many morals it makes me sick. They are unreasonable, naive and just plain sick. A so called "Christian Community" that should be disbanded and outlawed. I am an avid supporter of free speech, but it is unnecessary if it induces hate.

Something needs to be done.
