Outside of the usual single site banter, there exists a great exchange of ideas and learning from all corners of this world. This forum has enriched my life. It also provides me with a form of therapy, via my rants and the responses.

I love you all, be assured of that.

Paws

To correct myself; 75 members of this church, but how many thousands want-to-be's ?

Yeah well I'm sure they are all on alert at every border for them...and they have to show i.d. before they can enter so you can bet they have their names in the system....they are a little more clever than that at the borders here....

We need change. There is freedom of religion within both the American and Canadian charter of rights (Constitution in the U.S.) So many religions perpetrate hate under their religious rights. It sickens me, especially under the name of God.

I am an agnostic but would never hide behind that moniker to hurt or disrespect someone's emotions.

I just did some reading about this group.... I'm trying to figure out what they do like... one site said ... Church members claim the deaths are part of God's wrath against Americans for turning their back on his teachings. They have repeatedly called the U.S. a "fag" nation, a phrase Phelps-Roper used repeatedly to describe Canada.Phelps' gang, enroute to beheading victims funeral, stopped at Canadian border

WINNIPEG -- Residents rallied Thursday to protect the family of a young man murdered on a Greyhound bus last week from a posse of radical religious protesters planning to portray Tim McLean's death as God's wrath.

Earlier this week, the Westboro Baptist Church - an organization branded as a hate group and infamous for protesting the funerals of slain U.S. soldiers - announced they would picket Mr. McLean's funeral to let Canadians know that his decapitation was God's response to Canadian policies enabling abortion, homosexuality and adultery.

But Shirley Phelps-Roper, daughter of church's founder, Fred Phelps, said a small group of protesters was stopped at the Canada-U.S. border on Thursday afternoon.

"They won't let us in, but we have a group that will cross in another spot," she said. "They'll have to strip search everyone who crosses that border or they won't know who we are. They'll have to see the WBC (Westboro Baptist Church) tattoo on our butts" ...


Thanks. So glad to hear that.

My ex cheated and left me for a woman. She could have left me for a goat. What's the difference when betrayal is the act ?

They are threatening to..it doesn't mean they'll get away with it...we have the right to assemble here yes...but there are also hate laws so...I can't see them letting it happen....


I can only hope that our border guards detain them for 12 hours. They are also going to Toronto tomorrow to protest a theatre production. Not sure what the play is about, but they often protest theatre because they believe it to be a gay enterprise.

People die every minute, all over the world, through violence, starvation and disease. I guess somehow this incident has struck a chord in so many because it was so insanely perpetrated for no reason, and within an environment that most have experienced; public transportation.

If the greedy Hollywood types have anything to do with this tragedy, rest assured that they will make a movie out of it. I'm sure a few of books will be written as well.

Blood sells.

This young man has not deserved the disrespect for anything in his life. A church protesting at his funeral. Very God fearing and christian like behavior. Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't God mention forgiveness?

I feel bad for the family of the young man, and the family of the man who did the killing.

The way Tim is holding the little girl, and the way she is holding on to him and smiling, shows what kind of young man he is. Children know.


The little girl that he is holding is the daughter of his x girlfriend, the woman that he was text messaging when he was attacked.

As per all the blogs and new releases from people that new him, they all say that he was so loving and kind.

So quit watching it. That's what I do, the TV stays turned off anymore, and I'm sure not seeking it out on the web.

I know, it's like a car wreck, you just gotta look if it's there. But you don't have to go around hunting for it.


To me this is not slowing down to glance at a car wreck, it is staying informed. To ignore evil is to allow it to flourish.

After watching web broadcasted interviews of Shirley Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church, from the BBC, Fox, etc., I feel sick to my stomach. I will say no more on this subject.

Unbelievable;

The Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) is a fundamentalist Christian church; a small, controversial sect headed by Fred Phelps and based in Topeka, Kansas, United States. The organization is monitored by the Anti-Defamation League, and is classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

The church runs numerous websites such as GodHatesFags.com, GodHatesAmerica.com and others expressing condemnation of homosexuality, Roman Catholics, Muslims and Jews, as well as populations it believes are supporting the aforementioned groups, including Chinese, Swedes, Canadians, Irish, British, Mexicans and Americans.

Shirley Phelps-Roper is now the head of the church, as her father before her she too is a lawyer.....yes really. I just listened to an interview with her father, where he says of the Virginia State massacre, "33 were killed, too bad it wasn't 33 thousand".

A sad Paws.

This church group described in a British documentary as "the most hated family in America" says it will head to Canada this weekend to protest Tim McLean's funeral.

The daughter of the founder of the Westboro Baptist Church, based in Topeka, Ka., told CTV.ca she and several other church members will go to Winnipeg on Saturday to demonstrate against what she described as McLean's "filthy way of life." Shirley Phelps-Roper said his life was emblematic of Canada's moral decay.

"God handed us a gift," Phelps-Roper said in a phone interview on Thursday.

She said McLean deserved his death by beheading on a Greyhound Bus last week.


Freedom of religion should have its limits.

Members of the controversial Westboro Baptist Church are threatening to picket the funeral of Tim McLean, the young man decapitated on a Greyhound bus last week.

The Kansas-based church - a small fundamentalist sect led by Fred Phelps - is reviled in the United States for protesting the funerals of hundreds of soldiers killed in the Iraq war. The sect gained notoriety in the 1990s by picketing the funeral of Matthew Shepard, a young gay man beaten to death in Wyoming.

Seven members of the church originally planned to picket theatre performances in Toronto and Red Deer, Alta., later this week. They recently added Mr. McLean's Manitoba funeral to their itinerary and plan to stand outside the service with signs reading "God hates you," "the wrath of God is revealed," and "God hates Canada."
