No, stupid, I did not. I said something MIGHT have happened, and that at worst we'd have taken their signs and trashed the signs. I did not say we were going with the intent of physically attacking or confronting anyone. Again, you read what you wanted to read. I said we were going down to where they were protesting. Show me where I wrote ANYTHING of specific intent.

Here is what I posted: They protested at a funeral near here in Smyrna. My best friend and I loaded up in his truck to go, and pick up a couple friends along the way. But our wives wouldn't hear of it. I think they knew what might happen. And they were probably right. Honestly, I think we'd have just taken their signs and crap and trashed them (the signs and crap, not the breathing crap).

Now, had I said," My best friend and I loaded up in his truck to go down there and take their signs and trash them" THAT would have been intent.

The group here was mostly older morons with some teenage girls as a sideshow. I most certainly did not, nor would I ever, consider going there with the intent of physicaly attacking teenage girls. Or a bunch of way past middle aged idiots.

Once again, look into reading what people write, and not what you think they wrote. Because you did not read what I wrote. You read what you wanted to read into it.

Oh...well that makes all that much clearer.  It was just bravado.

My bad.

Of course stating what "honestly would have happened" isn't intent at all.

BTW, physically confronting and physically attacking are actually two different things....but your MENSA IQ already knew that.

But then again...older morons and teenage girls sound just your speed.

I never said ANYTHING would happen. See, there you go putting words where they were not. Read it EXACTLY as it was written. Can you do that? Can you read and comprehend simple English without adding your own coloring? The phrase "honestly would have happened" does not appear anywhere in my post. Does it? Answer honestly, if you can. You wrote that phrase, and took it out of context besides. Go ahead and admit it.

Yeah, I guess morons amuse me, I've replied to several of your posts.

Either it's bluster, and you are full of it, or you are not and IF your wives had let you go, you would have followed through on your statement.

So, are you full of it, or are you just capable of taking on older morons and teenage girls?  Assuming you can get past your wife :)

I'm done with him. He obviously is not honest with himself or anyone else. I'll take no part in continuing the hijack. I have nothing to say to him in private I wouldn't say here. I'm sure he'll continue the hijack, at least enough to get the last word in.

Probably the same thing as an honest, loving Muslim cleric thinks of the good, honest, salt-of-the-earth terrorists....

He'll probably tell you that having christian beliefs does not automatically make you a moral person. That those people live in a world of cognative dissonance, holding conflicting beliefs to love all of god's children and bringing misery to funerals. Therefore, they are not the Christians they believe themselves to be.

Fred Phelps, what can one say about Fred? Well, Fred seems to have forgotten the gospel of grace a long time ago and has switched over to a ministry consisting entirely of a grim preaching of the wrath of God towards sin, sans the equally important doctrine of the mercy of God extended to sinners. I can't help but imagine that Fred and the exceedingly sparse membership of his WBC church would benefit from a serious consideration of the phrase "There But For the Grace of God Go I" or that Christ Himself asked of the father "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do."  regarding those who were crucifying him.

Personally, I am trying hard - very hard - to be filled with pity towards Fred and his flock instead of wrath. I have already lost Christian brothers to IEDs in the war on terror, including one, Captain Ernie Blanco, who himself was planning on marrying and going into the ministry when he left the military. To this day I cannot remember meeting a more godly, upstanding, and zealous proponent of the Good News. His witness has been confirmed in the fact that all of the guys I have met who served in his unit, Christian and non-Christian were utterly devestated when he was killed, all of them had some memory of him that spoke of his kindness, selflessness, courage, and willingness to act as a servant leader. For Fred to conclude that men like Ernie are condemned to hell merely for their honorable service, indicates that he does not in fact understand salvation at all. I don't know what I would do if he ever showed up at a funeral I was conducting, but may God give me strength to pray and witness even to the hardened in heart in that moment, rather than repaying evil for evil with a swift kick in the rear.

All of this goes to show that ministers need an overseeing body, no good ever ultimately comes of absolute ministerial independency.

Now, now Ripsnort, you wouldn't be comparing a bunch of placard waving numbskulls to suicide bombers would you?

The pastor in that video is like a characature of a moron. Quite funny really. It's a shame he has to vent his spleen around people trying to have a private moment of mourning. Isn't there a radio show he could do? Then again Rush Limburgh or whatever his name has that market cornered.

Seagoon - so it would seem religious leaders abusing their power for self-aggrandisement is not something limited to any one faith. It also seems that this chap is pretty well known in the States.
