    Don't even give him the time of day. He's not worth it.

    Actually if Phelps "timed" his statements before a major disaster and ALL of his specific prophesies came true....

    I pity those people. They probably need to be saved. And if some of them ARE saved, they need to get rid of thier hate.

    I would actually like to attend one of his services - seriously. Might be a very inter sting event.

    I would also be curious what his "beliefs" on non-Caucasians would be.

    The Scriptures attribute Sodom's destruction to God's judgement on their immorality.

    That's inspired of God testimony of what GOD did. Like punishing someone unto death, man lacks the ability to righteously know why God allowed something to happen and cannot rightly attribute it to specific sin.

    Absolutely.

    Homosexuality is EXCEEDINLY sinful in Gods eyes. But that does not in any way justify the actions of these degenerate hate mongers.

    Yes, we know that all homosexual sex acts are immoral. Just curious as to why when one person specifically said that Scripture attributed the destruction to their immorality(very general and all inclusive) that another person comes back and specifically points out homosexuality as opposed to adultery, beastiality, coveting, rape, stealing, etc,?

    It's told us for our learning and understanding, and as an example.

    God did not drive the Canaanites out in the days of Abraham, because the cup of their iniquity was not full.
