    Funnily enough, the whole premise of the Religion section is to debate that.

It's intellectually dishonest to say their views are not Christian or based on the Bible when they clearly are. It may not be the interpretations you know, but it is still an interpretation that is neither right nor wrong.
    Every part of "true" christianity has written that Homosexuality is wrong, so do i think.
    The problem is that, as I told you before, most moderate religious people pick and choose the things they like in the Bible to justify their views and anything too extreme or negative by today's standards is completely ignored or rationalized away. All the WBC is doing is picking and choosing the parts in the Bible that contain God's hateful nature and using that to justify their views.
    /point proven. I didn't know it would be "that" easy to make you say it - All along it actually was a pretty easy task. My point all along has been that Christianity in our society is changed and based upon peoples inhuman morals. You've just stated it. Thank you.
    This is EXACTLY why I'm for Muslims own old fashion religious ways. Because, what we know as normal today is merely a part of the religion which has been changed TO be accepted into society. Nothing is normal, everything is wrong and utterly disgusting. But it's hard to face it without using it as a arguement against someone.

    Yes and no. They know they're making a spectacle of themselves which garners the media's attention, meaning they get free publicity. However, my point is that they do not actively go around looking to buy any sort of promotional . They wait until the media comes to them and they usually do so without fail.

    This is exactly the type of attitude they feed upon. They enjoy being reviled and loathed by all these Christians claiming to espouse God's love while spouting off every insult they can think of at the WBC. It seems to be a highly effective strategy from what I can tell. (By the way, Shirley Phelps-Roper is Fred Phelps' daughter, not his wife)
    Never would i expect that sack of ringled shit to be hes daughter.
    Anyways. If they're trying to prove "how" double moral Christians are, then they're not doing a pretty good job. What you're stating is obviously not what the most people think about them

    Haha, I wasn't aware that was a problem. But I have to say, it's usually inevitable to exclude the Middle East as part of religious discussions, especially the Abrahamic faiths, since that's sort of where they originated. :P

    I don't want to misquote you, but it sounds like you're confirming what I just said. If that's the case, you should consult your post on Page 4 in which you say the WBC don't follow any parts of the Bible, a point which you just refuted.

    Nice straw-man, but I couldn't have proven any point you made since you didn't supply one to begin with.

    The premise of your argument is based on arbitrary reasoning that relies entirely on your own subjective viewpoints and generalizations. Population booms in this century have resulted in many esoteric sub-cultures being created where anyone can find like-minded people. Because of this, rather than being considered abnormal or anomalous, the sub-culture gains its own distinction in the immediate society. In our past, there was certainly not as many people and therefore a great lack of diversity in creating standards for that society, which most likely consisted of hunter-gatherer tribes. This lack of diversity made it much easier for everyone to come to agreements in this aspect since everyone shared the same histories and experiences.

    Even when society was run based on holy books, heretics still existed. The only difference is that now those who do not follow the explicit word of the Bible or other holy book are not put to death for their actions. Since you've taken an interest in past Muslim anthropology, there still exists few Muslim sects who remain stoic in their beliefs and can still be witnessed practicing the act of stoning heretics and blasphemers to death by burying half their body, covering their head with a fabric, and village males grabbing hand-sized stones to throw at them, usually resulting in an excruciating death due to traumatic head injuries. A few months ago, a young woman was stoned to death for adultery which caused much outrage by human rights activists. In certain African colonies, Christian ideologies have resulted in the systematic abuse and murder of mostly women for what they believe to be dark magic or witchcraft. The women are forced out of the villages and another group of males will start a fire so that the rest of the villagers can join in forcing the women into the fire as they let out blood-curdling screams from the pain until they eventually pass out from hypovolemic shock and die while their body is consumed by the flames.

    The credibility of holy texts has been slowly eroded away in time as we improve our understanding of our world and ourselves, and in return, we no longer require the need to cling to Bronze-age ideologies and mythology. We no longer believe that sick people are being punished by God because we now understand the Germ Theory of Disease and the effects of poor hygiene. We no longer believe earthquakes are God's punishment since we now understand that they happen because we live on a relatively young planet whose core is still active which causes tectonic plates to shift. The fact that ideologies such as these are not as widespread in modern society as before should be proof enough of how ineffective they were.

    Fred Phelps is around 86 years old or so. He has 13 children and I believe all but 4 of them are lawyers in their family run law firm. Three of his kids managed to escape early on and I believe one daughter has defected from the church as an adult.

    You can't really expect some deep analytical opinion of them from some anonymous on-looker so of course their reaction is much more simple. I can offer a somewhat closer look into their actions because I'm more familiar with them than others would be and I'm not religious so it's easier for me to remain objective when speaking about them.

    Concision is not a useful skill to employ in debate where one's position can be easily distorted if there's no clarity. We could always move the debate to Twitter if this is going to be a recurring problem.

    I hope that was brief enough to keep you engaged.

    It was actually.

    But I won't/don't respond to people who write more than i feel my time is worth on reading it.

    Guessing other people do that too.
