Westboro Baptist Church

I was recently listening to episode 15 of Political Inversion with Paul Tevis. He interviewed Shirely Phelps Roper from the Westboro Baptist Church. The Westboro Baptist Church, as some of you have may, has gained a lot of media attention in the past few years as being an organization that has been propogating a copious amount of hate. If you are not convinced that this organization is not as I call it, I urge you to listen to Episode 15 of Political Inversion.

I have been introduced to this organization many times, whether it be through the media, or through school. Before now, I have not realized the magnitude of their actions. I struggle to comprehend how an organization that claims to stand for such a divine being, dares to propogate so much hate. I am not going to turn this into a discussion about religion, but I’m not exactly sure how they can interpret The Bible in such a way. It is beyond me.

In this interview, Shirely Phelps Roper claims that:

“Osama bin Laden is an instrument of God, and those planes on 9/11 were like juggernauts coming down from heaven sent to punish the American people.”

Additionally, they have also been propogating hate all over the internet with websites such as:

I’m sorry, but people like this should have no right to voice their opinion in our world. These people are absoloutely dispicable. In the interview, several times, she condemned the host to hell, simply because he said that he was a practicing Catholic.

“YOU ARE GOING TO HELL. PERIOD.”

Please take the time to listen to Political Inversion and you will hear exactly what I mean.
