"Westboro Church protest meets students' mocking"

Reading this article has pretty much made my entire week (especially the bit about "God Hates Figs"). Hopefully it will have a similar effect on you.

The only disappointment was that the WBC protesters weren't even embarrassed about being relentlessly mocked.
 
DUDE. This made my week too. xD

It does kind of suck that they weren't embarrassed, but I think they do a good enough job of embarrassing themselves anyway.

On the eastern side of the quad, students who had been waiting for the group waved signs mocking the WBC’s trademark “God Hates Fags” poster. The signs bore slogans such as “God <3’s internet porn,” “God hates the new Facebook,” and “God hates dial-up.”

That was my favorite part.
 
Awesome.

If you read one of the comments, there was another WBC protest and the kids made a sponsorship; people pledged to give money to a GLBT charity for every 15 minutes the WBC was protesting. Oh the delicious irony.
 
Wonderful. 8D

"God hates the new Facebook"... that just about made my day~
 
i dunno watershed, not all churches are as fundie (aka shitbaggish) as WBC, they don't all deserve to be mocked

Honestly, the Westboro Baptist Church members don't deserve respect, acknowledgment, or even the attention given to them by spitting in their faces. It's nice to see people standing up and saying "hey fuck you", though.
 
I kinda wonder why Westboro Church gets mocked so much. Don't people realize that WBC effectively mocks itself?

I mean seriously. If I didn't know any better I would have thought it was a parody.
 
I don't see why it's funny. God does hate figs. :( and shrimp. and cotton/polyester blends. and women showing their legs off. and pigskin. and a host of other things.

no. everything deserves to be mocked.
 
Everything religious-wise? I'm atheist/rabid anti-religion too, but the theists who stay out of the way, don't try to witness, and follow the basic teachings of their religion are pretty cool (usually).

when I say everything, I mean everything, not just religion
 
yeah, pretty sure

I mean I read something once about the intimate details of the early private lives of the Phelps children.

it's horrifying

and not just because they're religious fundamentalists.
