A Kansas gay rights group on Sunday urged the gay community to respect the privacy of the “notoriously anti-LGBT” pastor if his health is declining.

Phelps and the members of his church have “harassed” the grieving families of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Kansans and others, Thomas Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas, said in a prepared statement.

But Witt added: “This is our moment as a community to rise above the sorrow, anger, and strife he sowed, and to show the world we are caring and compassionate people who respect the privacy and dignity of all.”

Pretty classy. I wonder how charitable I'd be in their shoes.

I don't really have a dog in the fight as I am not gay and yet don't have anything against them, but I do have a hard time deciphering the motive for the compassion. Is it true compassion or is it also a political move? I can see not sinking to his level and picketing the hospital and/or funeral when it comes, but you would never see or hear a compassionate word or action out of me.

Both, I'd say, true compassion and smart PR.

If there is a heaven the crackpot trailer trash preacher Phelps sure ain't going there when it is all said and done. Wasn't it in the bible to turn the other cheek?
Hmmm, a quick Google says twice, both Matthew 5:29 and Luke 6:29.

Maybe they will turn his church into a Planned Parenthood center. :) When the People's Temple church in SF burned down they put a nice big post office there. Always struck me as kinda weird that place was right next door to the original Fillmore Ballroom.

Yes, especially as I am the one who has to look in the mirror to shave. It would be difficult to shave properly while throwing up.

I believe that Paul said it all in one of his letters to the people in Corinth (1 Corinthians 13: 1-13 except that the King James translators took the Greek 'agape' to mean charity whereas the correct translation is a self effacing or unconditional love. Clever folks the Greeks they have four words for love.

anothers Feelings towards others is their choice for whatever reason,Valid or not.most men know hatred and what it does and still they choose to arm themselves with it and use it indiscrimatley.A man is known by his works and deeds to himself and if that said man can look in the mirror and feel right about his doings then he is a sanctified man.It is sad but this is how the majority of people live ther lives,Know there concept of life and how it should be lived is the one and only Way.

Not terribly long ago, some of us here would have used a thread like this to voice their discomfort with "the gay lifestyle" or "the homosexual agenda", even is it were only, "I don't approve of what Phelps does but.......".

Maybe, through the absurdity and downright evil of the WBC campaign, some of us have come to change our former attitude toward LGBT people or, if not our attitude, at least our willingness to give voice to our hurtful and intolerant position.

A lot of the waiters and bus boys upstairs were gay and, since we all worked for the same boss, we got to know one another and often went bar-hopping together after work.

One night a couple of Quantico Marines decided to give Herbie a ration of shit for, you know, being a fag. That queen just kicked the living shit out of both of them!

I saw Hot Tuna play a couple of times at AU (American University) back in the early '70s. Free concerts! Yipeee!

Oh yeah. Jack was called to play on Electric Ladyland by Hendrix. Voodoo Child was the tune. The best eyebrows in the business. ;)

I just remembered that it was at Mac's (or right outside) that Herbie took out those two jarheads.

Old Mac's Pub. Crusty old place. We always had our Cellar Door pregame activities there.

Yeah, I know, Pat! It has been around 45 since I've been to the Tombs!

As long as we're reminiscing, I saw the Shangri-las at the old Clearwater Florida Auditorium about 50 years ago when I was in High School.

Had a huge crush on Mary Weiss, their hot little blonde lead singer.

My second ever job was as a waiter in a basement beer pub in DC, near Georgetown University. There was a proper restaurant on the main floor. A lot of the waiters and bus boys upstairs were gay and, since we all worked for the same boss, we got to know one another and often went bar-hopping together after work.

One night a couple of Quantico Marines decided to give Herbie a ration of shit for, you know, being a fag. That queen just kicked the living shit out of both of them!

After that, I never thought being anti-gay was a particularly good idea. :D

John

I met a gay active military guy in Atlanta one weekend bar-hopping. His 'thing' was to come to town on Saturday night and stumble around the gay district, looking like easy pickings for the carloads of kids that would come into town looking for gays to jump and stomp. His MA skills were more than sufficient to "make his day".

Yeah, well see I got a problem with that too.;) There's a big beautiful black fig right outside my front door. I love just picking a fruit on my way in or out of the house when they're ripe. Deeeeelicious!

Mark 11:12-14

King James Version (KJV)

12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:

13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.

14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

That shows he hated a particular fig tree, that cruelly wasn't fruiting when he was hungry. Shows Jesus pissed and irrational. I am a bit surprised, didn't hear about this one in Sunday school, for some reason....

Well, Jesus was only human after all. :D

So the oft-quoted "God hates fags" statement is not true in the case of the Savior? He must be rolling in his tomb. Oh, wait---.

I'm not a big fan of modern pop music, but this gal Lorde has some spunk. (http://www.refinery29.com/2014/03/64942/westboro-baptist-lorde-protest-backfires?utm_source=outbrain&utm_medium=adsales&utm_campaign=comuv&utm_content=Westboro-Baptist-Churchs-Protest-of-Lord)

That song was inspired by Kansas City hall of fame third baseman George Brett. I'm sure that you wanted to know that. ;)

I read that in a headline but didn't read the whole article. I don't know who he is and I don't know anything about her except they play this song on the radio in the mornings when I'm driving to work.

Now I'm curious... Gotta go google. 😀
