People of God?

 Members of the Westboro Baptist Church (3701 Southwest 12th Street, Topeka, KS 66604, 785-273-0325, http://www.godhatesfags.com/) and their "pastor", Fred Phelps, are some of the most disgusting people it has ever been my misfortune to hear about.
This den of vipers are the "Christians" responsible for protesting outside military funerals claiming that every dead soldier is God's punishment for America tolerating homosexuals. They hide behind the First Amendment while carrying signs with the slogans, "Thank God For Dead Soldiers", "God Hates Your Tears", "Thank God For 9/11", and "Thank God For IED's". It disgusts me that you use the First Amendment to spew your message of hatred the same way the KKK and Neo-Nazis do in this country. It angers me that you have the nerve to call yourselves Christians. And it fills me with rage that you torment and terrorize grieving families in the name of God! You maggots are no better than Muslim extremists or Nazi skin heads.

Let me point something out to these mental midgets: God does not hate people. God hates sin, ALL sin. God loves homosexuals but He hates their sin. God even loves dirt-bags that protest military funerals but He's probably not too crazy about them committing sin in His name. If you people were really Christians you would offer comfort and support to these families during their time of sorrow. You would show them the love and compassion that our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, showed for you when He died on the cross for your sins so that you wouldn't have to face the wrath of God. I have to wonder if any of the members of this "church" have ever challenged pastor Fred to show them where in the Bible the Lord says that he will smite the soldiers of a country that tolerates homosexuals? To have perverted and twisted the Word of God into this meaning Fred Phelps is either certifiably insane or possessed by Satan.

I want to remind pastor Fred and the members of his "church" that judgement and vengeance belongs to the Lord. Someday each member of this congregation will stand before God and have to answer the question, "Why did you torment and persecute your grieving brothers in My name?" And pastor Fred will have to answer the really tough question, "Why did you command others to torment and persecute their grieving brothers in My name?"

Of all the sins I will have to answer for myself I am glad that won't be two of them.

John Lennon Was Right!

Karma is a law in Hinduism which maintains that every act done, no matter how insignificant, will eventually return to the doer with equal impact. Good will be returned with good; evil with evil. For over two years now Brett Favre has been taking a massive dump all over two different football teams and their fans. Now we've witnessed the universe reward him with a huge crap sandwich served on moldy bread.

For the record I am a Cowboys fan so I've always disliked Favre. I might have even fealt a little sorry for him back in the 90's because my beloved Cowboys OWNED him. But after the way he's acted the last couple of years I don't just dislike him I despise him!

Let's review: In March of 2008 an aging Brett Favre said, "I know I can still play but I just don't want to." And with that he retired from the Green Bay Packers whose fans almost worshipped him as a god. So the Packers did what they had to do and moved on to life without Brett the Great. Then in July, just before the start of training camp, Favre decides he wants to play again but the Packers have already moved on and they don't want him back. Still owning Favre's rights the Packers decline his demand for an unconditional release so he can go play with the Vikings. Eventually the Packers traded the cry-baby to the NY Jets for a conditional fourth round pick. Farve got off to a pretty good start with the Jets leading them to an 8-3 record in their first eleven games. Then he proceeded to crap all over team number two by losing four of their last five games throwing eight interceptions and two touchdowns. Then at the end of the season he comes out and says, "My shoulder hurts." An MRI revealed a torn bicep in his right shoulder. An injury he insisted on playing through even though it was obviously hurting the team. Then in February 2009 after successfully ruining the Jets season Favre announces retirement number two. In April 2009 the Jets released Favre from his contract opening the door for this enormous turd to pop up again anywhere he wanted.

Flash forward two short months after his second tearful retirement: June 2009 Favre makes it known that he wouldn't mind playing again for the Vikings. This couldn't have been a bigger slap in the face to Packer fans. The Packers hate the Vikings as much as the Cowboys hate the Redskins and the Red Sox hate the Yankees. So in July the Vikings (aka Bi-Queens) offer Favre a one year deal at the league minimum. Well this wasn't good enough for his holiness so he told the Bi-Queens he'd just remain retired. Then at the end of training camp in August the Queens offer Pope Brett a two year, $25 million dollar deal. Well, now you're talking! Naturally The Great One accepted this offer as it was worthy of his greatness.

So his majesty goes on to lead the Bi-Queens to a 12-4 record in 2009 and the number two seed in the NFC playoffs. In the divisional round of the playoffs the Queens beat my beloved Cowboys 34-3 with Favre rubbing salt in the wound by throwing a meaningless touchdown with less than two minutes left to play in the game. Just another example of this douche-bag padding his stats and going for personal glory. So here we have the great Brett Favre, a legend in his own mind, facing off against the New Orleans Saints for the right to go to Super Bowl XLIV (that's 44 for those Roman-numerically challenged). And finally this is where the Karmic powers finally take notice of this jerks actions over the last two years and give him a massive dose of the same crap he's been spewing forth all over the rest of the world. Little Brett throws an interception deep in Saints territory with just seconds left in regulation sending the game into over-time. Where Karma leads the Saints down the field for a game winning field goal to send Brett home to cry into his pile of money and begin formulating ways he can screw Minnesota and play for yet another team next year.

I hope this festering waste of flesh realizes that he got off easy by only losing a ball game. Personally I was hoping for a broken leg a' la Joe Theismann. Is wishing for something that didn't happen count as bad Karma?
