I just wrote a poem about you. And it isn't flattering.

I can't even get angry about this, since it's so stupid.
For those who won't read the article, basically a hate group hiding behind Christianity that says that the Virgina Tech shooting were an act of God against evil sinners.
Some quotes from the members of the Westboro Baptist Church:
-“The evidence is [the students who were killed] were not Christian. God does not do that to his servants,” Phelps-Roper said. “You don’t need to look any further for evidence those people are in hell.”
-Cho Seung-Hui, the Virginia Tech student responsible for the killings who took his own life after the shootings, was sent by God to punish those he killed, and America as a whole, for moral decline, said Phelps-Roper, while adding that she believes Cho is also in hell for violating God’s commandment to not kill.
“He is in hell,” Phelps-Roper said. “But he was also fulfilling the word of God.”

And as Xale says, discuss!

"God does not do that to his servants"? Bullshit. How many Christians does he kill in the Old Testament? Also, even if none of the students killed were Christian, correlation doesn't equate to causation.

Why the eff would God condemn someone (Cho) for doing what He dictated them to do? Mind you, I think we all know what a hypocrite the portrayed Christian God is anyways. This isn't something new.

I really feel sorry for the Christian God. I bet He's a really nice guy, but all the stupid Christians like to pin things on Him, tarnishing His name. I feel for Him.

I'd so buy a Legend of Zelda Panda.

Yeah, I agree. God probably left in disgust a long time ago. I mean, "Cho was sent to punish" and yet, fufiling that, "he is now in Hell for killing people"? WTF, Mate?

BULL

COMPLETE BULL

God's WOrk indeed. All I see is people trying to put an answer in someones mouth because they dont have it themselves. They need to open they're eyes and look at the world around them. Most children these days aren't the sheltered innocent little things everyone believes them to be.

Crix's two cents ><
Come with me if you want to see anything worth while, my child
I'll show you anything and everything
Go to heaven for the weather
But to hell to sell your soul
I'll show you where mine went so long ago

lol at relevance to children. The people saying this are part of a 'church', not little 5-year olds. 5 year olds are too smart for that junk man.

I know that. Buts its true though. When I listen to the Christmas mass stories (Yes I go to church! Once a year only tho...) they're all talking about how we must do god's will or we'll be sent to hell.

In my opinion we're in hell. Its called Reality.

And here I was, thinking it was outside of Jerusalem. Silly me.

And Chrissy, ever read the bible? Because what Jesus says is often very different than what people do.

(Of, and I don't like Catholicism, but that's beside the point.)
