        Hmmm... I see I am not the only who appreciates the irony in this!

        Perhaps God got tired of these people attaching his name to their hate?

        Or it could be an attempt at insurance fraud!

            Karma is a wonderful thing. That being said, and as sick as it makes me to say this, I'm glad no one was hurt in the blaze. Oh, I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.

                One hate-spewing "church" at least temporarily down; but unfortunately, too many will draw renewed resolve from the event.

                The idea is to make the possibility of singling out gays for persecution based on "god's word" a thing of the past.

                Everywhere, which means not only in the US. I'm thinking about the current episcopalian "crisis" regarding the admission of self-admitted gay pastors into the flock: another example of institutionalized homophobia.

                For one thing.

                Gee, that's too bad. /sarcasm (MAJOR sarcasm!)

                The Wrath of God perhaps? If ever there was a group of people who deserved smiting...

                Unfortunately only their church burned not their ideology. Hate is a wonderful thing, it unites. this has not been lost on the likes of Hagee and Parsley either and many of the leaders of organized religion worldwide.

                It's so hard to know how to feel about this story. On the one hand I am absolutely thrilled. These folks really, really deserve non-corporal bad things happening to them. I get that they want to scream & yell mean things about homosexuals, but to do it at a funeral is reprehensible. The thing is, if it was arson I'll be bummed as that will only invigorate their efforts. But if it was just their own mistake - someone left a cigarette burning - then I'd be okay with that. I am happy that they have some difficulty ahead of them, especially financial, but at the same time I'm a little sick that I'm even a tiny bit happy. I'd hope that somewhere they'd gain some perspective from this event, but also know that, as a gay person, they'd likely shoot me on the spot if they had a weapon available. *shakes head* This is a tough one...

                I'm pretty sure that if god had any idea about half the stuff that went on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up.

                There's one thing about this story I'm not clear about. What did the neighbor lady mean when she said Phelps wants her land and had tried to buy it from her and suspect the fire was a warning to sell? Was the church on her land? Can anyone elaborate?

                God loves all his creatures not just some that think he only loves Christians.

                Maybe God is sending a message to chill on the hate speech towards his beloved ones that happen to love the same sex as they are?

                  ‘There is evidence that hatred of our religion was the motivation, in part at least’

                  No Ma’am, I think they may hate your use of your religion to spread such hate
