But so too is the God of Abraham. It is arguably the greatest monster in human history. As much as I hate Phelps, I hate his God more. because what Phelps says is actually the word of God (jerk) The truth is, God does hate us, and he plans to make us suffer for the pleasure of people like Phelps. Go ahead, read the bible for your self. Find me 1 thing that indeicates that God loves you. you wont. It is not Phelp's fault, he'ds just the tired old mouth piece - the creature who made the rules is the one you should scorn. Any Gay person who worships this diety is an idiot, it will never accept you, it will try and kill not only your body but your soul as well. my advice, stay well away from this east and its foot soldiers, and if a pentecostal walks up to you in the street and askes you to invite jesus into your heart. stab them!

It took a tremendous amount of courage for him to play such a controversial role and I admire him for it. I am saddened at the loss of a great young talent. May he rest in peace and may God bless and comfort his family in their time of sorrow. Heath Ledgers role in Brokeback Mountain was just that, a movie role.

People filled with hate can not call themselves "christians". That has nothing to do with CHRISTianity... It has nothing to do with the words and the love of Jesus, whose followers we shouwld be. Heath is in our prayers and with the angels now. We love and miss you forever, dear angel, untill the day when we'll meet again up there in heaven... Rest in peace... Forever in our hearts...

I would just like to say, on behalf of Topeka, as a 20 year old Christian homosexual male, that Kansas, specifically Topeka, does not condone any of the behaviors of this extremist group. I, too, find it repulsive that they would protest at Heath Ledger's funeral, or any funeral for that matter. My deepest apologies to anyone who is upset by their actions.

Flippin' heck. What sort of God are they conceptualizing? Personally, I gave up on the whole God idea about the time of the Asian Tsunami and 200,000 dead, and I can't understand how anyone else can reconcile that with the concept of a loving God. Sorry Christians. I really do hope the Westboro Baptists do turn up in Perth. It would be cathartic for all concerned. I don't think even Phelps' lawyer kids could save him from the WA 'justice system' (using the quotation marks advisedly). Phelps hates *shoppers*? Flippin’ heck.

The guys in the movie didnt say ,"come on be gay its great it makes your life so much easier, so join me in this lifestyle" .If anything it showed how difficult being gay is for some people and what a challenge it can be for some people to accept and come to terms with. And how the character in the movie hid his true self from his family and even tried to deny it to himself and basically ended up very lonely because of others and his own prejudices I dont see how that is promoting anything . It basically just said , this guy is gay and this is how he chose to handle it and this is how it turned out for him..Thats like saying the movie Ray promotes blindness. another thing is that they say this movie promoted being gay which is so untrue.

The only one that can judge is God . the fact that these people call themselves christians is sickening to me. For one thing fag is a very hateful word and most christians would not use that word. Please do not judge all of us christians from what these idiots are doing. I will be praying for Heaths family because they have lost someone very special, but I will also pray for the wbc crazies because obviously they have too much hate in their hearts and if anyone is going to hell it will be them.

A month ago a Phelps was picketing outside my church that said, "Thank God for dead shoppers". There had been a severe storm and several bad pile-ups and an associated death. From what I can tell, they hate shoppers, soldiers, gays, Sweden, Canada, the United States, etc. These people are evil media whores. And they won't go where they will ACTUALLY be harmed. I've always been amazed at HOW exacting they are in determining the safety of the crowd at the funeral that they will be protesting. Believe me, they threatened to protest the funeral of a popular gay HS student here who was to have his funeral in a local, rough, small town. Some over-sized, rough, cavemen-type-men, who are frends of the family, let the Phelps know *^&%#&*%...(Phelps could very well have been hurt if he had protested at THAT funeral.) The Phelp hate group ALWAYS assess the group and act accordingly. They are cold-hearted, meticulous, servers of Satan. I live in Topeka.

Those who protest the loudest are usually the one who have something to hide. Phelps might turn out to be history's biggest self-loathing gay.
