America's God
May 08, 2007 by
I recently received the most appalling and misguided bit of information I have ever seen. It seems that Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, KS. is blaming God for our soldiers being killed in Iraq. In their own words, "America bombed our church with an IED made by fag students. God is
killing Americans with Muslim IEDs."
They claim that "God himself is America's Terrorist." They are also picketing the funerals of our fallen soldiers and causing tremendous pain to the family of these heros. The whole idea behind this nonsense is that because we allow homosexuality in America, God has irreversibly cursed us.
I just have to ask - WHAT??
They recently tried to picket a funeral in a small community here in Tennessee, only to find that we do not approve of such things. Because of the added security and forces available to protect this soldier's family and friends, the picketers were forced to take their nonsense up the road, to the next town. We will not stand for our troops and their families to be mistreated and harassed!
I just have to wonder what God these people claim to love and serve. I wonder what God says it's ok to call people crude names and show so much hate for an individual. The use of the word "fag" is ever present in the communication from these people. It should never be acceptable to call people harsh names and to recruit hate, just because you don't particularly agree with that person's way of life. My bible says to "love your enemy" - Matt. 5:44.
And to state that God is the reason for our country's turmoil and for the deaths of these heroic men and women is just plain Wrong! God is NOT America's terrorist, although I do have to wonder about Westboro Baptist Church.

Secular science says that they have not seen any evidence that God exists. But the correct interpretation of Genesis would change that. Among the various theories that science currently has, evolution will probably be the first to fall.

It is difficult to believe that there are still people in the world who cling to the notion that the build-up to the War in Iraq was not systematically orchestrated by the Bush administration. The outright falsehoods committed to paper and memo and soundbyte are innumerable
