While I appreciate the sentiment, the Westboro Baptist Church seems to not understand that God punishes us with Nickelback. And Creed.
So, close, but no cigar which, judging by the people who smoke them, is the devil’s penis.

Do not enable the devil’s penis.
Commandment 4, right?
Hedonistic to the max! Bogus, dude!
Same old song and dance all around, eh?
I’ll bet George Tierney of Greenville, South Carolina smokes cigars.Oops.
In the name of George Tierney’s father! STOP the sex hate!Oh just kidding.
Actually it’s Condiment 4, a salacious mix of Dijon mustard and Outre relish from the garden. No. Mayo. Whatsoever!
Okay it’s a bit warm in the People’s Republic of Taxachusetts.
Spaghetti Lee saw the same thing I did: who the heck uses “to the max” anymore?
Hang on a second.
I gotta look up ‘condign’…
It’s mourning in America!
God hates no one…but I won’t be surprised to learn he’s a little fed up with Westboro Baptist’s little schtick.
I’ll take a few hundred lightning strikes over that shit every day of the week…
Hell bound, Hedonistic to the max
You stand before god in your dockers slacks
Your rebellious carcass cries “what is our sin”
Man, you don’t know the trouble that Nickleback’s in
God hating fools do their schtick
Like Morey Amsterdam or that Rose Marie chick
You’ll see! His condign wrath will strike these teens
Um, whatever the hell it is ‘condign’ means
While you seek comfort in frivolities
God’s more concerned with your anal qualities
Hell bound, Hedonistic to the max
It’s all your fault, yours and Nickleback’s
spot on comment -
This church has less that 20 families, less than 35 members – and they get so much free PR you would have thought they would grow in size – it says something good that they have not grown.
In every few million folks it seems there is a quota of nuts – be they agnostics that call themselves “atheists” and insist on getting in your face, or they call themselves “Christian” and insist in getting in your face, or they are a GOP congressman from Miami who insists there are 80 Dem communists in the House and insists on getting in their face, or they are a racist Israeli MP whose solution to unemployment is a fenced camp for those of the wrong color, or they are – good grief – the list goes on into every country and every version of a righteous reason for getting in your face.
My fellow man can be very tiring – we really need enforced explicit tough civil rights/human rights laws across the globe.
Yet the bigger threat is corporate and rich control of ones life – as South America – esp. Brazil has found – 400 years of good race relations do not make for economic happiness – it was only when they finally got rid of at least some of the Spanish gift of control by the rich and corporate with the gov helping the rich and corporate that the economy and the life bloomed – indeed less wealth inequality in just the last few decades has meant one heck of a boom.
[golf clap]
Then there are douchebags who have a problem with atheists and insist on getting in your face.
Googling “hell bound hedonistic to the max” turns up lots of old Westboro crapola. The Phelps family seems quite fond of that phrase.
By the way, the quickest way to make the Phelpses pack up and leave town is to arrange for their happily-apostate son and brother Nate Phelps to show up. They don’t dare face him in any fora they don’t utterly control.
Those Westboro’ers are a bunch of fuckin’ pussies.
I suggest they mosh-pit-picket Tool.
The Foos, of course, fight Westboro fire with mockery.
The good news is that Nickleback will done by 6 p.m. after a grueling 45 minutes of dodging bottles….

I need a sign and my marchin’ boots
“God doesn’t care about gays anymore than he cares for the rest of you…he does agree that Nickelback sucks.”
and nickelbacks.
If they’d try picketing ICP I’d be more impressed.
Nickleback and Creed are in my Tehbow column, I almost want to see what it’s about but….nah…….
Here Westboro; pick on something that’s worth a f*ck. We fink you freeky:

Nope, sorry, but even being picketed by the Westboro Baptist Church jackasses is going to make me like you Nickleback, not even if they managed to shut your concert down.
you have to read the top paragraph in the superstock funny car drag racing na na nationals voice, and the second paragraph in a voice that sounds like what chickens would sound like if they could talk and had received divinity homily training.
protesting nickelbacks is one of their more least objectionable stunts.
I had the pleasure of encountering these jackholes last summer in Edmond, OK, at the funeral of a soldier killed in Afghanistan. Four Westboro members (adult male, three junior-high-age boys), heavily protected by local police, stood around with signs for fifteen minutes and left. Maybe 3000 there to support the soldier’s family. Still, these clowns made the TV news, which was their goal all along.
God don’t hate the Muslims,
God don’t hate the Jews,
God don’t hate the Christians,
but we all give God the blues…
I suspect the writer of that piece may be suffering from the clap.
Money just doesn’t go very far. Used to be you sent a kid to college and you might get a quarterback. Now it’s only a nickle!
They did inspire a great True Blood joke, though–in the opening credits, there’s a church sign that reads “God hates fangs.” If it weren’t so open to misinterpretation, I’d get that printed on a T-shirt.
It seems that professional goat blower Dan Riehl of BrietFart.com was so impressed by George Tierney, Jr.’s fame that he wants to immulate it.
Yes, but what I hear is that Dan is not her type. She likes men.
Me three on that.
I sure am; most of ‘em are dead to me now that I’m older but no wiser.
Creaturette sez “WBC hymn fave- ‘Our Gawd Izza Hateful Gawd!!!’ To the tune of ‘Our Gawd Izza Owwesum Gawd’”
BTW, atheists don’t generally engage the ‘believerz’ in debates about the validity of the latter’s ideals. We don’t generally care what those folks believe. If they prefer dogma to reason, indoctrination to free thought, mythology to science- that’s their choice. Ignorance is correctable, idiocy, unfortunately, is not.
Brazil does not have 400 years of good race relations. In many ways their record is worse than our.
What, my hometown is now the nexus of evil in the world? And all because they allowed noted future Nobel Peace Prize winners to perform, live? Harummmmph, is what I say. Too bad the Westboroeans missed all the concerts of KC’s best band ever, the 4SKNNS. Seriously, those guys helped make me the pagan derelict I am today.
There is only one logical course of action.
I remember in 2010 when a few of their “people” showed up in Charleston, West Virginia to celebrate the deaths of those 25 coal miners, who died because God hates fags. We have family in that area, and they said over 200 counter-protesters showed up with signs of their own, mocking the Westboro Church and basically shutting them down.
One rumor going around, which my uncle swears to, was that a couple of the men from the church were there in a diner spouting that bullshit, and the sherriff’s deputy punched one of them right in the nose. I hope that’s true.
‘…the sheriff’s deputy punched one of them right in the nose. ….’
Psalms 118 14-16
‘[14] The LORD is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation.
[15] Hark, glad songs of victory
in the tents of the righteous:
“The right hand of the LORD does valiantly,
[16] the right hand of the LORD is exalted,
the right hand of the LORD does valiantly!”
Further signs of the coming apocolypse: Nickleback routinely sells out areans around the country.
And fuck WBC.
