I could almost hear the collective sighs and laughter from the topic title alone.
So I hear an awful lot of Christians recently doing what they can to defend their religion from the stain they believe the Westboro crowd to be. But besides some passages about being humble, which the Westboro church certainly is not, is their message really not so biblical?
I mean, I see a whole lot of passages in the bible about killing sinners, including homosexuals. I also see quite a few references to god allowing foreign armies to defeat Israel due to it's rebellion against the lord's law, which is the general reasoning behind the Westboro protests at military funerals. If the Westboro church goers really aren't "true Christians", then why does their philosophy seem to match with what the bible says?
Is it just me or do the Westboro crowd represent the bible more accurately than others?
Thoughts?
