Re: Westboro Baptist Church Gets Tires Slashed, Locals Refuse To Perform Repairs

From a Christian perspective, I don't know anyone in real life or from the Christian forums I frequent who supports their view. I can identify the message they're trying to give but IMO they are going about it completely the wrong way and instead of preaching a message of love, peace and tolerance they give off an aura of hate. I've got no doubts their elders know more about the Bible than I but I could never agree with their actions which I feel are just short of terrorism.

That said, I don't agree with vigilante against them. Denying them service because of their views.....what if service was denied tio someone because they were actively pro-gay rights?

This sort of thing will give them more ammuniton and will probably make them 'fight' harder.

As has been previously mentioned they need to be ignored. They trade in shock value - cutting off their supply of attention will be far more effective.
