And They’ll Know We Are Christians By Our…? (part 2)

Let me start off by saying that these people are not Christian. Anyone who acts on hatred like this group is clearly against the love that Jesus taught.
As you probably know, the actor Heath Ledger passed away yesterday unexpectedly. He was a great actor, a daddy, and apparently a really good guy. Well, because he played a gay cowboy in Brokeback Mountain, the Westboro Baptist “Church” in Kansas is going to be picketing at his funeral. This is the group that thinks that if you are gay, you are going to Hell. This picture is a flyer that is going around promoting this (click to enlarge).
Does this make anyone else’s blood boil? How can you claim to be a church of the Christian faith, while at the same time judging someone so harshly to the point of condemning them to hell? Jesus said to love everyone- those who love you and those you don’t. How do they feel about people who have been divorced? Alcoholics? Anyone else who has ever sinned?
To any non-Christians out there, please see this as some wackos claiming to be something they are clearly not.
And Heath, we’ll miss you.

couldn’t agree with you more man. there’s nothing more frustrating than people who call themselves christians and yet act so opposite of who Christ really is. In the end I think judgment will be worse for these folks who made it their business to condemn others to hell.
