"Fifty years ago Phelps would probably have been a grand poo-bah in the KKK offending black people. " forty years ago, fred phelps was in court fighting for the rights of black people, which was a good thing. he is continuing his civil rights work. and the way he's working now is much more effective.

"It turns out that Fred Phelps is not a Baptist Minister, his actions, however, do raise sympathy for the homosexual cause and at the same time bring into disrepute and ridicule the Christian faith. Further, according to Wikipedia and Kansas Voter View, Mr. Phelps is a registered Democrat who ran in five Kansas Democratic primaries including Senator and campaigned for the then Senator Al Go

i do not believe that the phelps clan is anti-gay at all. i believe they are pro-gay and that everything they do promotes the "gay agenda". their mission is to make all Christians who believe the Bible and oppose "gay rights" appear hate-filled, ignorant and evil. for a long time, i had assumed they were simply insane, but they are too well organized, too dedicated, and to

does anybody here know anything about a woman who calls herself a prophet, Lynn' da Threat? she's operating in Texas right about now, i think.

here's something that you might find interesting: so oprah wants everyone to believe that your thoughts create reality, right? has anybody noticed what her new book club selection is?

Mark, if all you've written here is true, then i agree with you. this is a cult. i really hope others come forward and tell their stories. having read about oddball groups all my life, it's strange to me that i've never heard of them. some of the things you've said about her really remind me of William Branham. thanks for the info.

no, Mark, i did not read your report - when i followed the link, it took me to the website. i didn't see a report.

if working for your state is like it is where i work, once you've put in your probation, you can get on an "inner mobility list" and change jobs fairly easily, if you want to. sounds like you've only got a week or so to go, you ought to stick it out and then transfer.

a thought about paddling: when i was a kid in school, i got paddled fairly frequently. most of the time, it wasn't much more than an inconveinance and an embarrassment. did it modify my behavior? only a little, it did nothing good for my attitude. the principle of my middle school was the only one i remember ever really hurting me with the paddle, he was a past master of the swat. and here i

i think it is worth pointing out that the phelps clan is well-known for lawsuits against it's critics, it is entirely possible that this post is on here for the purpose of stirring up "scandal"...for whatever my opinion might be worth, i would recommend deleting this thread.
