Church Protesting San Diego Comic-Con For "Idol Worship"

[WhiteTigerShiro]

try this next time you see them:
*Vid Snipped*

As much as I hate the WBC, I think the best thing we can do is ignore them, or, if you must, laugh at them as you pass. But to put put on a counter-protest is putting more work into these guys than they deserve.

It's not work if you're having a blast doing it.

 

[Zing]

Someone take a cardboard cut-out of Superman and put it next to them and start worshiping it.

 

[Hassao]

Ugh, more Christians making the rest of us look bad.

Seriously, it irritates me how a couple random churches do stupid crap like this and make the majority of us Christians look like ignorant and over-sensitive morons. But I think what irritates me more is how everyone seems to see this and think it represents the majority of Christians...

It doesn't.

I here ya. But then again, I don't think as many Christians (in America at least) are still like this to gay people.

Yes for the most part, but where I live if you are not a strait Christian you will be bashed hard by a lot of people. Coming from an atheist with several bi and gay friends of both genders.

 

[grimsprice]

I'm totally going to mess with these people when I'm there

How so?

You should get a big sign of batman and picket them saying...

"he forgives you!"

(And you should tell me where you got your avatar)

And in other news, scientific studies have concluded that the batshit crazy members of Westboro Baptist Church are complete attention whores who have completely missed the concept of religion.

I hope all the cosplayers kick the crap out of them.

 

[Raykuza]

You haven't prayed to the Dark Knight? What kind of weirdo are you?

Our Batman
Who art in Gotham
Hallowed be thy utility belt
Thy Batcave come
Thy justice be done
In Metropolis
As it is in Gotham
Give us this night
Our nightly Batarang
And don't forgive the Joker's debts
As we certainly won't either
And lead us not into Arkham
And deliver us from crime
For thine is the Batcave
And the ass kicking
And terror
Forever and ever
AMEN

 

[Jing the Bandit]

Idol worship?
Better get rid of that Batman-symbol-on-a-crucifix, then.

 

[bjj hero]

OT: Four different groups have pledged legal support and funds to anyone who flat out kill Fred Phelps, the leader of the WBC. Not saying you'll win the court case, but they'll have your back. Just leaving this out there.

Promise me Johnny Cochran and we can start negotiations

i know a guy who is part of this club of people never heard much about them
they are basically antiprotestors who protest protestors
they put on Guy Fawkes masks and wreck havok on the protests of Homosexuals, Jews, superman
and they have crossed paths with these nutjobs on occasion

The irony that they use the mask of a christian extremist and a convicted religious terrorist.

Whats the difference between Westborough Baptist Church members and most comic book fans? The Comic book fan is aware that his favourite read is a work of fiction.

Take the bible as an outline of history and up to the New Testament its pretty damn accurate.

I'm not going to derail the thread with this so I'll leave it with I disagree with you.

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

Please don't call this group of hate filled inbred psychopathic cultists a church. They don't deserve the title.

If you guys haven't seen this check it out, and see how long you can keep your cool about it and not explode with rage! It's a fun little game.

I can't even make it past the forty second mark. Good god, they got KIDS going along with this blight on humanity.

 

[The_Deleted]

I'd be more inclined to be offended by the idolisation of modern celebrity culture.
Seriously, this is what the Bible was talking about when it mentioned false idols, all these pissant Kardashians, Jordans and Pratts and X Factor fucktards.
Superman has made people happy for decades... what has modern celebrity culture given people but an expectation of getting something for nothing and being worshipped for it?

 

[AgentNein]

Ahh, The Westboro Baptist Church; the internet trolls of real life.

 

[Buccura]

I wonder if these people will ever protest a furry convention.

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

TBF, I think denoting the Westboro Baptist Church as "Christian", "Religion" or a "Church" is like calling Timothy Langdell a "Games Creator".

Whatever they have left in common with the original, they're just mocking it now.

 

[Izakflashman]

Wow. I'm a christian and everything but that image alone offends me. Sorry world on their behalf, don't hold it against us. Don't let a few douche bags bring the rest of us down.

 

[Wintermoot]

I think the church should learn that not everyone wants to be with a religion

 

[Chaossebba]

A group of people should just get like a lifesized superhero statue or something, put it out where the Westboro Baptists can see it and start chanting around it just to annoy them even further.

 

[Danallighieri]

Rise up! Rise up fellow nerds! Fight back against these terribly annoying wastes of space for giving christianity a bad name! Seriously though, they are rather awful

 

[Cortheya]

They're the 4chan of the religious world.

 

[Nouw]

Hahaha I can't believe these idiots havent been killed yet.

*Cocks gun. What do you mean?

What about reading books? Watching Movies? Or doing anything else?
