Quote:It's not just Westboro though.  It's Faithful Word too.  And it's easy to say "NOT Christian".  Just as it is easy to say "NOT Muslim".  It's a no true Scotsman fallacy either way.  I saw an absolutely disgusting response from Steven Anderson to the Orlando Shootings.  There's plenty more like him too.  

I have not heard of Faithful Word and have no idea who Steven Anderson is.

 

I'm sure there are plenty of "Christian" groups who are just as freaky as WBC, only WBC doesn't have a problem with being very vocal about their beliefs so that's why I referred to them. Fanatics and extremists, no matter the group, are very disruptive and can be a serious problem as we keep seeing with these radical Islamists who keep killing groups and people they disagree with.

 

It kills me to even say this because I truly loathe them, but as hateful as WBC is at least they're not killing people. They may be spewing hate and discontent but they're not killing people- yet.
