That Didn't Take Long, Part II...

Extremism is a fucking poison. Muslim extremism, Jewish extremism, Christian extremism, whatever...Fundamentalism breeds hatred.

Case in point: Fred "God Hates Fags" Phelps is "thanking God" again for the tsunami disaster in Asia...

Last time, he was glad that 2,000 homosexual-loving Swedes were dead. Now, he's thankful for the death of "another 3,000 Americans". You can probably figure out what that means...

Take a look at the lovely flyer Phelps' church is distributing...

On my last Phelps post, I received some flak for connecting Phelps to the likes of Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, and the rest of the Religious Right.

Lets look at their respective records on 9-11 and the tsunami, shall we?

Exhibit A: Phelps "thanks God" for 9-11 while Falwell and Robertson merely said "we deserved it"...

Exhibit B: Phelps says "God sent the Muslim planes" on 9-11, while Falwell and Robertson strongly insinuated that the terrorists were carrying out the will of God...

Exhibit C: Phelps is "thanking God" for the tsunami. Falwell, Robertson, and most of the Religious Right are silent and, in fact, seem very disinterested in paying the disaster any mind at all.

Doesn't seem like that much of a stretch, does it?
