If scientists actually left their basements for a moment and took a good look around, they would learn that the earth is flat, through empiricism. If scientists would try praying to Jesus Christ over their Parkison’s disease, rather than faking the symptoms, they would realize that Heliocentrism is utter nonsense. … Empiricism would also lead them to see that bats are birds, other than their reproduction mechanisms (Leviticus 11:19).

It’s becoming more and more difficult to sort the real extremists from the parodies.

This one’s more Landover than Westboro Baptist.

I think.

Same with the other blog. Odd that he seemed to want to own his hate, he just hated when anyone else said he hated gays. It was rather funny how he kept running around the issue, yes, but no, there’s good hate, but the liberal…. and making the idea that a god should be love out to be completely worthless. Reading the comments on the second blog was certainly eye-opening.

.

You can probably throw in the World Congress of Families into that general umbrella and Don Schmierer and Howard Ahmanson Jr have both been signatories to some of the WCF letter/declaration. The WCF was founded in 1997 by Allan Carlson and is a project of The Howard Center for Family, Religion & Society in Rockford, Illinois (www.profam.org). Seems there was a connection between the Watchmen on the Wall and the WCF in Riga, Latvia, along with “American activist Scott Lively, president of Defend The Family International.” Both Schmierer and Lively signed the WCF letter on Defense of Marriage in Romania early in 2008.

So why doesn’t WCF show the love for Lively as well?
