Fallen Madras, Oregon soldier, Thomas Tucker who was only 25 years old when Iraqi insurgent radicals abducted him and brutally tortured, murdered and multilated his body is about to face yet another outrageous indignity from the disgusting Kansas Westboro Baptist cult church of Rev. Fred Phelps. His cult of disgusting antiGay funeral protestors intend to protest at the funeral of this very nice and well loved Oregon soldier, and only add to the deep grief of his family, hometown and state.
The personality cult church of Rev. Phelps have a very distorted view of theology. The ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were not destroyed because of the sin of homosexuality. The people in these cities were brutal savages who would rape travelers and conquests as a form of primitive display of subjugation of a defeated opponent. This primitive and brutal practice of raping a conquered person was a disgustingly violent form of humiliation. Of course , Rev. Phelps and his half-witted followers know nothing of the history of this violent practice from the decadent and brutal cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, and instead erect a false theology where the deaths of American soldiers are somehow the divine retribution of God for allowing homosexuality. This is a warped and disturbed theology of the very worst variety.
Lot pleaded with God to spare these two wicked and violent cities if only a few good men could be found. When two angels disguised as strangers came to warn Lot and his family to leave the cities, a crowd of violent men gathered to demand to rape and violate the strangers as a form of subjugation. Lot offered the crowd his two own daughters to rape or sexually violate if only these two strangers would be left alone. The crowd refused Lot's offer, but it proved his intense righteousness and respect for kindness to strangers and proved him to be the man of God that God knew that he was. Lot had not known that the strangers were angels when they came to his door.
The Westboro Baptist Church, which is independent of any major Baptist affiliation, is merely the personality cult product of Phelps and his radical followers. And on the human garbage scale, both members of the Westboro Baptist Church and Al Qaeda have a little too much in common. Both share a deeply disturbed sense of religion that praises violence and death of American servicemen. On the Westboro Baptist audio message, a female member not only praises the deaths of American soldiers, but offers a ghoulish, "Thank God", comment praising IEDs(Improvised explosive devices) for taking American lives. This radical church is just one violent act away from being a full blown antiAmerican terrorist organization.
A group of patriotic bikers who are nearly all former veterans themselves plan to counter protest this radical religious group. Instead of being the respectful display of sorrow of this Oregon town, the personality cult of Rev. Phelps only promises to make this event a political hot potato, and could even invite a very angry response from some outraged Oregonians in this town who are deeply saddened by the brutal death of this very nice young man whose life offered so much promise.
Of all the tasteless events of the Westboro Baptist Church, this planned protest is perhaps the most disgusting and vile yet. Rev. Phelps and his screwball followers will be hardly welcome in this small Oregon town.
