I love how the shirt says God hates America. God is love.

i find it funny that they claim to be christians, but they preach against what their savior, Jesus Christ taught. i wonder what their views on Jesus are?

I'm sure they'd say neither of you understand what the Bible preaches. You can't make logical arguments against irrational people, it just doesn't work.

As the saying goes, 'Don't argue with a fool, or soon people won't be able tell the difference.' Or something like that.

EXCUSE ME? What's the problem with Home Schoolers Sir?

My oldest was a High School First Team All Stater in both Basketball and Football and had his choice of Scholarships to a DII.

My second oldest Son is on Academic Scholarship at TAMU, played all sports through High School - I don't think he's labled a DORK !

I won't even go there with the success of my grduating Senior daugther.

Before you start referring to Home Schoolers as Freaks, LOOK IN THE MIRROR....

I'd like to see how your children get referred to.



I'd be willing to bet the Westboro freaks fall under the category of:

1. Home-schooled dorks (you know, the freaks most kids want to beat up)
2. People who never got any attention growing up and now they're the "LOOK AT ME, SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK AT ME! I GO AGAINST THE GRAIN BECAUSE NO ONE CARES ABOUT ME AND I NEED TO MAKE A STATEMENT AND GET ATTENTION!!!" type.
3. Complete nut who's easily influenced and manipulated (aka weak minded)

No, you really can't. The only way to really deal with people like that is to ask them about the other illogical "rules" the bible makes. Like the one about women unclean for 7 days because they are having their menstrual cycle, and anyone that sits where she does is unclean by proxy.

Ah, yes. The "Letter to Dr. Laura"

Dear Dr. Laura:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your radio show, and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advise from you, however, regarding some of the specific Bible laws and how
to follow them.

a)When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

b)I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her? She's 18 and starting University. Will the slave buyer continue to pay for her education by law ?

c)I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

d)Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify?
......Why can't I own Canadians?

e)I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should this be a neighborhood improvement project ?

f)A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an
abomination (Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

g)Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here? Would contact lenses help ?

h)Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?

i)I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

j)My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev.24:10-16) Couldn't
we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.
