When fred phelps croaks, will there be a quiet & dignified funeral?

[Philosoraptor]

Will it be held in private, with no visitors or outsiders allowed? Will it be dignified and full of grace and majesty? Will fred phelp's funeral have protesters screaming hateful things and the press crawling all over it? Will his grave have a plastic piss-guard all around it?

Will fred's faith filled followers carry on this grand tradition of protesting at funerals, carrying signs that say 'God hates fags', to every funeral they can find? Or will this cute little hobby die and rot in the grave like fred?

Would you go to fred's funeral? What would YOU do to commemorate fred's passing on into hell?

1. I'm thinking that's gonna be one muddy grave. n/t

[LeftCoast]

2. I hope I can be there to make it a special day for his family

:party: like its Mardi Gras!

[Dogmudgeon]

3. Oooh, can we have flashers, and drunks pissing on the grave?

Please?

--p!

[LeftCoast]

4. Hey! It wouldn't be a party without them, now would it?

:evilgrin:

5. We should be glad about him.

His theology is similar to that of Pat Robertson, Jerry Farewell etc.

The only difference between him and the religious right is that he sets it up to collide with Nationalism. He thus achieves a split in the right-wings worldview and exposes their hypocrisy.

edit: typo.

6. protest with signs saying

GOD HATES FAG HATERS

[LeftCoast]

7. I was thinking of going more subtle:

The World is a Brighter Place Today

8. won't be known publicly until the grass seed has taken root over the grave ...

and yet, the lefties would show infinitely more respect to him than he ever showed anyone "beneath" him ... ever ...

[annabanana]

9. quiet & dignified

With respectful carnival rides and dance contests.


maybe some fireworks....

[RB TexLa]

10. Is someone supposed to publicly announce when he dies?

[xchrom]

11. i hope many, many thousands have the good grace to show up

and laugh and hoot and holler.

[MiniMe]

12. I would wonder what he did wrong that he died, but sinking to his level

makes you just as bad as he was.

[mwb970]

13. It would be adequate for him to just go away.

Soon, please.

[BoneDaddy]

14. The ONLY true way to deal with Fred Phelps

is to ignore him when he dies. Let him and his cabal of twisted followers get NONE of your power.

If you hate Phelps you give him power. The opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference and that is how we should remember a bad human being.

15. I am afraid, that, as a Christian

I will be forced to boycott his funeral. Even if I had no plans, I wouldn't attend. (I feel that I will have to wash my hair on that day.)
