Steve Jobs Dead

You guys hear the latest stink on this news?

Westboro Baptist Church wants to picket his funeral. Most ironically, conspiring to lambast Job's death using his own technology. Their reason: "He's been teaching sin".

I sense some very ugly clouds approaching this situation.

Oh the irony. If she feels that's the right way to do it, she obviously wasn't thinking in the first place.

Westboro Baptists are little more than media whores who pick highly sensitive and high profile events to picket for the sole intention of gaining as much exposure as possible. Whether or not they earnestly believe that such exposure will spread the message of their god, or if they're just interested in generating a public profile, the means to their ends are the same. (Though I think it's more a case of the latter, since their message seems to be "it's too late for repentance" - we're just rubbing your nose in it. They even picketed the Rick Perry Prayer Rally a few weeks ago.)

The best thing we can do is to try to just ignore them.

You forgot the sueing to ensure nobody can stop them part, but yeah.

The way I see it, it's not worth paying attention to them. Especially because the gospels pretty much condemn that kind of behavior - I'm pretty solidly on the side of "they're giant media whores". It would be hilarious to see them get counter-picketed with gospel quotations.

You guys should look up rankin county vs westboro church. It was pretty funny.

Also, apparently the head of westboro was a democrat activist... I thought most democrat/liberal are atheist? Why is he running a church? Or is he an exception? Oh well, not that it matter to me.
