It's not amazing to me that there would be one guy doing this, after all, we've all seen the sandwich board, "the end is nigh" guys, but what does it say that this is an organized group.

Members of a church say God is punishing American soldiers for defending a country that harbors gays, and they brought their anti-gay message to the funerals Saturday of two Tennessee soldiers killed in Iraq.

The church members were met with scorn from local residents. They chased the church members cars' down a highway, waving flags and screaming "God bless America." .........

The Rev. Fred Phelps, founder of Westboro Baptist in Kansas, contends that American soldiers are being killed in Iraq as vengeance from God for protecting a country that harbors gays. The church, which is not affiliated with a larger denomination, is made up mostly of Phelps' children, grandchildren and in-laws.

The church members carried signs and shouted things such as "God hates fags" and "God hates you."

Oh, and as an aside, there was some comedian, can't remember who, who did a bit on the sandwich board guys. He asks god, "how could you let the world end, and all the people die?" God responds, " I put out a warning, I put a guy in Times square who yelled and yelled about it. What more do you want?"
