“First of all, the Westboro Baptist Church isn’t Baptist. Second of all, it isn’t a church. A church is the body of Christ, and the God I serve is a god of love, not of hate. The God I serve isn’t the God they think they’re serving.”
“I don’t hate the people of Westboro, but I hate what they stand for. I hate the way that they’ve perverted Christianity and that they’ve made people think that all Christians are just like them. They’re despicable people. They’re out telling people that the Lord hates them. They’re telling people that a homosexual can’t be saved. Don’t tell me that. Don’t tell me that anyone can’t be saved. Christ is about forgiveness. They meant to tell us that God hates us? The Bible says that God gave us his Son for whomsoever, not just for Westboro Baptist. I’m constantly ranting and railing against them.”

Charlie Daniels, speaking words of truth about the Westboro Baptist Church, calling them “despicable,” hating what they do, not them as people. I agree with every word he said. (via thepoliticalfreakshow) |
