God's Wrath

Speaking of protecting us from the influence of gays (or fags, as some prefer), thank goodness we have Fred Phelps, the lesser known kin of Pat Robertson, to remind us of the mysterious ways God moves in. According to the reverend Phelps, the death of twelve coal miners was God's wrath at those notorious fag-enabling West Virginians.

Among the "crimes" of these people, for which God has judged them harshly, are that they "worship dunghill fag gods in 'Brokeback Mountain,'" and "their holy book is 'The Da Vinci Code' - not the King James Bible."

I gotta hand it to crazy Fred. Many people would have stopped with "fag gods," satisifed with the near-alliterative quality of the phrase. It takes the sensibility of a deranged poet to toss dunghill in there.
