I shouldn't continue to be surprised by these things, but I still am. I just wish the earth would swallow these people and we would never see them again.

Because they're evil, twisted freaks, that's why :nope:

These nuts do this for attention. They claimed they were coming here once to picket killed vets, but when they found out the Hell's Angels were coming in mass to deal with them, they stayed home.

My guess is they show up there, they'll find themselves getting railroaded out of town.

Yeah, I know about the gay veterans and the people who died from AIDS. But children? Murdered children?

I tell ya if I was a family member of one of those children and these people showed up......

Anyway, I read the article but I still don't get why.

The thing that upsets me the most, however, is that Armistead pointed out to me that early Christians had no concept of hell, so these creeps won't be getting what they deserve when they finally kick the bucket.

Sorry to run off the rails, but I think this deserves answering:

What a strange thing to say. First, how do you know those early Christians were right? Was Armistead referring to all Christians of that time, or only a certain group? Do you base all your beliefs on something someone told you?

My point is not to disagree with Armistead, but with your interpretation of what you think he said. Just because someone two thousand years ago didn't believe it, how do you know there is no hell? How do you know that these people won't end up there? You say that what upsets you most is something you have no way of knowing about, based on what someone who died centuries ago may or may not have believed.

Better to just stick to despising these jerks in the here and now. What happens to anyone in the next life (if there even is one) is a matter of pure speculation, and not worth getting upset over.
