God Hates the World
Pastor Phelps goes even farther off the deep end.

It's a world map divided into countries. Click a country and see a detailed explanation of why God hates them.

5. War is peace.
Poor is rich.
Right is wrong.


It has precedence with them.

3. Phelps, you closet dominionist.
Your inability to focus on one country at a time will increase the odds of your mission's failure. Of course, you'll never realize that and probably be claiming victories in the name of your false god on your deathbed.

4. His ridiculous interpretation of John 3:16 is unbelievable.
http://www.godhatestheworld.com/common/html/john316.html

It seems that if you're going to base an entire lying theology on one part of a verse, you would at least know what the verse means. But so-called Christians today are far too simple-minded and lazy to look into the matter. So we'll do it for you: the word translated "world" in John 3:16 is the Greek word "kosmos." The word never means "every individual of mankind who ever lived." In fact, the word has at least seven different meanings in the scripture, depending on the context in which it's used. It can mean Gentiles (as opposed to Jews); it can mean the world of believers; it can mean the world of unbelievers; it can mean the physical creation; etc. If you would actually read what the verse says, and read the context around the verse, you would find that the answer is right before your lying eyes - you just don't want to see it, because it conflicts with how your evil, dark hearts think God ought to be! The context is "the world of believers" (whether they are Jews or Gentiles). Those are the people God loves. Those are the people for whom Jesus died. Jesus didn't come to condemn those people - He came to save them. But everyone else is already condemned, because they don't believe.


Well, gee Fred..... wouldn't the "believers", i.e. those who already "believed", already be destined for eternity in Heaven, and therefore NOT in need of "saving"??

John 3:16 is the cornerstone on which all of Christian theology is built (as distorted as most of it has become over the years). But if dumbass Phelps can't even agree that John 3:16 means exactly what it says, then he really has no business calling his fucking hate cult "Christian" at all. Not that anyone with an IQ above their shoe size would mistake them for such.

6. What amazes me is that plain old lithium would probably shut this man up forever.
Antisocial prick that he is. He's giving us antisocial people a bad name. :evilgrin:

10. It must be their backup base of ops.
They've got to have SOMEWHERE to move to when God starts smiting.

12. Oh but God does hate Norway
You didn't notice this part:


I'm sure God hates Norway much more than Pakistan:

Although Pakistan made sodomy illegal in the 90’s they do not institute God’s standard of the death penalty (Lev. 20:13 & Rom. 1:32). This is yet another instance where the Pakistani government substitutes their base judgment for God’s perfect judgment.

9. The Judeo-Christian-Islamic God is totally psychotic and were He real, deserves our scorn!
A couple of great anarchist writers put it better than I can:

Religion! How it dominates man's mind, how it humiliates and degrades his soul. God is everything, man is nothing, says religion. But out of that nothing God has created a kingdom so despotic, so tyrannical, so cruel, so terribly exacting that naught but gloom and tears and blood have ruled the world since gods began.

Emma Goldman
Anarchism: What It Really Stands For


http://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/goldman/works/1910s/anarchism.htm

Jehovah, who of all the good gods adored by men was certainly the most jealous, the most vain, the most ferocious, the most unjust, the most bloodthirsty, the most despotic, and the most hostile to human dignity and liberty - Jehovah had just created Adam and Eve, to satisfy we know not what caprice; no doubt to while away his time, which must weigh heavy on his hands in his eternal egoistic solitude, or that he might have some new slaves. He generously placed at their disposal the whole earth, with all its fruits and animals, and set but a single limit to this complete enjoyment. He expressly forbade them from touching the fruit of the tree of knowledge. He wished, therefore, that man, destitute of all understanding of himself, should remain an eternal beast, ever on all-fours before the eternal God, his creator and his master. But here steps in Satan, the eternal rebel, the first freethinker and the emancipator of worlds. He makes man ashamed of his bestial ignorance and obedience; he emancipates him, stamps upon his brow the seal of liberty and humanity, in urging him to disobey and eat of the fruit of knowledge.

Mikhail Bakunin
God and the State

15. This is so disgusting
It only confirms how I feel about the religous right. It is not just that they hate gays, it is their passion and fervor for their belief that always angers me. I would take Rick Warren's invocation over Pastor Phelps.
