Heard this on the radio this afternoon:

Westboro Baptist Church leader Margie J. Phelps has announced that the group will picket the Apple co-founder's funeral, condemning him for "teaching his neighbors to sin."

However:
She tweeted this gem from an Iphone. After a number of groups pointed out the irony, Phelps continued to tweet, typing, "Rebels mad cuz I used iPhone to tell you Steve Jobs is in hell. God created iPhone for that purpose!" 

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/06/westboro-baptist-church-steve-jobs-funeral_n_998032.html

Simple minded Piper logic flows that if Mr Jobs's company created the Iphone then Mr Jobs was doing God's work. I personally find Ms Phelps actions sadly humorous.

Mayhap one of my esteemed colleagues can point out to this unlearned backwoods plains Piper what passage in the Bible is interpreted as spreading derision is Gods will?

Lemon Curry?

She posts sheet online, she protests funerals.

She is accomplishing what she wants.   To piss everyone off and to get recognition.

If everyone would ignore her posts and not have a reaction, all they could do is swivel up and blow away unnoticed.

I've been to too many PGR assignments and they just lay back and drag in all the attention they can get.   They no get attention, they no longer appear in that area, they just say they are going to be there, hoping to get a rise, and if they do, here they come a rolling in.

They also provide entertainment. There's something noble in that, isn't there?  Wink

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent.
But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent.
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep.
In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

That is called ATTENTION and that is what she is after.    NO attention, she no appear.

NOOOOOOooooooo I hadn't heard a peep about those losers for like a month and was enjoying the crap outta it. I was hoping for a quick slide into obscurity for them  followed by  "remember the phelps gang?"  and I'd say "who?"
