Bubba the "love sponge" takes on Westboro Baptist Church

Today driving to work I heard "Bubba the Love Sponge" talking about Westboro Baptist Church and how he is planning on having on Shirley Phelps. My husband had the station on from last night and I couldn't change the station because I hung onto every word. Bubba said that since she knows the Bible inside and out, he wanted a pastor or minister to go on the show to counter what she claims is "gospel" since she can quote chapter and verse.

Considering that she may very well be able to do that, it does not mean she understands what she has read. Bubba mentioned she likes to quote Romans.

I do not suggest you look up the site because I tried a couple of times and ended up with a frozen screen.

Don’t forget to tune into today’s Show!!!

If she is quoting anything that Christ didn't say, then she needs to consider the source of who said it. In this case, it's St. Paul.

This is part of what he said:

24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Seems to me that the folks at the "church" have a lot in common with this part but I bet they don't see it.


When you consider that Paul was equally sure of what he believed that he lived his life after the crucifixion hunting down Christians so they could be killed, he had a habit of getting things messed up. He lived as Saul of Trasus until Christ spoke to him and "helped him see the light" by showing him how wrong he was. Anyone using what another human said to support a twisted vision of what Christianity is supposed to be is missing the point of Christ Himself.

Christ did say a lot about divorce and getting remarried but you'll hardly ever hear anyone saying much about this since so many have been divorced and remarried. Christ talked about sex without being married too. What all of this boiled down to is that it hurt other people and you shouldn't do it. This fits perfectly with what he said the greatest commandment was too.



The Greatest Commandment
28One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.[e] 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'[f] 31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[g]There is no commandment greater than these."



This shows that you cannot love your neighbor, which Christ pointed out was anyone, at the same time you hate them. This group hates soldiers, the very people deciding to lay down their lives for the sake of this country. This is another thing this group of people forget.

John 15:13
(New International Version)
13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.




The part that gets me on all of this is that while we need to defend even the rights of people to say what they want when they are terrible, there is also a need for the families of the fallen to have some allowance to mourn the loss without being attacked. They should be able to go to the cemetery and bury their family member without having to hear these hateful words and see the horrible signs by people claiming to be Christian or from anyone else. They are a tiny group and have a right to believe whatever they want, but they do not have the right to subject everyone else to their twisted views of it. Just because someone has the right to say something no one should be forced to hear it. In the case of a military funeral, these families have no choice but to hear them and see their signs and this is wrong.

So please out there in blog world. If there is a pastor or a minister or someone with a lot more biblical knowledge than I have, please contact Bubba's show and take on this woman with a very twisted view of love.
