Church Pickets Comic-Con

Michael Phelps Westborough Church became infamous after picketing soldier’s funerals with signs that say “God Hates Fa**,” citing the war in the Middle East as punishment for America’s acceptance of homosexuality. The church has been busy of late; they protested a Lady Gaga show in St Louis, Missouri where Gaga tweeted her fans saying to ignore the protestors. They also protested the Comic-Con science fiction expo in San Diego.

Their website has a litany of events to protest all over the US. Here is the posting for Comic-Con:

“San Diego Convention Center 111 W Harbor Dr. WBC to picket Comic Con 2010 at the San Diego Convention Center. Are you kidding?! If these people would spend even some of the energy that they spend on these comic books, reading the Bible, well no high hopes here. They have turned comic book characters into idols, and worship them they do! Isaiah 2:8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: 9 And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not. It is time to put away the silly vanities and turn to God like you mean it. The destruction of this nation is imminent - so start calling on Batman and Superman now, see if they can pull you from the mess that you have created with all your silly idolatry.”
