Heath Ledger and the Westboro Baptists

By sovknight | January 27, 2008

I think that by now everyone knows about this Baptist cult that likes to picket the funerals of people they see as sinners.  Most of these people are of the gay or lesbian variety, or at least assumed so by these idiots, although they do seem to have a bunch of other reasons as well, apparently justified by their (collective) five working brain cells and their misguided beliefs.

Tons of blogs and web sites, YouTube videos, forums, etc. have been covering this issue for a few days now, but I thought I’d add my two cents as well.  I think the more people who write about this issue, the more perspective we can add to it and eventually come to an understanding about truth.

I’d also like to preface this post by stating that I am not religious.  Many of the blogs I’ve read and the videos I’ve watched take the side of one religion or another, and I want to present this from an unbiased position as much as I can.  Now, I suppose that on some level I do believe in a higher power.  Whether it’s the Christian God of Abraham, or the Flying spaghetti monster, I don’t really know.  It’s irrelevant.  I want to look at this from a human perspective.

Everybody hates these guys.  Everybody except for themselves and presumably their immediate family, so it’s no surprise  at the backlash they constantly receive.  Rightfully so, I believe.  These people are hate-mongering cretins.  They do what they do in the name of their interpretation of religious value, but they twist the meaning and manipulate the words to serve their own purposes.  They honestly believe they are preaching the word of God, and that God is on their side and that pretty much everyone else is going to Hell for one sin or another.  Fortunately for us, they are wrong.

What’s any of this got to do with Heath Ledger?  Well, Heath was an actor who played a gay cowboy in a movie.  Because of this, this cult of idiots believe that he “promoted” homosexuality and as we all know, the Bible says being gay is wrong.  Here’s a little news though, and listen up closely… Heath Ledger was not really a gay cowboy.  Shocking, I know, but there it is.  Whether or not he “promoted” homosexuality is irrelevant.  This was a character in a movie.  That was his job.  End of debate.

Listen to this ancient doofus and his crap, then decide for yourself.

The Dumbass Brigade is going to picket his funeral, like they do for dead soldiers and the like.  This in and of itself is wrong and disrespectful.  Whether you’re religious or not, I believe every human being has an instinctual concept of right vs wrong, and picketing funerals is so obviously morally wrong, I can’t begin to articulate my feelings on it.  For them to take a solemn occasion of mourning and turn it into a circus automatically labels them as soulless, heartless morons who should have to give up their constitutional rights to free speech based solely on the fact that all they are doing is spreading hate and deceit.  It’s inhuman.

I don’t know Heath Ledger.  Never met him.  Everyone has said since his death that he was a wonderful human being, that he was a “nice guy” and all that.  Of course, people always say that when popular people die.  Maybe he wasn’t.  Maybe he stole candy from babies, and kicked people’s dogs when walking by on the street.  I doubt it.  No one is perfect, and I’m sure he had his flaws just like anyone else.  I’m sure he wasn’t a saint, but then who is?  Not me.  Not you, and especially not these window-licking, paste-eating Jerry’s Kids religious-cult hate-monger shithead human being wannabes  at the Westboro Baptist Church.  They are so far removed from sainthood that I can just picture the devil right now, cracking his knuckles in anticipation with a gleeful look in his eyes just waiting for one of them to kick off so he can watch their flaming souls take a swan dive straight into Hell where a thousand gay cowboys are waiting, dicks in hand and smiles on their faces, to ass-rape them for the rest of eternity.

Yes, Westboro Baptists, I’m talking to you.  Who are you anyway?  It may be bad form, but I’m personally going to Digg my own article just in the hopes that maybe one of you will read it and respond.  I want to hear from you.  I want to know why you think you can do the things you do in the name of your God and honestly believe that it’s right.  And while you’re at it, click on one of my damn ads.  You’re all worthless anyway, so you might as well be good for something.  Click my ads, so I can get rich and donate my money to help promote education so that the next generation of kids don’t grow up to be worthless idiot-people like you.  Leave me a comment, so I can waste your sorry ass with logic and intelligence that doesn’t involve your spiteful and incorrect “beliefs”. 

What these people do is wrong.  They know it, I know it, you know it, and the whole world knows it.  If you believe in God, you know that they’re wrong.  If you don’t believe in God, you know that they’re wrong.  Case closed.  You know what?  I hope they do try to picket Heath Ledger’s funeral.  Know why?  Because Heath was an Australian, which means that his true services will likely be in Australia.  So get on a plane, fly to Australia, and picket his funeral Westboro Baptist Pigs.  You won’t last two seconds into the service before ten thousand pissed-off Aussies tear off your arms and legs and shove your heads so far up your asses that you’ll need a Proctologist to brush your teeth.  Go for it.  I dare you.  Let us know how it goes.  You won’t get any sympathy here.

What happened to good?  What happened to the religion we had when I used to go to Sunday school and learn about how good God was and that He loved me and all of His children?  It’s no wonder that I no longer wish to participate.  It’s people like this that ruin it.  Give it a bad name.  Soil it with their filthy ideals and beliefs.  What did Heath Ledger ever do to them? 

Nothing.
