Westboro Baptist Church

Westboro Baptist Church, with its provocative motto "God Hates Fags", is run by extremist Fred Phelps. While mainstream Christianity rejects homosexuality as sin, following God's example, they love the sinner. In contrast, Westboro Baptist Church demonstrates no love for the sinner, and their attitude is considered to be one of hate.

The church is not affiliated with any Baptist denomination. The church's members are almost entirely family members and are infamous for their protests and pickets at the funerals of soldiers who died in the line of duty, where they take the opportunity to denounce what they consider to be America's acceptance of homosexuality. The name of their website reflects this. Their antics are denounced across almost all spectra of political and religious thought.

Their hatred, and seeking of publicity, goes beyond homosexuality. They also protested the Pope's visit, calling him the anti-Christ.
