San Diego Comic-Con report: God vs. The Super Heroes

San Diego Comic-Con report:
God vs. The Super Heroes
or at least, their Fans.

This years Comic-Con in San Diego, California, was riddled with excitement. Not the least of which, was an organized protest by the Westboro Baptist Church.

In "this report" by Bob Calhoun of Salon.com, Bob writes that;

"If Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church had his way, God would be sending biblical plagues down upon the San Diego Convention Center right about now and turning hundreds of nerds dressed in Batman costumes into pillars of salt."
Fred Phelps apparently, is the pastor of the Westboro Baptist Church. And as it turns out, Bob Calhoun actually conducted an interview with Fred Phelps daughter, Margie Phelps. You can read the full interview "here".


In my own humble opinion; this is exactly why God doesn't have any fans as His disciples are always damning people for their sins, instead of forgiving, or even teaching them what sin is, and why they shouldn't do it.

For Every Action, there is an equal and Opposite Reaction.
That's Known "physical law". And after reading the Bible (for myself), I can tell you that, "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth", is the "spiritual equivalent" of the physical law of action /reaction. And even Mr. Spock will tell you that, "there are certain physical laws that Cannot be ignored". For instance; if you walk out in front of a moving car, your gonna get hit. Just like, if you walk into the house of the "strange woman" (Proverbs 7), you will never walk out again. At least, not all in one piece. And not because she will "physically" do harm to you. (Though, getting physical, is not beyond her bounds.) I know, because I found out the hard way. Through, Stupidity and Sin! Which, is what the Bible is really all about; "common sense".

Unfortunately this book of common sense is presented to us as a "Book of Laws", and Damn You should you break one of them. So, we discard the Bible (quickly) without ever thinking that maybe, just maybe, it says something different than what these "Hypocrites" are telling us it says.

In deed I am left wondering if the Westboro Baptist Church is a church of God, or of the Devil, as it is Satan who is the Accuser of the brethren. And Satan who seeks to keep us from the knowledge of common sense as the ignorant (and the offended), are more easily manipulated and controlled than those of knowledge and wisdom. And Behold, as the Comic-Con nerds would in deed form a Counter-protest which, is like forming a wall that now prevents them from seeking God, or even the common sense that is God.

Again, in my humble opinion. There was but one sign that needed to be displayed against the Westboro Baptist Church. For it is the God Himself who comes to our defense saying;



"Let he who is without sin, 
cast the first stone." 
~ Jesus Christ 
(JOHN 8:7)


And there let the Church argue against their own God.
While we, enjoy the convention. :)

Yours truly,
Bargain Hunter

p.s. Of course, a counter-protest is "more fun" than allowing the Christ to stand in our defense. But then, as Every Action Does have an equal and Opposite Reaction, it also makes us just like them. :(
