Westboro Baptist Church Member Says Gays Should ‘Absolutely’ Be Put to Death & Claims to Be ‘Life-Long Democrat’

Westboros Jonathan Phelps: Bible Calls for Death Penalty for Gays

It’s no secret that the Westboro Baptist Church has deep disdain for homosexuals. But some troubling comments from Jonathan Phelps, son of the group’s leader, Fred Phelps, show just how intensely the group feels about the issue.

During an appearance on “The David Pakman Show,” Jonathan proclaimed that he supports to death penalty for gays and lesbians — a startling admission that he has apparently touted in the past as well.

During the exchange, Phelps said that he “absolutely” supports capital punishment for the LGBT community and that his views are based upon holy scriptures. He called the notion that gays would be put to death a Biblical tenet and is “righteous” and that should be embraced by the federal government.

“You believe that based on what the Bible says, we should have the death penalty for homosexuality?,” Pakman asked, with Phelps answering “absolutely.”

Phelps, though, didn’t seem to want to get into the details surrounding how such a punishment should be enforced. When pushed to give details, he essentially avoided the question.

“Human government would have to establish that, and since I’m not involved in that aspect of it, I’m not answering that,” he said. “What I’m partial to is people repenting, that’s what I’m partial to.”

During the interview, the Westboro members also made it clear that he doesn’t support Barack Obama nor Mitt Romney for president (he noted his belief that Romney is a liar) and proclaimed that he is “a life-long Democrat.”

Watch Phelps’ comments, below (his remarks about gays and the death penalty happen around 3:50):

    As an Independent, Fundamental Baptist, I am appalled by westboro and I see nothing at all about their positions that is fundamental to Christianity. On a side note, one of our members died in Afganistan (IED) a few years ago and they (westboro members) drove down to OKC to protest at our funeral. They were stopped by a road block half a mile from our Church (our Pastor requested police involvement in advance). Sorry hipocrits, go disgrace all that is good and noble somewhere else.

      So let’s review some history. Fred Phelps, the head of the “church,” actually has a long history of support for Democrats. He has run as a Democrat for governor of Kansas three tiumes, mayor of Topeka twice, and for the U.S. Senator once.

      Al Gore was apparently the family’s favorite Democrat. Phelps himself was a Gore delegate when he ran for president in 1988. The Phelpses even held a fundraiser for Gore in their Topeka, Kansas home. Their support paid off. The Phelps family was invited to the Clinton/Gore inaugurations in 1993 and 1997.

      Here are some pictures originally posted at the website of the Log Cabin Republicans (link above) more than 10 years ago of Gore and various members of the Phelps family:

      They are Muslims in disguise. The children are being terrorized and taught to hate just like they are in the Middle East. Wish there was a way to reach them and let them know how wrong they are but no one can get through the hate barrier, so they can hear.
      I really hate what they are doing to their children as I hate what the Muslims are doing to theirs. I see no difference.

      Phelps supported Al Gore in the 1988 Democratic Party primary election. In his 1984 Senate race, Gore opposed a “gay bill of rights” and stated that homosexuality was not something that “society should affirm”. Phelps has stated that he supported Gore because of these earlier comments. According to Phelps, members of the Westboro Baptist Church helped run Gore’s 1988 campaign in Kansas. Phelps’ son, Fred Phelps Jr., hosted a Gore fundraiser, which Al and Tipper Gore attended, at his home in Topeka. Fred Phelps, Jr. served as a Gore delegate to the 1988 Democratic National Convention.

      Stoning gays was never a universal moral command for Christians. Something people must be aware when looking at certain commands and or actions. It’s used all the time to try to poke holes in what Christians believe..i’ve heard it a billion times and it always fails. The OT law was for God’s people, the Israelite; many of the laws were cultural, some for cleanliness reasons. Overall God wanted his people to be set apart from other nations, thus you get some of the “weird” laws like not eating shell fish.

      So as a NT Christian who is no longer under the law, these things do not apply, and actually never applied to NT Christians.

      Romans 8:

      “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[c] And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.”

      ” Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9-11.

      To clarify, I am not supporting the Westboro Baptists’ idea of capital punishment for homosexuals, but that God’s holiness is equally as important as His unconditional love.

      “And the four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within; and day and night [d]they do not cease to say, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who [e]is to come.” Revelations 4:8.

      That’s a common misconception. When Jesus talked about giving to the poor He was telling YOU (and me) to give to the poor. He wasn’t telling you to pass a law to take money from others to give to someone else. It’s a personal admonition. Taking money from someone to give away isn’t generous or charitable. It’s theft.

    GOD and the Holy Spirit are in each and everyone on planet Earth whether you are gay, straight or bisexual or trisexual.
    GOD does not discriminate. People do. It is easy for people to see that we all have a different color of skin but it is inside of each and everyone of us that counts because our blood is all the same color.
    If people were all the same color or had the same beliefs or ATTITUDES life would be very boring.

    It’s a good thing that “god believers” no longer follow the more deadly laws set up in the bible . . . or the United States could have been about like radical muslim countries. So glad they decided to go with “the new covenant” . . . . which will only be deadly at the end of the world.

      They don’t really know God do they? My favorite Scripture is when Pilate was telling Jesus that Pilate had the power to put Jesus to death. And Jesus replied as shown in John 19:11 Jesus answered, You could have no power at all against me, except it were given you from above: therefore he that delivered me to you has the greater sin.
      If it was a sin for the Lord to deliver his son, then how much more is it a sin for these so-called followers of Jesus to want to deliver other humans to death?

      Blacktooth,
      Maybe I’m incorrect, but it seems like if the Father can fall from letting the son of man get crucified, then people will fall much farther for the persecution of other people. Now Abraham was told by God to sacrifice Isaac, but as Abraham was getting ready to sacrifice Isaac, an Angel of the Lord stopped Isaac saying in Genesis 22:12 [Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything unto him: for now I know that fearest God, seeing thou has not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.] It seems like Abraham’s son Isaac was also the son of God, and God stopped Isaac from sacrificing Isaac. Now when Jesus was sacrificed God didn’t stop it – probably because Jesus is the Father, and the Lord. Yet, in our Father’s Heavens there are many mansions. It says in Revelation that when Jesus returns we will learn the name of his God. Moreover, the God of the universe was no where in sight at the time to stop the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. That’s just what it seems like to me.

      I don’t mean any dis-respect but your understanding of the reason Jehovah God agreed to the sacrificing of His Son, Jesus, the Christ is really confused. The entire purpose of Jesus’ role was to buy all of us back from sin and death. Now, because of God’s willingness, and Jesus’ willingness to provide that propitiatory ransom sacrifice for us, we can attain to everlasting life. Something not possible before God’s righteous act of sending His Son to earth. – John 17:3, 3:16-17

      I guess what it seems like is that Jesus is the Father of this earth and solar system or which can be called a mansion. And it was Jesus who stopped Abraham from crucifying Isaac, but when it came time for the crucifixion of Jesus the God of the universe was far off on business so he didn’t stop it. And that the Father, and the son is one spirit in two, which relationship constantly reverses itself, because the Father learns from the son and vice versa. The Lord of the universe sins because he wants to be glorified, and that’s why he keeps Satan around, and when that Lord decides he doesn’t want to be glorified anymore, then all wicked people will be done away with. That’s just what it seems like.

      I don’t mean any disrespect either, but people’s understanding of the scriptures seems to all revolve back around to being about yourself, and your own glory. See, because God didn’t give you Jesus, but that it is that Jesus gave you his own son. It doesn’t surprise me that the scriptures revolves around people’s own glory, because even the God of the universe was glorified through the crucifixion of Jesus. The want to be glorified is a vain thing, and it’s not just secluded to men. That’s why when a person has a certain belief structure, they always must find another who believes the same thing – to glorify their own beliefs. And when the Father of all things in the universe figures that out – then the world will cease to exist as you know it.

      Adam was created in God’s image, and in their likeness he was created for the glory of God. Then Adam had been created in the likeness of wanting to glorify himself. Ultimately that’s why he fell from grace, put out of the garden, and the tree of life hidden. Because he was created in God’s image – the want to be glorified.

      As long as the Lord wants to be glorified, Liberty is just an illusion. Liberty on earth always decays because men want to be glorified, but because the Lord wants to be glorified – that’s why men want to be glorified. In my opinion all of this means we don’t really have freedom of choice, because our choice is always whatever glorifies God, because God likes to be glorified. Liberty is a Harlot that doesn’t really exist, and is always chased away by the want of glory.

      ilikepeople, . . . interesting posts. Definitely not what I heard in the Assemblies of God [when I was a christian]. Considering your posts, . . . I have very little desire to be glorified by anyone. Especially to the level of “a god”. All due respect, perhaps, but everyone should treat others as they would want to be treated. Not out of a benefit OF themself, but for the benefit of others. . . .and by default, it should come back to you as well.

      I don’t believe in any “god who wants all the glory”. I think such an entity can be rather selfish and potentially dangerous. . . . . . . and “desire for that level of glory” can only come from an entity who isn’t complete in itself [thus, imperfect].

    It would surprise no one if all of the faux-Christians of Westboro turned out to be democrats or muslims, for that matter. The hatred and evil spewed by these lunatics could only come from democrats or muslim cultists.

      As much as I dislike c/p posts, I present a portion of what Wikipedia says about Westboro’s founder, Fred Phelps:

      Democratic Party
      Phelps has run in various Kansas Democratic Party primaries five times, but has never won. These included races for governor in 1990, 1994, and 1998, receiving about 15 percent of the vote in 1998.[33] In the 1992 Democratic Party primary for U.S. Senate, Phelps received 31 percent of the vote.[34] Phelps ran for mayor of Topeka in 1993[35][36] and 1997.[37]

      Support for Al Gore
      Phelps supported Al Gore in the 1988 Democratic Party presidential primary election.[37] In his 1984 Senate race, Gore opposed a “gay bill of rights” and stated that homosexuality was not something that “society should affirm”.[38] Phelps has stated that he supported Gore because of these earlier comments.[39] According to Phelps, members of the Westboro Baptist Church helped run Gore’s 1988 campaign in Kansas. Phelps’ son, Fred Phelps Jr., hosted a Gore fundraiser at his home in Topeka and was a Gore delegate to the 1988 Democratic National Convention.[4] Gore spokesman Dag Vega declined to comment, saying “We are not dignifying those stories with a response.”[40]

    I don’t believe in same sex marriage but that right there goes too far. This is basically equal to what they do in the middle east with homosexuals, they get stoned to death. As much as I disagree with philosophy on Same sex marriage due to what the bible says, I don’t believe that they should be killed, I mean they are people too. The bible preaches to us in the Proverbs that violence is wrong. Westboro really ticks me off because these idiots are proverting the scriptures and giving Christians a bad name.

    I condemn Westboro, they are the ones who have truly sinned and others should condem them too.

      What . . . .in . . . .THE. . . . hell . . . are you talking about? I’m not a democrat, but I can assure you that the democrats are not calling for “the death penalty for gay/lesbians”. His stance is a biblical god mandate.

      I never make a response online like this EVER…but you sie, are a complete and total dumba$$. Do you even consider the things you post before doing so or do you live your life with kneejerk reaction to every little thing you think will make you look better than the piece of crap that you are?

      Th c-street family, composed of many right wing politicians who are “working for god’ and celebrated pastor Rick Warren have ties to the leaders in Uganda, who also want to execute gays. These are government leaders, not some member of a family cult, who want people executed. They are supported by people on the American right. The “family” has ties to a similar religios group in Uganda whose member PROPOSED the agenda of killing Ugandan gays.

      I will end here by using your “logic”….you sir, and the political people you serve, are exposing your central theme of the killing of many innocent people, because you believe in the same “god” the Phelps family believe in.

      What a friggin maroon

      BIOHAZARD23, Morning as well. Funny you should ask that. Bumped my forehead on the corner of a shelf last night while visiting relatives. Still got the headache, but have a fresh bottle of aspirin oh hand. The greater pain is the really stupid feeling that I have right now, LOL. But, I’m okay.

      DEAVONREYE, If you asking me what I am talking about, its really simple. In past stories about the Westboro loons here on The Blaze our well known liberal trolls have tried to associate them with conservatives, Republicans, and the Tea Party. Wasn’t trying to say that the Democrats of today wish to stone to death homosexuals with the possible exception of many Muslims who vote Democrat. Just can’t picture them voting Republican. Past horrors with the KKK and other so called hate groups committing heinous crimes and murders all came from the Democrats. Ever wonder why Dr. Martin Luther King was a registered Republican?

      CAUSE_GLEN_SAID_SO, Okay, I’ll see your “what a maroon” and up you to booger eating moron. What kind of hate have we seen very recently coming from the left? Racist hate, and I mean hate, not just hate speech, directed to a black female actress. Sprinkle in a couple of death threats to her as well. And, for what? Speaking her mind, exercising her 1st Amendment Right. Then see what the like of YOU do? Just what I mentioned above. That is you and your group of lefties. You may not have typed the words yourself, but it is till your ilk. Then, there are the death threats and wishes from even more of you ilk regarding Mitt Romney on Twitter and Face Book. When somebody speaks in favor of a conservative, or says anything that Dem-wits like you disagree with. All Hell breaks loose in the ether about how your ilk wants people to die. Okay, you may suck up to homosexuals, but your party members certainly show how they wish to be inhumane to so many others.

      DEAVONREYE, I believe I just did that in the post just above. Much like we hear that death is a central them of Islam, the Democrats, or rather their vocal voters tend to wish death upon those with whom they disagree. If you try to deny this, you will look at least in my mind like the three monkeys.

    Just how will Tofu, Just Cranky, and the rest of the Bash Mitt caucus spin how they don’t stand with this nut job DEMOCRAT cabal. I know, I know, Mitt’s not conservative enough, he flip-flop’s on abortion, he voted for the stimulus(Not), he voted for NDAA (Not), RP/GJ would fix every problem in two weeks , if only 5% would vote for them, raw milk will kill you, he spoke about meeting a fallen Seal (while Tofu quotes a “close friend” of the Seal with supposed anti-Mitt sentiment {hearsay}) blah, blah, blah.

      Those nutcases thrive on publicity, and their outrageous words and actions guarantee that they receive it. Since most of the Westboro loonies are members of the Phelps family, one cannot rule out the possibility of a genetic flaw that predisposes them to mental illness..

      While you are right in many ways, Gonzo, but we should speak out against those sins that easily entangle us and destroy lives, but these folks are not displaying Christ, they are bringing shame to His Name. God hates the sin but loves the sinner. If we were all murdered for our sin(s) there would not be one person left on this earth.

    Considering the history of the Democratic party particularly in the 1800s and their desire to institutionalize slavery, create their own civilian army (a.k.a. the KKK) to murder blacks that did not vote for Democrats. Then to buttress their position murder whites that supported the blacks choice of vote; this church members statement does not sound all that out of line for a Democrat. In fact is sounds just like the philosophy of the Muslim religion.

      I really don’t see much difference between the Democrats of that age and the Dems of this age, other then the fact that they try to hide their past. The attacks on Stacey Dash are proof that some still have that way of thinking on the left.

      RONKO,

      There is no real difference. The Democrats of that time realized the overt murdering of people that “disagreed” with them (regardless of race) was, well, “bad form” and garnered them no sympathy.

      Since then they would have us believe they turned a new leaf. They have not but simply turned from the overt side of the leaf to the covert hiding behind ideologies of class/race warfare and many of the current ideologies they now support. Its all the same with the same intent of the 1800s, to enslave others; they have just expanded from the exclusivity of blacks only to all races.
