Yes, ol’ Fred Phelps and his band of merry men apparently think the 96 who died are in Hell. As usual, he offers little justification toward this idea. You can see more of this here:

Here’s a sample, talking about Providence mayor David Cicilline
Then there’s this:
Am I the only one who thinks it’s appropriate that the Westboro Baptist Church has “666” as part of their zip code?
Definitely not.
What did he say about the space shuttle?
I wouldnt want to be Fred on Judgment day.
So all deaths are the result of the sins of our political representatives? Wouldn’t the human race have become extinct centuries ago?
“Antichritic?” Never heard that one before.
New Luxetra Dietary Pills help YOU lose weight with their powerful new antichritic!
I used a soothing antichritic balm on my tingly parts to clear up a little rash I had. Worked great!
Guys, he’s an idiot. He’s ignorant, he’s bigotted, he’s a frothing at the mouth, toys in the attic, one flew over the califonia condor’s nest cah-razy. He protested on campus last month because in some way that even bizzaro Superman couldn’t figure out, MLK Jr.'s rememberence somehow supports fags.
But you guys know this! You have known this. You will continue to know this. You go to a site called godhatesfags and what the hell do you expect to find? Is anyone remotely surprised Fred Phelps formed the opinions that he did?
Why do we bring his shit to these boards? Why are we giving him a bigger audience?
That’s what I was going to ask, Ender. Given some tragedy that reaches a national level of broadcasting, you can bloody fucking well bet Felchs (misspelling mine) will somehow tie it to his Church of Evil message.
I swear, if a Baptist church got burned to the ground by his own son he’d picket the funeral of whoever died and attribute it to fagjunk pyrotechnics or something.
We can only hope that Phelps’ afterlife will be one long agony of being tied to a chair at an eternal performance featuring Oscar Wilde, Errol Flynn, Ellen DeGeneres, Freddie Mercury, K.D.Lang, the t.A.t.U. girls, Ian McKellan, etc., on the Heavenly stage.
Anyway, Phelps is an easy target because he is SO damn close to that ideal of somenone EVERYONE can unanimously condemn…
JR, I get the point but I don’t see the good in letting Fred get such a wonderful show…perhaps he is, though.
Amend “he is” to “he should” or something that actually makes sense.
Long night. Long, painful night.

I hope that Fred Phelps’s eternal punishment will consist of him being tied to a chair. Dancing around the chair will be the spirit of every person he’s accused of being gay or who’s funeral he’s “protested” at. These spirits will be dressed as outrageous transvestites (garments that put the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to shame). As they dance around Phelps’s chair, they chant in childhood sing-song “Freddy’s a Faggie! Freddy’s a Faggie!” pointing fingers and making childish faces.
After a few millenia of this, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence show up and start beating him with their hand bags which are festooned with sequins and rhinestones. This goes on for the rest of eternity.
Sheesh, Freyr, you’ve seen his signs and website. Go for what fits what he’s blaspheming God for – have him forcibly raped by John Holmes (who conveniently has developed satyriasis). Repeatedly. Perpetually.
Now Polycarp… tisk tisk… he he he
Wouldn’t it be more painful for him to be raped by one of those signs he carries?
Why settle for one or the other?
Naw, you guys got it wrong.
See, if the Vile Mr. Phelps is being fucked/raped, then he’s still the victim. No… more appropriate would be for the Vile Mr. Phelps to find himself in hell and under the control of his penis, which has developed a raging obesssion with butt-fucking willing men. Men who tell the Vile Mr. Phelps what a wonderful, passionate lover he is. Then have the Vile Mr. Phelps compelled to felch these lovers in a prolonged manner. In other words…
… turn the Vile Mr. Phelps into what he hates and fears the most - an aggressive, man-seeking, butt-fucking, felch-sucking faggot.
THEN have the Sisters sing and dance around him “Freddie is a faggot…Freddie is a faggot…”
On the linked flier in the OP, you’ll note that Phelps has provided a picture of his God directly to the left of the photo of the firefighters.
Phelps is an isolated nutball with no following beyond some of the more demented members of his family.
