These people (please don’t call them “Christians”- that means “Christ-like” and they definately aren’t) seem to have forgotten one vital scripture reference: “…God is love” 1 John 4:8. The beginning of that verse is interesting. It says “He that loveth not knoweth not God, for God is love”. I think that sums it up pretty well. ---

Auraseer, it’s become “[godlovesfags.com](http://godlovesfags.com)”. 😃😃😃 I’d like to know what happened, though. The domain name could have been snatched away if the original owner didn’t renew in time, which is fine with me; but if they did anything underhanded to get it I would be disappointed. The people at godlovesfags say they’re not sure how it happened. * * * “Eppur, si muove!” - Galileo Galilei ---

Thanks for the info, Topolino. I love a good hack; but I would have preferred it if they had lost control through their own mistakes, rather than subterfuge. Maybe we’ll find out who really did it (and how) later. Of course, if _I_ had that kind of power, there are all sorts of websites I’d like to reroute. ::evil laugh:: * * * “Eppur, si muove!” - Galileo Galilei ---

Here’s the InterNIC whois info still reflects Westboro Baptist Church. You can see it by going to [allwhois.com](http://allwhois.com) and pulling up the domain. This means that the switch must have been pulled on the hosting provider level. Either the domain has been pointed in the name servers zone record, or, a cgi script or meta refresh is being forced off the index.html page. I hope it stays that way. 🙂 * * * “Knowing others is wisdom. Knowing yourself is enlightenment.” - Lao-tzu, Chinese philosopher ---
