I remember hearing the report about the picketing of several soldiers funerals. One of these funerals was Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder. Snyder’s father, Albert Snyder, sued Fred Phelps, the founder of a fundamentalist church in Topeka, KS and won a $5 million judgment that was later overturned. The court has now ordered that Snyder pay the court costs which are around $16,000. Snyder, besides having to pay for part of the funeral costs, will now have to pay court costs.

The group, who held up signs such as “You’re going to hell,” “God hates you” and “Thank God for dead soldiers,” believe that God is punishing the United States for the sin of homosexuality. The attorney for the church as indicated that the money will be used to pay for more demonstrations.

These people can believe what they want to believe, put isf they are truly a Christian Chruch than this is not very Christ like
