Pastor Fred Phelps: "God Hates Lady Gaga" Almost As Much As "God Hates Fags"

ladygaga8.jpg
Does the lady even have a forehead? We've never seen it.
Fred Phelps, the pastor of Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, is not "gaga" about many people. In fact he hates 'em.

Yes, we're talking about you: homosexuals, Jews, priests, presidents and world residents.

Now, add to Phelps' shit list one more person: Lady Gaga.

In a news release posted on the pastor's website, Phelps says his church plans to picket the performer's concert in St. Louis on January 7.

Why? Something about Lady Gaga having a "whore's forehead."

We'll let the pastor explain the rest. View the outrageous press release after the jump.

God Hates Lady Gaga

Fred Phelps is a disgrace to all God loving people. The City should ban him from spreading his message of hate to our streets.

So Huffington Post linked to your Scribd document but not to your blog: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/23/reverend-fred-phelps-lady_n_402286.html . That strikes me as borderline ass-clown on their part.

Fred Phleps needs to go fuck himself. Lady Gaga is her own person. She's unique, unlike any other musician today, she's got a heart of gold. She probably turned him down for a one-night-stand and now he's all pissy. Hates jews?, i'm not jewish but how dare he hate someone based on religion. there's a name for someone like that.....Nazi. I'm bisexual and he hates homosexuals. Makes me wonder if he started the molesting of little boys and blamed it on priests b/c he hates them. he's a sorry excuse for a human being, and needs to go to hell himself.

I, for one, do not consider myself a Christian. However, I was raised in a Baptist church and have attended churches of numerous denominations as well. If there is one thing that I learned from all of my religious experiences, it is that God doesn't hate.

These people disgust me in the worst way. They take something that many, many people hold as a guide to life and take from it what they want so that they can spread their hatred. In a world where so many people are lost and in need of love, hatred like this is the complete opposite of what we need.

I may be going to hell by any church's standards, but I'll be there with these vile people.

If anyone is interested in a peaceful anti-WBC rally/picket/etc., feel free to contact me. My friends and I are trying to get something organized if there isn't anything in the makings yet.

I think Freddie is just joking with us now. Why Lady Gaga, when he himself writes (in a nice use of alliteration, by the way) "there's nothing new or different about this particular hussy's pretentious prancing"?

Seriously, why does anybody take this guy seriously? I think of people like him the same way I think of ex-girlfriends - I sometimes care what they think of me, but then I realize it doesn't matter!

What a fucking Nazi this asshole is.

I'm an atheist, but I respect all religious belief, and definitely do not go around "spreading the good news" and forcing my atheism on people.

This guy is a hollywood attention-seeking joke.

wow you people actually care? says:

The only thing this means is that Lady Gaga is finally at Madonna-level hype. This is the same crap that crazy religious folk did 20-25 years ago. But Gaga has a ways to go to reach the level of right-wing hysteria brought upon by "Papa Don't Preach" and "Like A Prayer".

Go F *** Yourself Phelps !

Your a disgrace to the world....

Get a reality check... They did away with hanging a long time ago but maybe they should bring it back so we can use it on you !

If anyone is gonna burn in hell it will be you for judging others as thou shall not judge in which you are doing ....

I can't believe how much hatred this man harbors. If God hates Lady Gaga, then that means He intentionally created someone evil, which doesn't make any sense. Since this dude loves to misconstrue and reinvent scripture, perhaps he can reflect on John 8: 7-11

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone....has no one condemned you?...neither do I.

Spend more time working on yourself, my friend.

What is wrong with ya'll! To a certain extent I feel that the pastor is correct. Look at how ya'll are worshiping her! If you truly believe in God then why are you worshiping idles? make your own life just because someone can sing doesn't mean you should hold them up to God's level! Again I ask, What is wrong with this country???

FIRST....why are you anonymous? SECOND I don't believe that just because you appreciate someones quality of work, be it music, writing or art that is considered "worship". Just because someone has more then one painting by Van Gough, or more then one CD of Mozart that it labels them as "worshiping". I call it appreciation. The ONLY reason we are seeing such a strong reaction from the readers is due to the overwhelming "insane" way this guy works. It's borderline Hitler and this is unacceptable. People all over the world are taking offense to this creep and his family. It's hard to hold back your emotions when dealing with this type of lunatic. I hardly feel that anyone is holding Lady Ga Ga up to Gods level. You just have some pretty pissed off people who are having a hard time understanding how someone can actually put crap like this out and get away with it. Hiding behind the 5th amendment. Nothing but cowards if you ask me.

I don't think it's about following or "worshipping" Lady Gaga. I think people are tired of George Phelps. He only does this to get attention, he probably doesn't even know who Lady Gaga is. Just that she's popular and Phelps is an attention whore. I can't even be mad at this dude because he's so irrelevant to life, not just my life but life in general. What more can I say?

I'm going to come on here and say something for the mere fact that i'm a strong christian myself, and lady gaga may be an out of whack character but she is without a doubt talented and deserves the fame she gets.
Rev. James- I respect you for being a pastor and i respect this fred phelps guy,however he's losing my respect right after i read this.In all honesty..you guys can't be making a bigger mistake in spreading the good news. Putting signs up and telling people they are going to hell is exactly what Jesus Christ himself did not do. You want to be like Jesus, you want to be an example, you want to be an influence to people in this world and change the world, then show it with your actions.Shut up with your words that you say to get attention. It doesn't work, and i guarentee you it destroys anybody else's chances of seeing who God is. I'm pretty sure in most people eye's you guys are working against God, not my view, but others yes. Your pretty much driving others away with this crap
Btw, I want to be a youth pastor,just saying i want to be a leader in the church so don't you dare go crossing strings with me on what it means to be a christian. i dont want to hear it,Lady gaga is not being worshipped, she is being appreciated, and she is pretty talented. No matter how weird she is, she doesn't deserve this treatment just like any other human being doesn't deserve it either. I'm a christian, I love God more than anything and God loves Lady Gaga more than anything just like he loves you..i'm pretty sure that's the right thing in this world

Btw, I also will point out, I enjoy listening to Lady Gaga's music. But just cause we listen to her music doesn't mean we agree with her ways. Dont judge, look at yourself, know you are not perfect. I do not like people like you. If your so dang Perfect, post a video on you being Jesus in the 2nd coming. I'm tired of this, shut up, realize no one is perfect, realize you cant change people and lead your congregation in that way, to grow. I just read the definition people have given your church online and they said they your church is a hate group. Yea, Let's see. A church should be a body of people knowing they aren't perfect, but counting on God to grow them, counting on the whole church family to keep moving on while making mistakes in the process. Why? Cause your a human being..duh. Church's aren't hate groups,they are love groups. Symbolism of love cause that's who god is. So STOP IT!!!!

According to Pastor Fred Phelps, God also hates the following people and is not limited to just them. God hates Pat Robertson, Billy Graham, the late Jerry Falwell, who is now in Hell, past Popes, who are now all in Hell and the current Pope, who is damned, Barak Obama, Bill Clinton, and for those of you who are Republicans, hold on before you rejoice, because God also hates the Bush family and He hated Ronald Reagan, who is also, yes, you guessed it, in Hell. He hates the Swedish Royal family, the British Royal family, Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. God hates the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico, Sweden, Israel,Haiti, Great Britain,etc.
Fred Phelps gives Thanks to God for the Pearl Harbor attack by the Japanese nearly 70 years ago. He also give God thanks for the September 11th attack, the Haitian earthquack and he prays for more casualties. He also gives gratitude for the Minnesota bridge collapse, the attack at Virgina Tech University, which probably means he also thanks God for the attack at Columbine High School nearly 11 years ago. furthermore on that one, he probably believes that all the victims many Christians, including the Christian martyrs Rachel Scott and Cassie Bernell are doing homosexual orgies in of course, Hell. God also hates every military veteran and for those of them who were killed in a war, they are damned to Hell and his congregation will let them know at their internment services.

Adrienne says:

Gary, I do not know if you are simply stating these facts, or if you are a firm believer in them as well. Bottom line is:
God loves. I among MANY others would really appreciate if you and others who hold the same views as you do kept it to yourselves and not ostracize other people based on their decisions and their actions. I don't understand why you have such hatred towards these people, being that their lives probably do not affect yours at all. The simple concept of minding your own business would probably be most effective. If God loves, shouldn't you too? Not only that, but who are you to choose who is damned to Hell and who isn't? Nobody can make these kinds of decisions, and nobody should be making crass accusations directed towards other people who are just trying to live their lives.

It's not worshipping someone if you love their music. I agree with Mimi. If you don't like someone or something, you shouldn't go around pushing your beliefs on people. I get that all the time just because I'm an atheist.So what? So you can shut up. I love Lady Gaga, and if I'm going to hell for it, then so be it. Stop talking all this shit about everyone. Nobody is perfect. Not even you Fred.

Mack Leggett says:

Brother Phelps, I understand what you are trying to do; but you must realize that our God loves everyone according to His Word. No, He does not like their sin and it stinks in His nostrils. We as Christians need to realize, that it is our place to love folks and hate sin of any kind; therefore it would be better to attack their sin (what they are doing) and no the person.
