"GOD LOVES GAYS"~God’ of Facebook crowdfunds Westboro billboards..

[Cha]

snip//

Finally, some good news...and from ‘God’ too.
Members of the Westboro Baptist Church, at least, will be greeted for 12 months.

The brain behind Facebook’s popular ‘God’ humor page has crowdfunded over $US40,000 in a campaign to erect pro-gay billboards in the home town of the anti-gay Westboro Baptist Church.
‘God’s’ followers pledged the funds in just ten days, and ‘God’ now plans to buy more billboards with the message that ‘God loves gays’ in other parts of the United States if he can raise further funds.

Here is the original Campaign message:

‘A mean lie has been put into the world for thousands of years. The time has come to right this wrong,’ ‘God’ says of his campaign.
‘God loves gay, lesbian and transgendered people. God loves ALL people!
‘Therefore, the LORD shall put up a billboard in Topeka, Kansas that says "God Loves Gays." The time has come to fight back. With love!’

God announced yesterday that he had booked the first billboard and that it will be erected in Topeka, Kansas on 8 September.

Supporters will be rewarded with bumper stickers, limited edition t-shirts and posters saying ‘God loves gay’ signed by ‘God’ himself.

‘God’ is hoping to raise a campaign goal of $50,000 in 60 days to completely fund the project and all supporter rewards, and he has also bought the rights to the web address www.godlovesgaypeople.com to further the campaign.

[herding cats]

19. That is totally awesome!

Thanks for sharing it Cha.

[Cha]

21. It truly is, herding cats! Fighting Hate with LOVE! Everytime..

[herding cats]

22. It sure does.

Hate eats the haters up like cancer from the inside out. Love lifts people up to new heights. There's no competition in that fight.

I'm lifting your graphic for future use. I love that!

[Cha]

23. Well put, hc..

Please do!

[Cha]

24. Somebody had to do it! May as well be 'God'!

[Enthusiast]

25. True!

[Kablooie]

26. The Lannisters of Westboro need to hear that.

[kentauros]

27. Great idea! and thanks for sharing, Cha!

Now, I do have one suggestion for them, and hope they've thought of it, too. That is, they should expect vandalism, be it from WBC or other haters. A couple of wifi-webcams on each upper corner with motion sensors should be enough to snap pics and/or video of potential vandals. Bonus points if any of them are from the WBC, as that's a way of taking them to court for once!

[Cha]

28. Sounds like a grand idea, kentauros and through the link below

maybe there's a way you could contact them to tell them about it!

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/god-loves-gays-billboard-project

$79,148USD Collected so far out of Goal of $50,000!

[kentauros]

29. Damn! Almost 80k!

I do hope this starts a wave of billboards across the country. Some companies will resist (I've seen local ones do that with messages that were against Bush Jr back in the day) so they may have to post in surrounding towns instead.

And, thanks for the link. I'll have a look and see if they have a place for suggestions. I was kind of surprised at the costs the billboard company is insisting on, especially the idea of $5000 for a one-year website! Highway robbery! But, most billboard companies are monopolies in their area, so they can get away with unconscionable rates like that.

[Cha]

30. I think it will catch on like wildfire.. and we're doing our part if we can't afford to

donate right now by simply spreading the word.

[kentauros]

31. That's true

And I'll be doing a little of both

[Cha]

32. Good! Thank you!

[kentauros]

33. More than happy to help in any way I can,
