Why don't you just ignore them instead? If they don't represent Christianity (as I'm sure everyone agrees they don't), who really gives a shit? Don't you guys have more important things to worry about? Like all these priest sex scandals? I think those do much worse for Christianity's reputation (especially Catholicism's rep) than Westboro.

Oh, yeah, and Lady Gaga sucks. If I weren't an atheist, I might be tempted to join Westboro just to get rid of her.

Right, like I said, you are preaching to the damned choir.

Anyway, how are "we" going to fight them? It's not like this is something for IMFDB members to do. And personally, I don't think people on the fringe are worthy of attention. It's not like anyone who matters takes them seriously.
