That is truly one of the saddest parts of the video that I saw.

So now, learning is at a great height in the world, far beyond what it was in the age when Christ appeared; and now the world, by learning and wisdom, do not know God ... Learned men ... scorn to submit their reason to divine revelation, to believe any thing is above their comprehension; and so being wise in their own eyes they became fools." -- Jonathan Edwards

Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I'm come;

Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
I would love to get in an arguing match with them. All they do is call people names. I would love to call Fred Phelps a "fag d*ke" and a "gay loving sodomite" and see what he does next. He wouldn't expect and wouldn't know what to say.
This is a British documentary and the presenter, Louis Theroux, specialises in a deadpan examination of those on the wilder fringes of human activity. (Other examples being survivalists, the Aryan Nation and WWF wrestling).
Because of this, and lack of other exposure, Fred and Shirley Phelps are the face of American Christianity in Britain. Apart from Jerry Falwell, no longer with us, the only other one at all known is Ted Haggard.
__________________ The only position that leaves me with no cognitive dissonance is atheism. It is not a creed. Death is certain, replacing both the siren-song of Paradise and the dread of Hell. Life on this earth, with all its mystery and beauty and pain, is then to be lived far more intensely: we stumble and get up, we are sad, confident, insecure, feel loneliness and joy and love. There is nothing more; but I want nothing more.

What??! How can they be the face of American Christianity?
Don't the Brits recognize this guy, Louis, is (as you say) an interviewer of the wild fringe?? and, that in America, he's just a notorious BAD example of...everything? He's just what we have to put up with in our free society.

Yes he would.
They encounter people calling them all the time, like one documentary said, "they deal in that all the time, most people never or rarely encounter a group like the phelps, and have no idea how to properly deal with them"

Unfortunately, I don't think it's just in Britain.

You're = the contraction for you are. Used in a sentence - You're not very bright are you.
Your = shows possession. Used in a sentence - Your misuse of the contraction you're is grossly offensive.
He is that Colorado preacher who enjoyed getting massages from men with happy endings. In his church he preached against Sodomites, and then he turned out to be one. LOL
