My Eulogy for Fred Phelps



I’m not one to wish death upon people, or to celebrate the death of anyone. No matter how much I may not like a person, I consider life to be an amazing thing, and find any loss of life to be tragic. That being said, there are very few people in this world that I detest to the point where I think the world would be a better place without them, and Fred Phelps is one of them. He has spent his life preaching hate and intolerance in the name of supposed religious righteousness. In reality, he is a hateful bigot that has earned his place in Hell, if such a place exists. Most people that know me know that I am not very religious, but I was under the impression that God is loving and forgiving. Everything that Fred Phelps has spewed from his mouth has done nothing but promote hate, bigotry, and violence in the world. He is a horrible, horrible human being, and I will not mourn his death.
