If one point I'd love to drive home with bigots of every stripe:
That there are good and bad hominids of every stripe including those who identify as devoutly religious.
The Westboro freaks include the absolutely most vile creature I ever came face to face with, Fred Phelps, whose spittle lightly showered me as he yelled inches from my face, "damn me to hell" proclamations. The other teenager in my class who was subjected to this committed suicide. It was 1976.
I just watched the movie "Boy Erased", depicting the horrific treatment a teenager endured at one of those "conversion camps" before he committed suicide.
Xtians, you've got a lot of lost ground to make up for your most hate-filled sects.
