The original question: Is Fred Phelps burning in Hell? I suppose you'd have to believe in a burning Hell for him to go there, & I don't. That being said, I think the man has a lot to answer for. But THAT being said, I'm only a human being. Who knows how God will judge Mr. Phelps? I don't. & the previous poster who said that he did a lot for Black persons was right. & however distasteful his views on homosexuals may have been, he never harmed one to my knowledge. So in the end, he was an ass. No more, no less.
