For what?

The Westboro Baptist Church is a corporation. Its revenue comes from lawsuits and subsequent settlements. Fred's lengthy illness was probably eating into the corporate profits, so they "fired" him, relieving them of any obligation to pay for his health care.

I wonder if Fred has signed up for Obamacare yet?

Because they are cowards ... they will not face/allow the type of protest or accept the type of distress they routinely impose on other bereaved.

NEW JERSEY

Clergyman removed from churches in the Newark Archdiocese following credible sexual abuse charges can be buried in their ceremonial robes, according to a report on NorthJersey.com.

The policy, approved by Archbishop John J. Myers and the Presbyteral Council in November, also mandates that obituaries not include the time, date or location of the funeral, the report said. The funeral also isn't allowed to take place in a church where the priest worked or lived.

The archdiocese's goal is to keep the funerals out of the spotlight and avoid giving "more pain back to the community than they've already been through," Joe, did you write this?? spokesman Jim Goodness told the website. A letter to priests at the Newark Archdiocese's 961 churches also indicated the policy was implemented to protect the priests' families and avoid negative media coverage, according to the report

Victims rights groups assert that credibly accused religious figures should not have the status of a priest when they're laid to rest. One group, Road to Recovery Inc, is upset that priests removed from their posts can be buried in Mass vestments and that other priests are encouraged to attend, the report said.

Statement by New Jersey SNAP leader Mark Crawford (732-632-7687, mecrawf@comcast.net)

Once again, for clearly selfish reasons, Newark Catholic officials are taking secretive steps to reduce public attention on predator priests. Shame on them.

Church officials will claim that this is about being sensitive to victims. It's not. Church officials' use of the phrase "negative publicity" shows their true intent: it's about keeping predator priests out of the news. Church officials know that every time a child molesting cleric is mentioned in public, other victims, witnesses and whistleblowers might step forward. Preventing such disclosures continues to be a top priority in the Catholic hierarchy.

(SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, is the world’s oldest and largest support group for clergy abuse victims. We’ve been around for 25 years and have more than 15,000 members. Despite the word “priest” in our title, we have members who were molested by religious figures of all denominations, including nuns, rabbis, bishops, and Protestant ministers. Our website is SNAPnetwork.org)

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The Rev. Fred Phelps Sr., who founded a Kansas church widely known for its protests at military funerals and anti-gay sentiments, is in a care facility, according to a church spokesman.

Phelps, 84, is being cared for in a Shawnee County facility, Westboro Baptist Church spokesman Steve Drain said Sunday. Drain wouldn't identify the facility.

This thread is about a guy who hates Catholics (among others). And you make it about how he did PR work for Catholics.

Myopia.

Yeah, see Joe, you're really just dumb. He helped the catholic bigotry against gays cause with his activities. I'm sure if you asked him, he would say he likes that aspect of your church.
