My "favorite" cult/sect is the Westboro Baptist Church.

So you've probably heard of the WBC. They're the ones who go to funerals of soldiers and hold up signs that say (CW: homophobia) "GOD HATES FAGS" and "THANK GOD FOR 9/11" and such.


They picketed Dio's funeral, and Mr. Roger's funeral. I think they planned picketing Jeff Hanneman's funeral but backed out realizing Slayer fans would have no problem giving them an old school beatdown regardless of jailtime.

Back in 2010, they picketed at the San Diego Comic-Con, and got trolled HARD.

Here's an old Jezebel article with pictures:

Chasing the dream.
They came to my high school to protest way back in 2003 because they were putting on a production of The Laramie Project. My high school was ghetto as poo poo and they left in about 10 minutes when some crackheads walked over to see what was going on and started yelling.

And I thought that was just a Blackadder episode.

Don't you know Blackadder is a historical documentary?

Multiple Popes have happened a few times. Of course these days there are several, mostly leading tiny offshoot sects that consider themselves the only legitimate Catholics.
