The Westboro Baptist Church Response:

Thank God for $10.9M!!!

WBC Prayed for it to be $109M!!!

WBC will still preach at funerals!!

Thank you america! You propped up the pudgy-faced God hater to carry your water for you, with the stated goal of bankrupting WBC so we can't preach! Guess what? In less than 24 hours our words have been spread to every corner of the earth via media outlets we couldn't PAY to publish our message. Yes indeed, there are the words, in bright, bold color every place you look, in every corner of the earth. We would have paid $10.9 billion for that kind of coverage!

Guess what else. As long as the Lord our God gives us breath, and He continues to kill your G.I. Joe wannabe brat kids, we will still preach at funerals. Take everything we own, and we'll still preach everywhere the Holy Ghost bids us go! We don't need your filthy money. As our forefathers the prophets did, so will we

"They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented" (Heb. 11:37).

We keep telling you this, and you keep disregarding it, but we'll tell you one more time. The only way you're going to stop this preaching is to kill us all, and if God allows you to accomplish that, it is only because He is about to draw His sword upon all of you.
