Excellent distinction RobNYNY1957, for we all suffer from his mental illness and the similar maladies of his ilk.

@ Chistopher: Thanks for the penguin recipes. Who knew they were so tasty? Oh, and I promise not to alert PETA about your proclivities.

@ Regan DuCasse: You are SO correct. All religious traditions began with some nutjob declaring himself a prophet chosen by God in a dream (or a bush, or by a face on an oddly toasted grilled cheese sandwich).

All those obsessed with Heaven to the detriment of peace on earth need therapy, not followers.

“Actually, guys, Hartline does suffer from mental illness.”

Not quite right. He _has_ mental illness, but we suffer from it.

I think ol’ Jimmy’s trying to be the successor to Pat “don’t call me Marion!” Robertson’s wingnut religious “revelations”!

Timothy’s right– the Phelps clan is evil and wants to force the world to live in their twisted version of reality– but they never BREAK with reality. That’s the definition of “psychosis,” and Hartline’s history and current speech certainly give evidence that he spends much of his time in psychotic episodes.

Incidentally, this is why I did every drug known to mankind but wouldn’t touch ecstasy. I’ve known a long list of people who had nominal, neurotic disorders, who started on X and ended up schizophrenic permanently. If looking at the tranwreck that is Hartline doesn’t convince people to stay away from that stuff, I don’t know what will.

Point taken, Tim.
And how many people agree with him, take him at his word and would chastise you for saying such a thing because Hartline and his son, speak The Truth?

If those folks don’t differentiate…look out below!

Thanks for the link, Timothy. I frequently wonder just how much mental illness has affected the course of human history. I’m thankful that scientists and psychologists have identified mental illness and, in most cases, have identified means of treating and reducing its effects on the individual.

If you want to understand Hartline, it helps to know his history. San Diego Citybeat did an interview in 2005 that has a lot of information.

So the righteous penguins fled from Argentina in disgust at the introduction of same sex marriage, just as the righteous Lot fled from Sodom with his virgin daughters (whom he later shagged in a cave), and God punished the penguins (not the Argentines) by killing them and washing up their dead bodies on the shores of Brazil. What does this tell us, I wonder?

We’ve had this sort of thing before. In 2001 when the UK government equalized the age of consent, Pastor Ray Borlase (not far from where I live) claimed that this was what had caused the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease among British cattle. He pointed out that God had punished our cattle in exactly the same way back in 1967 when gay sex for those over 21 had been legalized. What further proof do you need?
