Is the Westboro Baptist Church seriously not against incest?

Question

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Phelps:

Phelps says that he is a preacher who believes that homosexuality and its acceptance have doomed most of the world to eternal damnation. The church at Westboro which he leads has 71 confirmed members, 60 of whom are related to Phelps through blood or marriage or both.

I realize they are insane, but isn't there something in the bible (since they take it so literally) that says people shouldn't commit incest? I mean, the only reason they don't hate black people (although they are clearly racist) is because it doesn't say to be racist in the bible.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church#Racism:

[Fred Phelps] says that it differs from homosexuality in that "God never said it is an abomination to be Black."

Answer 1

In your second paragraph you started with "I realize they are insane."

You answered your own question.

Answer 2

I'm confused.

Are you thinking that because all those people are related to him that they have committed incest? As far as I know they haven't, its just his kids, inlaws and grandkids etc.

If you put something in that first link related to incest, the link is not working. Maybe post the link again?

Its prohibited in Leviticus 20 and probably other places too that I can't think of at the moment.

Answer 3

"Two of his sons, Mark and Nate, who allege that their father is a child abuser who repeatedly beat them with a leather strap and a mattock handle (similar to an axe handle)"

He's a psycho and he's old so I hope he dies soon.

Edit: "steve b MC, Nobama please", they are racist. They are Anti-Semitic, Anti-Irish and Anti-Swedish.

Answer 4

I think you watch to much TV. Where did you get the idea they are racists?

They are a bunch of nuts but they are not racist.

Being against homosexuality does not make one a racist, homosexuals are not a race of people.

Homosexuality is an abomination and that is all they are saying.
