This guy has been in the news off and on over the years: Fred Phelps. Lately he has escalated the bizarreness by picketing funerals of fallen soldiers and veterans hospitals. He is more known for his loud and crass denunciations of gays. He is the founder and leader of the Westboro Church in Topeka, Kansas of which all the members are his family.
An investigative journalist took the time to compile a damning expose of Phelps and his cultic church including interviewing the two sons who were finally able to completely break all contact with their perverse family.
Reading a blow by blow description of a narcissist in action is rather like watching a train wreck...sickening, but impossible to avert your eyes. If you're up for it, you can check out the Fred Phelps Expose.
I made the mistake of reading the FP expose. It is very toxic. I think you should put a stronger warning about it.

ReplyDeleteThe original article was taken down at some point. I've checked around and can't find this article re-posted anywhere. Sorry about that.
ReplyDeleteAnna,
ReplyDeleteI read the Phelps expose awhile back and I think I found it again on another site:

If this is it, please confirm.
This does look like it is it! It is even more comprehensive. Thank you for finding it. All the best to you.
