It would be better to simply ignore them.Bryan Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482696991279345516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-35049034445923029942016-11-07T07:11:23.924-06:002016-11-07T07:11:23.924-06:00If Westboro Baptist Church is really a group that ...If Westboro Baptist Church is really a group that has only 40 members, the media should be ashamed to have given them a platform that is much larger than they deserve. Their positions are generally retrograde and out of sync with the world of today. Are they not aware of how high a percentage of Julliard students probably have their sights set on perfecting a Bach partita, chorale or cantata? It was Bach whose signature was SDG: To God alone the Glory.

The Westboro Baptists seem to be a kind of caricature of what a backward, hidebound Christian congregation is imagined to be.Bryan Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482696991279345516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-41202047818647415112016-11-05T12:19:17.491-05:002016-11-05T12:19:17.491-05:00Ha; that they don't respond bespeaks a differe...Ha; that they don't respond bespeaks a different sort of lacuna in their education.
