Louis Theroux & The Phelps’ - The Most Hated Family in America
by: Rev. DanJournalist Louis Theroux (who had an outstanding series called “Weird Weekends” on BBC2) does a special on the “Fag-Hating Phelps Family” called “The Most Hated Family in America.”
“God is your enemy.” “You will eat your babies.” “God hates fags.” These are just a few of the extremist views held by the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas. Louis Theroux spent three weeks in their company, locking horns with its leaders and talking to the younger members of the family to find out if there’s any chance of them escaping the influence of their elders.
Someone in the forums at the BBC2 web site suggests:
“It’s going to be really interesting to see if they [The Phelps’] can actually explain why they celebrate the death of soldiers in Iraq because they are against homosexuality.”
