Phelps family says George Carlin is in hell
George Carlin in Hell, Phelps-Roper Says
Tue Jun 24, 2008 at 10:39:39 AM

By JUSTIN KENDALL

Irreverent comedian George Carlin died Sunday.

A coworker sent me an e-mail wondering if Fred Phelps and family were celebrating Carlin’s entrance into hell. I had no idea, so I e-mailed Shirley Phelps-Roper.

Roper was quick to reply:

We are actually talking about George Carlin – but as yet I don't see this getting anyone in the gut. You see George Carlin was just a pervert and everyone knew he was a pervert – so what is to say – he was a pervert? However, there is that part where his nonsense had some First Amendment ramification and so I am just watching and listening to see what anyone says. Now Tim Russert – that was just the B A L M!! He needed to receive a face to face God smack and to be cut off in his middle age because of the rebellion that he taught to this nation! YIKES! He tried to put big patches on the Priest Rape Children shame and he told the nation that God was a liar about the fags. Yes – fist raised, flipped off rebellion against God and HIS standards! Bad plan Tim – but then he knows that now.

Stay tuned – I'll tell when we get some resolution within the day.

Thanks!
Shirley

As always, Phelps-Roper kept her word. I received a follow-up e-mail at 10 p.m.


Upon review of the long Carlin history and even more recent history – Carlin played a fag in The Prince of Tides – and he was speaking for fags and saying in essence that the statement to them of the standards of God caused fear and shame and more blather that equals rebellion against God in a big way.

Carlin is in hell, so we will post a video news tomorrow and we intend to picket his funeral.

Thanks!
Shirley


I was surprised Phelps-Roper didn’t mention Carlin’s role as a hitchhiker trading blow-jobs for rides in Kevin Smith’s Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back or Cardinal Ignatius Glick, who tries to make the Catholic church cool with the “Catholicism Wow!” marketing campaign, which replaces Christ on the cross with the winking, pointing, thumbs-up giving "Buddy Christ" in Dogma.

1. Wherever George is or isn't, he's laughing his ass off.

7. Oh, it's not you ...

I just wonder why stories about them get printed at all.

They are funny. That's all they are.

(But not funny like Carlin was funny ... more funny in a "oh, how sad" kinda way.)

13. cmon
I have a hard time believing these Phelps nimrods are even serious

According to them - EVERYBODDY (except them) is going to hell.

The Phelps' heaven would be an exceedingly boring place.

If there *is* a heaven, carlin is doing stand-up routines for God. How ironic would that be?

He could do a Heaven/Hell thang, like he did with baseball and football...

15. In other news, a bear shat in the woods.
The Pope is indeed Catholic and General Franco is still dead.

You would think that the Phelps clan would have appreciated his (and Kevin Smith's) satirical take on "Buddy Christ." Oh, well.

18. Now here is a man who would actually want Phelps at his funeral...
would, that is, if he were there to run the show. Sadly, not.

19. Good news for the folks in Hell!
Fuck you Fred Phelps. I hope you choke.

I really hope you get laughed at during the funeral. George would want it that way.

23. Headline: "Phelps in Hell" said Phelps Family at Phelps' Funeral
"His last words were America is..." said Bitchy Phelps his oldest daughter, "The fact that he called Fag America just plain old 'America' really disgusted all of us. Clearly the Demon Fag got him on his death bed. God Hates Fred Phelps. We hope he rots."

26. "I'd like to go to Heaven for the climate, and Hell for the company"
I think Mark Twain said that, but Carlin would probably appreciate it, whether he actually believed either location existed or not.
