Yesterday occurred a terrible aircrash in my country, the Netherlands, to a Turkish airplane. 9 people died and there are many severely wounded.
Now one of our papers writes that members of the “Westboro Baptist Church” will come over here to “disturb the funeral” because they think the aircrash is a punishment of God.
What is this Westboro Baptist Church? Does it have many members? And what is their line of “reasoning”?

It seems John the Baptist was like Jesus’ #1 disciple and also highly respected. As it happened his head was cut off as a favor to one of King Herod’s dancers. What if she had asked for Jesus’ head instead or what if she had asked for some boring gift like a gold necklace? How would this have changed Christianity?
