Holy cow, I only just clocked this and at ED, of all places: Fred Phelps successfully sued for 11 million dollars for "protesting" at the funeral of a Marine from Maryland who died in Iraq.

Well, Phelps' "church" consists pretty much of himself, his kids, their spouses and children. I suppose by some standards one guy's batshit crazy family constitutes a religion, but most folks I talk to are dubious.

I note that in the rest of the article they refer to it as a cult, and say that while he calls it a Baptist church it isn't officially affiliated with any Baptists.
