Spiritual supremacists protest Steve McNair’s funeral
by Christian Grantham - 1:15 pm - July 9th, 2009
The Baptists are out reminding the nation that adultery was Steve McNair’s one way ticket to Hell. Here’s a photo as well (via @callrw).
UPDATE 4:05pm: a few folks on Twitter wanted to make sure I specify that these particular Baptists are the Westboro variety, for what it’s worth.

I’m not Baptist, but let’s be fair about this: these are the poor deluded fools from Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, KS, they of the Phelps “GOD HATES FAGS” CLAN. They are delusional people who are shunned by all who have a shred of decency in their hearts.
I’m not religious but, let’s be clear, these idiots are NOT Baptists. These people live a life of hate and anger fueled by their CRAZY (Dear Leader) father. They are a group of nothings. They are sad sad people on the fringe of society. If this weren’t America, they would not be able to do what they do for MANY reasons, I’m sure.
I don’t recall these freaks doing this at Michael Jackson’s Public Memorial or private funeral. They KNEW it would be their last protest, if they showed their faces.
For those that think they wont protest MJ think again they have it their website to Protest Gary Ind soon go look and yo will see everywhere they are going to protest soon. All I can say is these are some sick Bastards! very sick!
MArk, that does not surprise me at all. They will go where they think it’s safe and hide from the consequences of their absolute MADNESS. If there is a god and he hates anything, he hates these people, I KNOW IT!
When do Baptists ever draw distinctions when they talk about the Islamic terrorists? Now they want to make sure we all known these kind of Baptists aren’t their kind of Baptist. Every word those people are saying out there are straight out of the Bible. If their beliefs are only appropriate on Sundays and not on a street corner during someone’s funeral where the rest of us can see then they aren’t ever appropriate.
Agnosis, their words are out of context and they preach all law, no Gospel. That’s the difference. The Law is there to show us our hopelessness before a holy, righteous God. In Romans 8, Paul says, “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but accoding to the Spirit. (Rom. 8:1-4).
The shadows of the Gospel start in Genesis 3. Though there is judgment of sin, there is still a means of grace, providing for the ultimate redemption of the faithful. God promises a new covenant throughout the Old Testament, in both the Torah and the writings of the Prophets, providing shadows of a Messiah to come - as Paul spoke of in his letter to the church in Rome (chapt. 5), while we were yet helpless, Christ died for the ungodly; God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us….for if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
What the Westboro folks forget is that the condemnation of our sin, while just, is never - by any true prophet - left as a condemnation, because God never leaves His people without saying, “Come to me. Turn from your sin and come to me, and I will receive you and have compassion on you. (Isaiah 55, among others). He outlines redemption over and over again throughout the Scriptures. The hopelessness and condemnation of the law is meant to point us to the Savior by whom we can be reconciled to God through the greatest act of self-sacrificial love ever, straight from the One who defines love from the beginning (Greater love has no man than this: that he should lay down his life for his friends). For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world would be saved through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe in Him is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. (John 3:16-19)
As to the teachings of the Westboro clan, Jesus had words for those who insisted on living by the letter of the law of Moses rather than trusting in the Lord their God and believing in the sacrifice He Himself provided for their redemption: ” Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, on whom you have set your hope. For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote of me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?” (John 5:45).
I don’t have a problem with these people epxressing their beliefs. There isn’t a single Southern Baptist in Nashville willing to stand up and defend marriage like the Phelps do.
We have deified Steve McNair and he defiled the sanctity of marriage with adultery. It was important enough to be mentioned in the Ten Commandments and it’s important enough for us to make McNair’s sin a teaching moment for America. I didn’t vote to ban homosexuals from defiling marriage and celebrating sin in our faces only to praise adulters and stand around and pretend McNair is basking in the glory of God. This man is burning in Hell and the rest of you who defile marriage with adultery will too.
It is not for you or no one else to judge Steve McNair or his salvation. He done a lot of good things for a lot of people including a lot of kids, and the people of the towns that were in need of help after Katrina…. didn’t see a lot of these protesters helping those people! God remembers all things, not just the bad, and He is a forgiving God of love not hate. Steve made mistakes, but nothing he couldn’t be forgiven for. I would think he has a better chance of being in Heaven than those who are judging him and protesting. God bless him and his family.
Whatever happened to people having respect? Funerals are sacred moments in people’s lives and no one should disrespect them ever under any circumstance. As far as I’m concerned, these so called religious folks are the true sinners and don’t understand the word of the Lord in the least. As a Roman Catholic, I think that I can safely say this speaks for most true Christian worshipers. God Bless the friends and family of Steve McNair and may God hold them in his hands and carry them through this dark hour.
What he did to his wife was wrong. So what, he did some good for charities and so forth. She didnt deserve that. I can imagine how she feels. If he would’ve been at home with his family his a$$ will still be alive. He needs his a$$ kicked, his son is almost her age. He had no business even looking at that little girl. I am so sick of everybody talking about what he has done. What he has done for real cost him his life. Mechelle is good, if it was me I would cremate his a$$.
It’s funny to hear people say “Don’t be judgemental,” because they usually don’t know what judgemental means. Like so many other verses, people just pick and choose verses and do not read them as part of the bigger chapter. Jesus was condeming hypocritical judgement. Jesus taught that with our fellow Christians, we should “go and show him his fault, just between the two of you” (Matt 8:15). Adultery is a sin and if my brother in Christ is committing adultery, I have the responsibility to condemn those actions. But if I too am committing adultery, then I am guilty of pointing out the sadust in his eyes while ignorning the plank in my own. That is where the bible says do not be judgemental, as we will be judged the same.
However I will say that I do not believe any of us who are Christ believers should state that any one person is in hell. Yes, we know that Steve had been committing adultury and the bible clearly says adulterers will go to hell. However, we do not know his heart. Was he praying to God for forgiveness and to help him overcome his personal struggle? Had he ended the relationship with plans to rectify his marriage? I do not know, and sadly we will never know.
I SAW THIOSE IDIOTS PROTESTING YESTERDAY. THEY ALSO HAD CHILDREN WITH THEM PROTESTING. A FUNERAL IS A SACRED TIME.. ALL IT WAS, WAS A SHOW. WHAT NEEDED TO HAPPEN WAS. THEY NEEDED A GOOD OLE FASHIONED ASS BEATING.
Let God judge him…
His wife and kids don’t need this right now. I know she is going through alot. My prayer’s are with her and their children and family. Stay Bless “McNair Family”
im with reese, he was a fool and a womanizer. did he deserve to be killed, apparently he did because he was…end of story. the girl lost her mind over him because she was naive and inexperienced, she was arrested and sleeping with a married man, she felt like she was disgraced and she was, thanks to him…i hope they both rest in peace and my sympathies with their families who have to bear the loss…….p.s. yes her funeral was small, she was just a girl, and lost her parents to murder in Iran…small family for her….all she had was her beloved Steve.
“Ye who is without sin cast the first stone.” If you are without sin, you have the right to be negative and must be a very special person because we all have fallen short and have sinned. The wages of sin is death. We are not to judge one another. For judging is a sin in itself. Steve was a Christian man and his earthly deeds are now in the hands of the great Man above who will do the judging. We should remember the good that he done in his 36 years of life as a whole and not dwell on what happen in the last 6 months. We will never know the true story or that what we are hearing is true or not from the media. Technology can changes pictures in the blink of an eye and news reporters can make a story tell what they want it to be and what people want to hear. As we have seen in the past week there is a vast number of persons who loved Steve, as well as his family. What is done is done. Now we must pray for his family; encourage them for the Lord will never leave nor forsake them.

I agree with MichaelinLV and it may have been a typo but do read Matthew 18:15 and also read Matthew 7 on Judging other. Much Love and Prayer to the entire Mcnair family and Ms Kazemi’s as well. God Bless.
Deceit is always reqarding. How many men and women will not follow the law that states: honor thy mother and father all the days of thy life and trust not in thy own wisdom.
Everything that goes on in the dark..comes to light. We see Michael Jackson and his contigent of people are a result of living by thy own rules.
Your name and character that is the only that is valuable and the only thing that you leave this world with intact…in other words, you take it with you.
Choose this day, whom you will follow……I am in this club!!!
There is nothing his family can do to save him from the flames of Hell. The Bible is clear on adultery. Sometimes good people go to Hell and God’s people have been given an example to teach our children that the cost of adultery is an eternity in Hell.
What ever you are saying is against God’s will too. We aren’t to judge either. Steve and his family are some of the best people you will ever know..Whatever happened behind those closed doors want know one know. If all who have sinned go to hell then you guys are going to be condemned as well. I am talking to you idiots who are trying to say that steve will burn in hell by what ever he did. As for the Jews they are God’s chosen people and this is the word written in stone in the Bible..And to all you people who support Steve and his Family I say thank you. The worst is that so many protesters don’t just waste their energy on this type of thing , we are in the Patriot Guard Act. We sheild the protestors of war from the men and women who have lost their lives protecting our Nation. We sheild their families from the idiots who are there protesting. No wonder America’s job rates are low. These kind of people have nothing better to do than do this type of thing. I loved Steve McNair and knew him and his family personaly. Wonder if you guys have ever worked a cotton field, probably not. THese people have always been hard workers and all the success they made they made it honestly.
God bless your family,Steve, and may God heal your family and from this hurt you are going through. As I have shedded tears today We thank you for all you have done for our community in the football league and what you have done to inspire others to be as well to help others cause there is no greater joy than to see the smile on peoples faces who you help inb there time of need.
I am form Mississippi and live here in Nashville. I am proud of trying to do right and not judging people.
As for Micheal Jackson, You guys can’t judge him no more, cause he at the judges chambers right now.
If those crazy church aliens show up to protest anything about michael jackson, they better kp that ass off 2300 jackson st or somebody will gone get moon walked on. Gary IN don’t play that
to kato,
you have no idea on what you are talking about.Steve could have asked forgiveness before he was shot to death and he was forgiven, so dont give these people that line of crap..GOD DOES FORGIVE
There are a lot of people who profess to know their bibles and God, but haven’t a clue. Let us be clear, if you are a christian and believe in God and your bible, then you know that sin, unless repented of, will lead one to hell. Of course Jesus died for our sins, but he died so we could have freedom and change from our sins, not die in adultery and be deified by a naive public, many of whom do THE SAME THING in one form or another, and so quite naturally begin frantically strumming the “Don’t throw the first stone, and don’t judge” banjo. They do not understand that do unto to others as you would have them do unto you is not a command, but a commentary on human nature. So, it makes perfect sense for someone morally impure, to look admiringly at Steve Mcnair’s life and start rhapsodizing about righteousness, totally oblivious that his life ended in wickedness. It doesn’t matter how righteous a life a person leads, what matters is how it ends. It says in Ezekiel, and this was written for our learning, “[24] But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.” What I am seeing on this website is by and large an ignorant populace who does not know their bible at all, but know American Idol and all the other television shows, and can’t tell you a lick of what the bible is about. Yet they will confidently comment on it, as if they are somehow experts, and as if their uninformed opinion is carries any weight at all. They would do well to be sobered, to turn to God, and allow this death to work good in the future for all of us.
These fools are saying “Adultery is Steve Mcnair’s one way ticket to hell”. With all due respect those words are not out of the bible. The bible clearly states that sex out of wedlock is a sin. So is overeating, stealing, murder, jealousy, etc. None of those sins send you to hell. An extra-marital relationship will not send you to hell. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.
The ONLY thing that will keep you from entering Heaven is not excepting Jesus as your Savior. I pray at one point Steve had asked Jesus for salvation, if so I’ll get to talk football with him one day when my sinful life is over as well .
Without Jesus and his forgiveness we are all doomed.
“No adulterers shall inherit the kingdom of God” - 2nd Corinthians
What part of that do you not understand? Jesus said those who love me “keep my commandments” If you have looked at pornography you are guilty of adultery as well - Matthew 5:28.
We are all adulterers but that does not justify the continued lifestyle of sin. You are to
repent and turn from your sin. If you do not repent and just keep sinning then you WILL WIND UP IN HELL! That is not “judgmental” that is what he said.
“Depart from me you that practice lawlessness” - Jesus
This no judgment but the unmitigated facts…Steve M. was absolutely wrong.
He may have had a stellar football career, however, his life was a lie. His main focus should have been being a role model and father to his kids and a good husband to his wife, but, he chose to use his fame and fortune to lure young girls into his bed. No telling what [STD] danger he exposed his wife to. In fact, she may be experiencing the devastation of that right now. I hope not.
MR. M. was undeniably wrong and it was shameful the way he was carrying on with that woman and most likely countless others. Fortunately, the mentally deranged woman didn’t kill his whole family in her quest to have him all to herself.
What a memory he left for his children. Shameful at best.
Hi - really good site you have established. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to write a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a merchandising firm. I have always enjoyed working with computing machines and am trying to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).

For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.
The ONLY thing that will keep you from entering Heaven is not excepting Jesus as your Savior. I pray at one point Steve had asked Jesus for salvation, if so I’ll get to talk football with him one day when my sinful life is over as well .
Without Jesus and his forgiveness we are all doomed.
“No adulterers shall inherit the kingdom of God” - 2nd Corinthians
What part of that do you not understand? Jesus said those who love me “keep my commandments” If you have looked at pornography you are guilty of adultery as well - Matthew 5:28.
We are all adulterers but that does not justify the continued lifestyle of sin. You are to
repent and turn from your sin. If you do not repent and just keep sinning then you WILL WIND UP IN HELL! That is not “judgmental” that is what he said.
“Depart from me you that practice lawlessness” - Jesus

This no judgment but the unmitigated facts…Steve M. was absolutely wrong.
He may have had a stellar football career, however, his life was a lie. His main focus should have been being a role model and father to his kids and a good husband to his wife, but, he chose to use his fame and fortune to lure young girls into his bed. No telling what [STD] danger he exposed his wife to. In fact, she may be experiencing the devastation of that right now. I hope not.
MR. M. was undeniably wrong and it was shameful the way he was carrying on with that woman and most likely countless others. Fortunately, the mentally deranged woman didn’t kill his whole family in her quest to have him all to herself.
What a memory he left for his children. Shameful at best.
Hi - really good site you have established. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to write a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a merchandising firm. I have always enjoyed working with computing machines and am trying to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
