[quote]"We believe that Fred Phelps is obligated to believe that his mother is now gay in the afterlife," Temple spokesman Lucien Greaves said in a release. "Further, if beliefs are inviolable rights, nobody has the right to challenge our right to believe that Fred Phelps believes that his mother is now gay." Greaves said the idea for the Pink Mass came during the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings when the WBC threatened to protest the funeral of bombing victims. "Members of The Satanic Temple were in Boston, waiting for them, but they failed to show. Later, the WBC issued a statement that they had been present 'in spirit'. We decided that a same-sex couple celebrating ceremony at the grave-site of Fred Phelps's mother was an appropriate way to meet the Westboro Baptists, 'in spirit', but this time on our terms." The Pink Mass ceremony is based on the Mormon practice of baptizing people after their death. The ceremony was performed twice on Sunday. Once with two women kissing over her grave and again with two men. The same-sexed couples expressed their love at the gravesite of Fred Phelps, Jr.’s mother before a high priest of the Satanic Temple, who recited an incantation. The group claims that after a Pink Mass has been performed, every time a same sex couple kisses over a gravesite, the now-gay deceased is pleasured in the afterlife.[/quote] In other news, the Satanic Temple has been recognized by Guinness for creating the most elaborate "yo momma" joke ever.
