Just a few hours ago ? which would have been around 2am our time today ? One Direction star Harry Styles took to Twitter to comment on the fact that followers of nutty cult Westboro Baptist Church were picketing at 1D?s live gig in the Sprint Center in Kansas City?
His message read, ?Despite the company outside, I believe in equal rights for everyone. I think God loves all. Thanks for coming to the show though.?
As fans of 1D will most likely know, the extremist followers of WBC have branded 1D ?freaks? and ?crotch-grabbing little perverts.?
In a recent statement that they entitled ?God hates fag enablers,? WBC said it believes 1D are ?a perfect representation of this filthy world and the sin-chasing, fag-enabling, Christ-rejecting UK who has banned WBC from preaching within her borders.?
The statement continued, ?These freaks and their fans think it?s funny for these five perverts to grab each other?s asses on stage.
?They glamorise sin and mock of God?s standards. Their one purpose is to encourage the youth of this generation to pursue every lust their evil hearts can imagine.?
Earlier this month, the Independent reported, ?In an effort to spread its message, Westboro Baptist Church has created a parody of One Direction?s number one single ?One Thing?.
?The evangelical group?s rendition starts: ?We?ll be playing it cool/ When God?s wrath is on you/ None of you will be brave/ When god ends this human race?.?
They group have also vowed to picket one of Taylor Swift?s live gigs in August, and said of her, ?She works her ?girl next door? country-singer shtick, while hopping from one young man to the next and strutting across the world stage like a proud whore.?
The evangelical extremist group was the focus of a Louis Theroux?s documentary in 2007 that was entitled, The Most Hated Family in America. In it, Theroux interviewed the church?s leader Fred Phelps, who spawned the group?s slogan ?God hates fags.?
However, Harry didn?t let the horrible debacle get him down for long, and added on Twitter ?God 8 a sandwich? before posting, ?Looking forward to the show tonight?
?Kansas City we?ll be with you in about 3 minutes .xx?
The WBC really are sickening aren?t they?! Here?s a recent news report about the cult?
