Last Saturday, my aunts Vicki and Janice and I zipped over to Topeka to hear Nate Phelps. The second son of the infamous pastor of Westboro Baptist Church (Rev. god hates fags), Nate escaped from his violent, hate-filled home at midnight of his 18th birthday.
Nate has shared his story in many places, but last Saturday was the first time he spoke out in his hometown.

Dagney,
Don't know if you knew, but Nate had a local KC visit to Darrel Ray's house (author of "The God Virus") last week.
About 25-30 local KC FreeThinkers (including at least one Christian to my knowledge) from all over Kansas City were there at the BBQ.
There was a film crew shooting the BBQ and Topeka visit.
My understanding is that there will be a documentary about Nate and local Kansas City folks will be prominently featured.
If you see Cole, ask him one day. He was there and was interviewed among many others.
