DAYS OF LOT: SATANISTS PERFORM ‘GAY RITUAL’ AT WESTBORO GRAVESITE

A group of satanists say they’ve given the controversial Westboro Baptist Church a taste of its own medicine, performing a same-sex ritual at the grave of the mother of the church’s founder. 
Members of the Satanist Temple performed on Sunday what its spokesman describes as a “pink mass”  an admittedly made-up ritual, celebrating gay love, at the grave in Meridian, Miss. Spokesman Lucien Greaves  doffed a headdress made of horns as two male couples, and a female couple recited scripture, lit candles and made out over the grave. 
Members then posthumously declared Catherine Johnston, the mother of Westboro’s founder Fred Phelps, a lesbian. The ritual was designed to get a rise of the WBC, the satanists said, an organization that’s earned a national reputation for getting a rise out of others. 
Phelps is the leader of the Westboro Baptist Church, a fundamentalist congregation infamous for picketing at the funerals of celebrities, victims of disaster and terrorism, and U.S. soldiers killed in combat. 

The church, located in Topeka, Kan., believes that the whole of the United States is in a state of sin because of gays. Members often protest at funerals carrying signs that read “God hates fags.” More
