It was founded in 1986 by Donald O. Northrup and Richard H. Wright[1], and became known for participating in charitable endeavors.

It also formerly owned a subsidiary church in Waldo, Florida in the 1980s (led by Donald J. Wright) and a sister church in Cologne, Germany, Christliche Gemeinde Koln[2][3], which had been founded and led by Jones, a Missouri native, from 1981-2008 (initially as a branch of Maranatha Ministries), after which the church continued under newer, independent leadership. It is currently the largest non-Catholic church in the Cologne/Bonn metropolitan area.

The church also maintains a Dove World Outreach Academy in Gainesville, in which students are prohibited from outside contact and work without compensation in selling, packing and shipping of furniture for TS and Company[4].

I must say I applaud these people. Both for their courage and their willingness to be in the press.

Now there's a warning sign. Hope they don't plan any trips to Guyana.

Be careful what you applaud. If they act like neonazis it’s probably because they are.

This is a terrible publicity stunt, which will help only muslims and hurt Christians. It makes Christians look like a bunch of radical reactionaries and fuels all the crap in the media we have to see each week. Every time somebody does something like this the MSM can ride it for weeks and use it to distract from anything offensive being said or done by other people. Don’t give the enemy opportunities to undermine your cause.

So, you think that people should avoid doing things out of the fear that the MSM will criticize them for it, when the MSM is criticizing them for it anyway, whether they do it or not? What's the point? It's kind of like when a parent smacks a kid around at random and one day the kid finally figures out that there is no reason to behave, because he's going to get smacked around whether he's good or bad. Well, the Right/Americans/Christians are going to get smacked around by the MSM whether we behave or not, so we might as well do what we want.

“That is “Westboro”-ish.
Not all muzzies are kooks.”

Some are just not showing symptoms yet. They are all infected.

Moderate muzzies are the most dangerous kind because you never know when they will decided to climb their little ladder in their faith to the next rung to that of jihad .

islam is not a religion it is a form of government and make no mistake that those innocent looking muzzies are here for no other reason that to expand their form of government.

If you don’t think so then you need to start looking much closer at what is happening . A good place to start looking and asking is with the bailout of AIG and how that suddenly turned all their insurance policies sharia compliant . Add to that the health insurance that everyone except for muslis will soon have to carry and now you have found of way for non muslims to be forced to finacialy support islamic jihad .

What do you think they are going to be doing in those 13 stories of offices in the new mosque they intend to build in New York City as their sign of victory over the people of the US ?

Stop buying the lies and wake up.
America is not at war with islam but islam is at war with American and they are intent in changing our way of life.
There is no such thing as a moderate muslim .

??? Bed wetter liberal ???

Comparing Dove Outreach to Westboro Cult is seditious....Dove Outreach hates our enemies....while Wetsboro hates our troops.

As for not all muzzies being “kooks”....when your Prophet is a Pedophile....your religion is all kooky
