A non-profit has bought a house across from the anti-gay church and turned it into a gay-rights center, complete with a rainbow flag.

The Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan., might have finally met its match.

The church, which is known for its extreme ideologies and anti-gay views, now has a neighbor swathed in the rainbow colors of the gay pride flag.

Non-profit Planting Peace bought a house across from the church – notorious for its "God hates Fags" and "God hates America" slogans – and decided to turn it into a gay rights center, according to Gawker.com.

The house – which has been named "Equality House" – even has a pride flag flying from a 30-foot pole.

In this instance, I find myself on the side of the gays.

I am too......While the exterior colors of the house is an architectural faux pas, I suspect the interior will be sylishly decorated and the landscaping carefully cultivated to blend in with the natural surroundings in order to promote an harmonious balance with nature.....

maybe this so called organization that moved in across the street will help the other neighbors sell their homes for a steep price

Oh, you mean like to their fellow packers?

That's common in condo or townhouse complexes. The streets are often too narrow for on-street parking, and the fire department won't allow it.

That could be in some areas of the subdivision. But my friend’s house is a large detached home on a pretty wide class B street. It is not narrow.
