I agree, it's just over the top to protest at someone's funeral. Do it before, after but not during or even on the same day...just bad form and rude, IMO.
I cut down the quote, but it's all very twisted and not representative of most religious folk, to be sure. I suspect some very seriously repressed people here. You'll note the only sins he seems to be concerned with are all sexual in nature. Guess he's ok with greed, sloth, pride and the like....
