I saw this story originally at the ACLU blog, and had to share.

It seems that members of the Westboro Baptist Church (the home of the vitriolic Fred Phelps, owners of the website godhatesfags.com and justly vilified for their picketing of military soldiers) decided to protest against the University of Chicago (for general reasons), the Chicago Theological Seminary (for religious reasons), and the University’s former employment of Barack Obama in the Law School (for racial[?] reasons) on March 10th.

In response, more than 100 students gathered in demonstration against the Church protesters. They didn’t shout, they didn’t provoke; instead, they mocked. They passed out leaflets explaining that ‘God hates figs’ (based on a biblical passage wherein Jesus rails against the fig no less). A fraternity stripped to their boxers and danced to “I’m Coming Out” and the infamous “It’s Raining Men”.  Students from the CTS held signs reading “Chicago Theological Seminary: Question, Teach, Transform.”

There are fabulous pictures at the above link. Enjoy.
