Hi Megan, here are the 10 Questions! You can just write them in here and reply to this email. Thanks!
1. I loved your Lady Gaga parody video. How do you stay abreast of pop culture without letting it corrupt you as it has everyone else?
The short answer to this question is “the mercy of God.” When you won’t receive the love of the truth, you have His faithful promise: “God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thes. 2:11. You believe the societal deceit about God, because you love those lies that comfort you in sin; God has given you over to a “reprobate mind” (Rom. 1:28).
But if you’re asking what mechanism keeps us from being “corrupted” or taken in by the lies you tell, here’s the answer: love of the truth, which is a gift from God. When you love truth, you seek it, you read it, you believe it, you live it. You view the things this world has to offer in terms of their usefulness to serving God. What usefulness is there in listening to the music of perverted musicians? It can be stress relief, parody fodder, etc.. When you know and love the standards of God with respect to their filthy manner of life, you can listen to the music, recognize that their message is destructive vanity, get what benefit it offers, and move on.
2. What could Lady Gaga (or people like her) do to right herself in the eyes of the Lord?
Short answer: obey God!
Longer answer: put away your filthy, self-serving manner of life and obey God! Gaga is just the latest in a long line of nasties who are loud and proud of their truly perverse ways and do all they can to teach rebellion against God. The only answer is to repent: change your mind with respect to your I’m-going-to-do-what-I-fat-well-please-no-matter-what-the-sovereign-God-that-created-me-requires ways, and change your conduct to match (i.e. obey! Stop the fornicating, stop the adultery, stop lying about God, and do your duty to God by publishing His standards).
Here’s the only problem: if God has given you a strong delusion such that you believe the lies of this generation (“God loves everyone,” “it’s okay to be gay,” etc.), then how will you ever change your mind, let alone your conduct? You can’t, of course. “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished.” 2 Pet. 2:9. Gaga can’t do anything to “right herself” if God doesn’t give her repentance, and it’s not looking good for her. By all available evidence, God hates this simple slut, she hates Him, and she’s on a one-way path to Hell.
3. I think your protests, signs, and statements are just hilarious! While you’re definitely a performance artist, does it bother you that people don’t take you seriously?
I love this new style of absurdist counter-protesting we’ve been encountering this year! It’s great for us, because it draws so much attention to the words we so diligently work to publish. It’s also much better for you when you have signs that say “The Cake Is A Lie” instead of “God Loves Everyone;” at least with the former you’re not blaspheming God and bringing more punishment on yourselves.
It’s good that you call us “performance artists” – just look at this verse! “For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.” 1 Co. 4:9. The word “spectacle” in that verse literally means, “a public show,” a theatrical production. We get in your faces and we tell you these words, thereby opening ourselves up to mocking and scoffing of every kind from every quarter – and we happily endure it all!
But don’t kid yourself, Zach: plenty of people take us seriously. The fact is that these words strike a chord in the hearts and minds of all who hear them, because they are the words of the True and Living God. “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Heb. 4:12.
4. The end of the world is coming any day now, so what would you like to do on the day BEFORE your last day on Earth? In short, what’s your idea of a “perfect day” for Megan?
Another day that’s exactly like today: where I get to happily engage in these wars of the Lord with my fellow laborers, learning and publishing the true and perfect standards of God with those who serve Him with all their heart, soul, might, mind and strength! (<3!)
5. I work in the adult industry and am curious to know, which is better: Gay porn or straight porn?
Neither. Both are totally depraved and no way to live – and that’s true even if you don’t bring God into it! The porn industry and the fact that it thrives is just evidence that this proud, rebellious generation has no respect for themselves or for the standards of God.
6. Do you have a favorite porn star?
No. “O my soul, come not thou into their secret…” Gen. 49:6. Stay as far from their filth as possible. The end!
7. Many of the models in our industry go through hell (not literally!) to make themselves look good. What do you think of beauty treatments like teeth whitening and anal bleaching? Sinful?
Here’s what you have to realize: when you’re talking about a God-hating rebel, everything they do is abomination! No, seriously – even the sacrifices and hard labor of the wicked is sinful. “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD.” Pr. 15:8. Also, Pr. 21:4 – “the plowing of the wicked is sin.”
And why not just make it simple? Get out of the industry, put away your proud rebellion, and make an honest living. What does that bring us back to? Oh, right: obey God!
8. Are you single, dating, married? What qualities do you look for in a man?
Single! And I just answered this question in another interview, so please don’t be offended that I cut and paste the answer here – life is short! Let me define “total waste of time, effort, resources and brain power” for you: looking for anyone in the male population of this generation of (proud, base, self-obsessed, head-in-the-gutter, incapable-of-getting-his-undeserved-ego-into-anything-smaller-than-a-professional-football-stadium) God-haters who has [A] a clue about the standards of God, let alone [B] any interest in obeying those standards. When there’s no one who even meets the minimum requirements, it seems downright stupid to daydream about other qualities that would make someone “ideal,” don’t you think?
9. There are some male performers in the gay adult industry who are NOT gay but are in fact straight. These straight men have sex with other men in gay porn because the money is better than in straight porn. Are they wrong to do this? Are they deceiving fans?
They’re committing whoredom and teaching rebellion. Of course they’re wrong to do so! But you knew that already – just like they do.
10. I’m gay and I want to join Westboro Baptist Church. How do I get in?
Unlike most “churches” (read: whorehouses, dog kennels, leper colonies), WBC isn’t a social club. Here’s the standard you must meet in order to join a true church of the Jesus Christ: “Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance.” Mt. 3:8. As long as you’re in stiff-necked, hard-hearted rebellion against God, you’re not welcome to be a member of WBC. We apply the same unyielding standards of God to ourselves that we preach to others!
Of course, if you’re just talking about joining us for our church service on a Sunday, come one, come all. Our services are generally at 12 PM, but you might want to call us or send an e-mail before you come – sometimes, we have to move our service time to accommodate our ever-expanding picket schedule. =D
Thanks, Zach!

Thanks again, Megan! If you could, please attach 2 or 3 photos of you that you’d like me to run with this article. I’ll let you know as soon as the article goes live (probably the same day that I receive your answers). Have a good day!
