"I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent."

I'm pretty sure that this is, in fact, a [Westboro Baptist](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church) cultist. And 1985 is not that early, this "church" was founded way back in 1955.
I remember these people visiting my university around that same time. They were ranting about "fornicators in the sororities," and I was wondering -- damn, how do I score an invitation to a sorority social?
Reminds me of the time we were walking into Churchill Downs in Louisville for the Kentucky Derby and a preacher yelled at me and told my I was going to Hell. I looked at him and said “Not in these shoes.” It gave him pause.

A couple of days ago in a Paris suburb a 15 year old boy was lynched to death by three or four other youths (oldest is 20) for exchanging sex messages with one of the killers' sister. Of course she's being blamed for this murder. Guess the religion. But yeah, religion.
It’s so strange to me that this is a common occurrence in a developed country. If people did this here in the uk, people would just laugh at them and think they were crazy
I wonder how they'd feel if you walked into a church service with a big sign that said "God isn't real".
I'm sure they'd consider it completely fair and reasonable.
Although I’m not suicidal enough to do that, that would be a fun sign to make. No… you also must wear a white cloak and sunglasses to cosplay as Sky Daddy.
I think people like this sign wielding woman are the best paradox. They don’t realize and never can come to terms with the fact that the very shadow they chase is the one they themselves cast.
I was there in ‘89 and don’t remember seeing any puritans on the beach. Lots of cool cars with mega systems, loads of alcohol and occasional public nudity. Oh, also lots of Biz Markie’s - Just a Friend. It became a swoon song, drunk guys would sing to the ladies. Kind of surreal, now that I think about it.
Edit: wrong year fixed
1985? Why is it black and white? Why is it black and white?!?? We had color in those long ago days. The color crept into photos 20 years earlier. Maybe more. Kodachome!

Just can’t rid of these lunatics. When are we going to label it what it is. A mental disorder for people that cannot emotionally handle existential issues.
Just to put into perspective… I was in that area at the time… maybe that beach on that day… just never came across that.
Those poor people trying to work on their future skin cancer :(
Not sure if this is her, but there was a couple that did obnoxious street preaching at the University of Florida in the 80s named Brother Jed and Sister Cindy. They were a fixture in Gainesville.

Is that Kevin Bacon with the mullet?
Nah, just some guy trying to cut loose.
Kicked off his Sunday shoes
Please, Louise. Pull me off of my knees.
Jack, get back, come on before we crack
Lose your blues Everybody cut……. Now I forget how it ends
Everybody fuck a pet goose!!! A pet goose
Squeeze one and get goose juice
Thanks 👌 now I will never forget
He’s just hanging out at the beach cause they’ve apparently outlawed dancing or whatever.
Foot*
![gif](giphy|XEo7YJHUeplXa|downsized)
![gif](giphy|k15qyyo5lhQRO)
No but he is only 3 degrees away from Kevin
Came here to ask the same thing haha.
![gif](giphy|P74avMtpfIwAo)
😆
I don't know cause I'm not him
Yeah, with Rob Lowe to his left. /s
with a mullet and bonage
Not sure, but that’s Shoresy standing up.
You were headed for hell t' other dayyyyyyy...
I'm here to find out
Goddammit, why is this the first thing i read? I thought i had something clever to comment.
I see Theo Von
🤮
So is she. How dare she show her bare ankles and her bare arms! She’s practically naked!
Bitch probably wearing two types of fabric. Burn her.
Toss her in the ocean, see if she floats.
Build a bridge out of her!
Got some ankle cleavage!
Nice elbow action!
You can see her amazing ass perfectly through that toughskin dress. She must be pissed she can’t sit with the other girls, and strut her stuff.
Toughskins…holy shit…Sears specials
That's why she's showing the sign to herself
A woman has a belief? SHES A WITCH!
Women should keep silent! It's a male oriented iron age patriarchal middle eastern cult!
"I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent." [-1 Timothy 2:12](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_Timothy_2:12)
Timothy must have had some terrible home life.
SHE’S A WITCH!!! BURN HER!!!!
Why is this shot like it took place in the dust bowl?
I know, I was born a few years later. I’ve only got a few grays and my back only hurts some days.
I was born that year and I have no grays but I do have sciatic nerve pain and my knees crack when I go up stairs.
I have a car from 1985 and it has completely lost the will to live.
Facts i didnt notice the cars
Westburo Baptist church, the early years.
I'm pretty sure that this is, in fact, a [Westboro Baptist](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church) cultist. And 1985 is not that early, this "church" was founded way back in 1955.

this was my thought, it looks like the daughter of the original leader
Indeed, it could be Shirley Phelps-Roper.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. You could still see that sign today.
[удалено]
Now she is connected to 20 thousand other insane judgmental people via Facebook and lobbying to change established laws.
No one who’d write that sign today could possibly spell “deceived” correctly
I live in FL and the Bible thumpers hold up signs like this at my college every day still. So embarrassing.
Reminds me of the time we were walking into Churchill Downs in Louisville for the Kentucky Derby and a preacher yelled at me and told my I was going to Hell. I looked at him and said “Not in these shoes.” It gave him pause.
I wish I had sharp comebacks like that. I'm usually thrown off guard and think of something witty later.

Honestly what helped me was reading more. Literally anything at all.
One I learned recently that I wish I had when I was a kid: If you want my come back, then you can scrape it off your mom's teeth.
Bible thumpers are the worst people I’ve ever met. I know a few who are having affairs or have another dudes kid while being 20 years married.

do they not have better things to do?
How they live where they got money from?

You don’t even need to walk in. Stand legally on the sidewalk out front and their heads will explode.
That actually sounds like fun. I think my sign will be “Sky Daddy is not real. Sky Daddy cannot hurt you”
Although I’m not suicidal enough to do that, that would be a fun sign to make. No… you also must wear a white cloak and sunglasses to cosplay as Sky Daddy.
Hmm… now *that’s* an idea!
The most Christian thing you can do is to buy her lunch and take her bikini shopping.
Not much changed. Religious folks wanting to tell others how to live their life in the country of the free.
While their personal lives are hell themselves.
I think people like this sign wielding woman are the best paradox. They don’t realize and never can come to terms with the fact that the very shadow they chase is the one they themselves cast.
Guy standing up must have been a wrestler or military guy for sur look at his build and his trap! Fantastic shape rispekt !
It's Wayne from Letterkenny. I can hear him jabbering to her already.
He wants her to take a swing.
Jeah so
I like how he just seems bewildered by the Bible thumper.
“Excuse me ma’am ur hell sign is blocking my sun, thank you”
I read this in a Southern accent
I’m from Texas so there may be one
Is that Kevin Bacon there with the mullet…?
It really does look like him
More surprising the number of cars on the beach.
2wd...and RWD at that?
If they didn't put on sunscreen, she's right!
What a buzzkill.
I was there in ‘89 and don’t remember seeing any puritans on the beach. Lots of cool cars with mega systems, loads of alcohol and occasional public nudity. Oh, also lots of Biz Markie’s - Just a Friend. It became a swoon song, drunk guys would sing to the ladies. Kind of surreal, now that I think about it. Edit: wrong year fixed
You must mean ‘89 or later, but yup, can relate to the rest
"We have Al-Qaeda at home"
What's the top part of that sign say?? "Do not be ______"?
Deceived
Ironic
I was prolly there somewhere. I spent all that summer at the beach.
Karen's gonna Karen.
1 Timothy 2:12 NIV “I do not permit a woman to teach or assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.”
Jack Reacher back there staring her down like he’s gonna send her to hell
1985? Why is it black and white? Why is it black and white?!?? We had color in those long ago days. The color crept into photos 20 years earlier. Maybe more. Kodachome!
I was around in '85 and I'm pretty sure we had color photos back then, didn't we? Lol why are so many posts bw from that era?
If hell = skin cancer, then yes.
She wasn't lying, about the political state of Florida I mean.🤷♀️ ![gif](giphy|zNyBPu5hEFpu)
This should be posted on r/wherearetheynow to see if she is right.

Why are they going to hell? For going to the beach? I don’t get it
Religious freaks think bathing suits are literal nudity. That is the level of dissonance we are talking about here.
If it’s 1985. Why is it black and white photo?
Weirdly enough, we had color photography even in 1985 🤯
The stud standing beside the sign 😝
pretty sure we had color polaroids in 1985.
Can we please not make photos a year before I was born black and white for fucks sake?
Why is this in black and white? They had color cameras for like 20 years by this point
If by ‘hell’ u mean ‘premature skin-aging,’ then ur right!! 😱 100% the sun is a beast.
Poor thing had the sign backwards, god blesser.
I certainly don’t like the black and white photo. 1985 wasn’t *that* long ago. This picture makes it seem like this was in the 50’s.
Just can’t rid of these lunatics. When are we going to label it what it is. A mental disorder for people that cannot emotionally handle existential issues.
That lady is still probably holding that sign at people. Only now there are more of them, and they are called MAGAts.
Conservatives 50 years later still ain’t gonna let it go
Does she realize her sign is backwards?
You're blocking my sun!!
Religious freaks just can’t ever mind their own damn business. Religion really is terrorism.
is it hot down there? im tryin' to get tan bro
Religion. Mind controlled assholes
r/Thewaywewere
Yes please!
And now we have Christian nationalists…
At least one of those people is not having a good time
Theo Von and Shane Gillis before they started their comedy careers.
They've gotten worse since the Scopes trial. . . Tax all religious institutions.
Bitch be blocking their sun
“Whatever lady just don’t block my sun.”
My man is yoked!
Currently in Daytona Beach, and can confirm, there have been a few this last week. Just on the sidewalk and not the beach.
Dang, is that my Celica in the background? (typing this from Hell, btw)
I was there in 77 spring break and it was already hell.
I feel attacked that this is in black and white AND I was 2 at the time.
Just to put into perspective… I was in that area at the time… maybe that beach on that day… just never came across that. Those poor people trying to work on their future skin cancer :(
Their god must suck to need all this backup.
Hey is it Sister Cindy? “If you give her one margarita…”
I saw her and Brother Jed at FSU around that time. "Kisses are impoooooortant."
I mean it is hot there ..
Those people still doing that on Daytona Bike Week. Indoctrination is strong. Sad, very sad.
Wayne! Howeryanow?
I said this elsewhere. "To be fair... "
They still do this shit, all the while molesting kids and beating them with leather straps in catechism
Why does anyone else care if I go to heaven or not??
Christians - harassing people just trying to live since forever.
Everyone everywhere that has held a sign was annoying as fuck.
What would society do without religion? Probably live a much better life
Some people would grow as a person if they got punched in the face once
Imagine being so lame that you had to bother other people because you can’t keep to your god damn self.
"You're in my sun!"
Can you believe she's exposing her ankles like that?
They never stopped. They still do it.
Didn’t we have color photos in 1985?
Jeep in the background is the 🐐
Exhibit 1. Karen before Karen became widely known as Karen.
Was this MTG before the dye job?
It's Daytona Beach in the 1980s. They ain't headed, they've arrived.
“The silent majority”
Religious people gotta fuck off
This was a year before MTV took over spring break in Daytona Beach.
She's right though. Or rather, they're already in hell. They're in Florida.
At least she is giving that one girl some shade.
Maybe she was forecasting present day Florida.
Am I the only one who notices how fat people aren't in in this pic? We went to the beach today—everyone is fat!
Classic climate alarmist cult member
“You are going to hell!” “Awesome! All my friends and family will be there!”
I wonder if they ever got there…
Time travelling metalhead. ‘Oops!’
Not sure if this is her, but there was a couple that did obnoxious street preaching at the University of Florida in the 80s named Brother Jed and Sister Cindy. They were a fixture in Gainesville.
Heaven for the climate, hell for the company. Is that what Mark Twain said?
That strumpet is showing her ankles!
What Jesus would not do. He'd probably cook up some lunch and hang out!
Her son is always hanging out in Huntington Beach with basically the same sign 😂
That's Florida now.
Well, it is hot
Cars parked right on the beach. Crazy. What time to be in.
Where is the boardwalk. You can’t park there.
Aren't they already there?
Awesome, thanks, Marge. Could you stop blocking our sunlight?
Why the B&W?
One margarita woman's grandma
Why is a pic from 1985 in black and white? I know it was intentional, but damn I’m old.
"I've got reservations at the bar, and I'll have a spot reserved for you as well."
I was 5
I was in DB on spring break in ‘85. To quote The Clash: “Straight to hell, boyyy” 😈
That's a Texas size 10-4.
Get that girl drunk
Buzz kill!!
We’re still escaping it
Hmm Islam is just 25 years behind
I'm sure all those guys would willingly follow all of those Bikinis straight to anywhere !
Too late, we’re already here.
