Taking the fight to the Westboro Baptist Church, a lesbian couple got married this weekend,
across the street from the notorious church:
In a beautiful ceremony against a rainbow-painted backdrop, the Westboro Baptist Church bore witness to its very first gay wedding ceremony Saturday.
Perched approximately 50 feet from the church's front doors, Kimberly Kidwell and Katie Short exchanged vows in an outdoor ceremony in Topeka, Kan.
Same-sex marriage is not legal in Kansas, but the couple proceeded with the ceremony with the help of an ordained Baptist minister, who happens to be a lesbian, to raise awareness of the issue.
