(USA) - In response to Casper's new historical monument plaza, an anti-gay pastor in Kansas has renewed his request to have his own monument in town. In a letter to the Casper City Council on Monday, the Rev. Fred Phelps restated his intentions to build a monument in Casper, the home of slain gay student Matthew Shepard. Phelps said he would be willing to include a picture of Shepard and the engraving: "MATTHEW SHEPARD, Entered Hell October 12, 1998, at age 21, in Defiance of God's Warning: 'Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind; it is abomination.' Leviticus 18:22."
