Megan Phelps-Roper is a prominent American figure, having spent a significant portion of her life as a devoted member of the Westboro Baptist Church, a religious organization that has been widely recognized as a hate group due to its extreme and discriminatory beliefs.
Born into a family deeply entrenched in the church, Phelps-Roper's mother, Shirley Phelps-Roper, was a prominent figure within the organization, while her grandfather, Fred Phelps, was the church's founder and a vocal advocate for its controversial views.
As a spokesperson for the church, Phelps-Roper was often at the forefront of the organization's protests and demonstrations, where she would loudly proclaim the church's message of hate and intolerance towards various groups, including the LGBTQ+ community, Jews, and Muslims.
However, in 2012, Phelps-Roper began to question the church's beliefs and practices, eventually leaving the organization in 2012 to pursue a more accepting and inclusive lifestyle.
