Nathan Phelps
Nathan "Nate" Phelps (born November 22, 1958) is an American-Canadian author, LGBT rights activist, and public speaker on the topics of religion and child abuse. He is the sixth-born of the 13 children of Fred Phelps, from whom he – along with three of his siblings – had been estranged since his 18th birthday in 1976 until his father's death in 2014.〔 Phelps permanently left Westboro Baptist Church in 1980 and has since publicly censured the group.〔Kendall, Justin. ("The New Fred: Shirley Phelps-Roper is just like her notorious father – except in one crucial way," ) Pitch.com, November 2, 2006. Retrieved December 21, 2012.〕
Other members of the Phelps family have also left, most recently Zach Phelps-Roper in February 2014.〔(Fourth Phelps-Roper sibling leaves Westboro Baptist Church )〕
==Early life==
Phelps was born in Topeka, Kansas on November 22, 1958. From birth until age 18, Phelps lived with his parents Fred and Margie in his hometown. Although he attended a local public school,〔 beyond that his life revolved around his father's Westboro Baptist Church (WBC), which adjoined their family home〔 inside a walled compound.〔 Attendance at scheduled sermons was strictly enforced, and after-school time was largely committed to raising money for the Church through selling candy.〔 Later this was eclipsed by participation in his father's intensive exercise program, which would routinely involve Phelps and his siblings running 5 or 10 miles after school, accompanied by participation in a fad diet.
Phelps describes his father as "deeply prejudiced",〔 and also violent〔 and abusive,〔 and gives accounts of receiving extended beatings with a leather strap and later with a mattock handle. Phelps' brother Mark and sister Dortha have corroborated Phelps' claims of physical abuse by their father.〔〔〔〔
