Any one (of us) who have seen even one of his appalling 'sermons' on television must be feeling a little sigh of relief that Sunday mornings will now be dumbbell-free..for a while, anyway.

1. I'm devastated...

Oh wait..no I'm not. RIP or whatever.

[jgraz]

2. BREAKING: Hell puts in huge order for extra brimstone

[Donkeykick]

3. Never seen one sermon.

Did I miss out on anything?:silly:

(Oh well. Rest in Peace!)

[youthere]

5. Imagine Fred Phelps in an expensive suit.

4. ...

6. Craptured straight to hell, no doubt.

Say hi to Father Coughlan and Tinky Falwell for all of us, Reverend... NOT!

[rateyes]

7. He lobbied Congress a few years ago for a law

that would allow churches to give donations to political parties, candidates, etc.

I'm as heartbroken at his death as I was Falwells. (Meaning, I'm not grieving at all.)

[YOY]

8. Still waiting on Earnest Angley or Robert Tilton

They're my favories. My (non-American) made me watch a bit of thier shtick on Sunday once. She said something along the lines of "Soviet propaganda ain't got nothing on this."

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

9. A stinking Dominionist. A miserable Reconstructionist. In his own words:

"This is our land.
This is our world.
This is our heritage, and with God's help,
we shall reclaim this nation for Jesus Christ.
And no power on earth can stop us."

10. Actually,

I don't think Jesus said anything about reclaiming any stinking nation.

I truly despise these people who hijack (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Republicanism, Democratism....) for their own Machiavellian, blankety-blank no-good so-and-so...well, you get the picture.

11. I hope he wasn't driving when it happened...

[book_worm]

12. You mean he was having sex when he died?

[KG]

13. what kind of car did he have?

i could use a nice sedan for dates with bikini babes.
