I never thought I'd see a love-fest for Falwell on DU.

[Squatch]

Thankfully, I still haven't seen one.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK that piece of evil, vile, and DEAD trash. May he AND HIS MESSAGE burn in hell.

1. I see you're carrying on his "damn them to hell" legacy, good job.

Now all you need is a TV show.

[jobycom]

2. No kidding, here's the pot calling the kettle black, round, and full of water.

[Squatch]

4. Yeah, and here are some misguided souls coming to the aid of

a truly contemptable blob of protoplasm. I'm sure Liberty University has a couple openings for you.

[jobycom]

5. Misses the point altogether.

He would have found you contemptible, you find him contemptible--that's only about perspective, not about any qualitative difference.

[Squatch]

6. Screw him

[spoony]

8. This is now my standard reply

"Falwell and his type didn't/don't think all people are valuable, not even to God. I have always firmly disagreed, so I am bound to think that even he was, to someone. To God, to his family. I'm not going to throw that notion of human value away for anyone, ever."

3. I'm trying not to think hateful thoughts

....ok I've calmed down.

It's sad, but I don't miss him. I had to put up with his shit during college. I went to Randolph-Macon Woman's College, and he and all his brainwashed LU students referred to us all as the "whores on the hill", and insinuating that we were all brazen lesbian hussies who were going to hell... Is he in Hell? No. He's just gone...and I'm fine with that.

7. Beware. You'll be scolded by the PC Nazis.

Never let it be said that the vigilante scolds lose a chance to display their "moral superiority."


:eyes: :puke:

[KennedyGuy]

9. Its got nothing to do with moral superiority..

its like the kid on the school yard who hates everyone because the other guy does.
I can only speak for myself and believe that it is better to show why hate is so destructive.
I feel the same way when some here cheer when a soldier is killed and calls the murderers.
I try to change views by showing a better way.

[TahitiNut]

10. Gee. Thanks. Your evangelism is acknowledged. How appropriate on this day.

:eyes: It's not "superiority" it's just "better." Riiiight.

"My only fault is humility." :shrug:

[sheerjoy]

11. And so you should....

thanks for being compassionate at such a time... we ALL will go here someday....

[Matariki]

12. Jerry Falwell, may he attain some sort of enlightenment on the 'other side'

may he see the face of god and say 'oops, my bad' and then vow to return to earth as a progressive transgender pagan and work for the common good ;-)

[HughBeaumont]

13. Be better than that! Be BETTER than that!!

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT!

That bastard helped make bigotry, intolerance and homophobia vogue on a national level. Foulsmell can throat Satan's prickly member for eternity, especially for that 9/11 comment. That's floating in soon-to-be-hellmate Phelps' territory.
