Praise the Lord. Tammy Faye Outlived the Evil Jerry Falwell!

[David Zephyr]

While I know that Tammy Faye, who is facing the end of her life, will take no solace that the very wicked man, Jerry Falwell, was found dead today, I am very happy that she was able to outlive him after all the sinister things he did against that good woman.

And for every gay child and teen that suffered because of the wicked words from the Apostle of Hate from Liberty Baptist Church, I also am pleased to know that Mr. Falwell will no longer be around to sow his seeds of violence anymore.

1. Hooray for Tammy!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Sanity Claws]

2. I didn't follow Falwell's bashing of Tammy Faye

Would you mind giving a summary of what he did to her?

In 1987, when fellow televangelist Jim Bakker was convicted of fraud and imprisoned, Falwell maneuvered behind the scenes to take control of Bakker's Praise The Lord (PTL) TV ministry. While Bakker was in prison, Falwell led PTL into bankruptcy.

7. First, let me say that I'm sure Tammy Faye Bakker Meisner

takes no satisfaction in the death of the horrible Jerry Falwell - if she is able, I'm sure she's praying for his soul. While an agnostic, I have long been an admirer of Tammy Faye's - she speakes her mind but loves with all her heart.

NOW, let me also say that in reading article at the link I'M HORRIFIED TO LEARN THAT MY GGGRANDMOTHER WAS A BEASLEY from the south - and Jerry's mother was a BEASLEY from the south.

To think that I could possibly be related to such a scumbag makes my skin crawl!

10. Blast from the past

[Raine]

21. I'll never forget that

piece of crap going down that slide after ripping off the Bakkers, so glad Tammy Faye lived to see the end of him.

40. wow....I have never seen that....

prescient.

it comes to us all.

[dsc]

3. I didn't think about the fact

Tammy outlived him. I really like her son.

[Jamastiene]

43. I really like her and her son too.

They seem to be very tolerant and loving people.

[Drifter]

4. Jesus thinks yer a jerk ....

Frank Zappa - Broadway the Hardway

Probably one of the best on that disc.

6. They may say that ...

the Lord called them home, because of the times we are in...

[MotorCityMan]

8. Now that I'll give a "Halleluiah!"

I never knew much about her (except for the makeup) until I watched the documentary "The Eyes of Tammy Faye".

She is a true Christian, who cares about ALL people.

[David Zephyr]

19. Tammy is a good woman indeed.

She's so good that she would not like my post either. Still, I'm happy she lived to know that Falwell perished without asking her to forgive him.

[ronnykmarshall]

35. Amen.

Tammy Faye is a beautiful woman with a heart of gold.

[partylessinOhio]

9. Thank you for saying this! It was my first thought when I heard the news

that the evil Falwell was dead.

Falwell tricked the Bakkers into a temporary takeover of PTL knowing all along that he never intended to return it but instead to destroy PTL to gain control of Jim Bakker's satellite to broadcast.

Through the Eyes Of Tammy Faye you can see what Falwell did to PTL and Heritage USA.

11. K&R. Best Falwell OP, ever.

[David Zephyr]

20. Thanks!

[KoKo]

12. Falwell sacrificed those INNOCENTS! Tammy with her mascara & TJ Maxx Buying Habits and

Jim...They did PUPPET SHOWS FGS! They were trashed because they thought they were a cross between "Mr. Rogers and "Six Flags Amusement Parks!"

Fallwel and Robinson are MUCH MORE EVIL than these misguided Evangelicals...who were thinking they were "doing good" while making a "little on the side."

The Bushies going back for generations are MUCH MORE CRIMINAL than the BAKKERS! But that's just my own "judgmental view of them." And, I'm not even an EVANGELICAL...

[Connie_Corleone]

14. I used to watch their show before school every morning.

I loved seeing the mascara running down Tammy Faye's face when she started crying. It cracked me up.

[David Zephyr]

22. I love Tammy Faye.

She would not like my OP, because she is a real Christian. I really came to love this woman and how she has stood up against Falwell's wicked hate.

[KoKo]

27. She was REAL in a WORLD OF FAKE! That's what you say, maybe?

At least that's what I saw of her.......:shrug:

[ronnykmarshall]

34. Watch "The Eyes of Tammy Faye"

Also a quote from her after she was at a screening of the film at the Castro theater in San Francisco. The audience was a majority of gays and lesbians.

"I never felt more pure love in my life as I did that night at The Castro".

I truly love this woman with all my heart.

[lildreamer316]

13. Is there a link to her movie on the internet?

Or do I need to go purchase?
I may go see if it's on Netflix...

[David Zephyr]

23. Here's a link, ildreamer316

45. Thanks, David!

I'm looking foreward to this.

[Raine]

15. I thought of that too, I'm glad for Tammy Faye...

Falwell really screwed over the Bakkers and it's nice that Tammy lived to see him gone. At least Tammy Faye can die in peace now.

[David Zephyr]

25. A little justice from on high maybe.

When I heard that Tammy Faye was in her last days, I couldn't help but think about that evil sack of shit called Falwell and that he was probably happy to know it.

Well, even though she would never wish anything bad to him, I am really happy to know that she can go in peace knowing he's toast.

16. They're both evil

Lying, deceiving, and groveling for money. Convincing simple-minded christians to go ito debt (no exaggeration) to support their greed.

Hell isn't hot enough!

[KoKo]

31. Would you agree that there are "degrees of evil" and that some evil

goes back on the "volume scale" compared to what we see today?

[Courtesy Flush]

33. Certainly

Never said I didn't. There are worse people, but greedy evangelicals are way up there.

[ronnykmarshall]

36. What you don't know about Tammy Faye is A LOT!

[Raine]

37. Tammy Faye is a real sweetie

I wish that you could look and see beyond the evangelical label and realize what a decent big hearted human being that she is.

38. There is such a thing as changing for the better

Tammy Faye Baker really did change, and has so far lived the rest of her life working to ameliorate the damage she did before she had a change of heart.

[Courtesy Flush]

39. Sorry

I used to watch her during my unemployed days in the 80's. She made my blood boil. I didn't know she had changed.

[ronnykmarshall]

17. I love Tammy

and I think that she's probably praying for Falwell's soul. He'll need it.

[terrya]

24. I think she'll be praying for him, also.

She never seemed like a vindictive person.

Two very, very different people.

[David Zephyr]

29. Probably so.

She's better than me. But I'm happy to know she outlived him after all the evil things he did to her and to all my gay and lesbian loved ones and friends who he hurt with cruelty.

[KoKo]

32. Tammy IS...but I've reached hard into the depths of my Protestant Soul

and I'm struggling to find a way to appreciate Falwell's Death. I know I need help on this issue that I have such a hard time finding compassion for HIM over the BAkkers.

It will take some time.......

[David Zephyr]

28. Me, too.

[Monk06]

18. Well at least the Bakkers were fun to watch and the PTL Christian Swingers Resort was truly inspired

[Matsubara]

26. At last report she was just 65 lbs.

She really seemed like a nice person who was unfortunate to marry a crook and philanderer.

I hope she's not in too much discomfort.

[David Zephyr]

30. Let's hope so.

:thumbsup:

[Neshanic]

41. Falwell last seen in Jan Crouch's hair in tonights telecast. Search party formed.

[murielm99]

42. Thank you for this thread.

I tried to post a thread about Tammy Faye earlier, but some asshat trashed it. I ended up putting the fucker on ignore.

I know that Tammy Faye forgave Falwell a long time ago. But I wondered, facetiously, if in some small corner of her mind, she was thinking, "Shit! I can't even die without that creep stealing the limelight!"

She may have lots of fake stuff on her face, but her soul is genuine.

Tammy Faye does not have long. I hope her passing is peaceful.

[allalone]

44. Their ripping off of prople in the name of religion was a very bad thing

but there is something about Tammy Faye that just makes you like her. I'm very sad about
her condition. I thought she was getting better.
