I've never heard of the guy. Sounds unpleasant. But it's really not nice to be glad someone is dead. Considering he's never actually killed anyone from what I can tell.

You are all bad people. :hammer:

Today is not only a day of mourning for God's chosen, but for all of children of the Lord.
People talk of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as man, so artistically cruel.

Falwell's ghost is going to haunt you now paazin for your mixture of God and America's heretical idolatry concerning the bald eagle.

You should have put up a sparkly cross, like this one

Now you shall burn in hell and never bask in the hallowed light of the dead Falwell.

That is the most awesome sparkly eagle I have ever seen.

And I've seen a lot of sparkly eagles.

Believe you me.

Now see, if there was such a thing as a secular terrorist, his funeral would be suicide bombed, since it would almost certainly have the assembled leadership of the Christian Taliban, er Evangelical Right, present, including those politicians that are beholden to them. Talk about a target of opportunity.

Instead we just say nasty things about them on Internet forums. :P

Yes, because we're not terrorists. Could you imagine how much more peaceful the world would be if the Taliban was content in flaming the US in cyberspace over bombing us?

Oooo! I wonder if the Westboro Baptist church will protest his funeral :D If not, then someone should just to stick it in their faces.

Came across a fun list of quotes:
On Sept. 11: "The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way—all of them who have tried to secularize America—I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.' "

On AIDS: "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals."

On homosexuality: "I believe that all of us are born heterosexual, physically created with a plumbing that's heterosexual, and created with the instincts and desires that are basically, fundamentally, heterosexual. But I believe that we have the ability to experiment in every direction. Experimentation can lead to habitual practice, and then to a lifestyle. But I don't believe anyone begins a homosexual."

On Martin Luther King Jr.: "I must personally say that I do question the sincerity and nonviolent intentions of some civil rights leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mr. James Farmer, and others, who are known to have left-wing associations."

On Martin Luther King Jr., four decades later: "You know, I supported Martin Luther King Jr., who did practice civil disobedience."

On public education: "I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again, and Christians will be running them."

On the separation of church and state: "There is no separation of church and state."

On feminists: "I listen to feminists and all these radical gals. ... These women just need a man in the house. That's all they need. Most of the feminists need a man to tell them what time of day it is and to lead them home. And they blew it and they're mad at all men. Feminists hate men. They're sexist. They hate men; that's their problem."

On global warming: "I can tell you, our grandchildren will laugh at those who predicted global warming. We'll be in global cooling by then, if the Lord hasn't returned. I don't believe a moment of it. The whole thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability."

On Bishop Desmond Tutu: "I think he's a phony, period, as far as representing the black people of South Africa."

On Islam: "I think Mohammed was a terrorist. I read enough of the history of his life, written by both Muslims and non-Muslims, that he was a violent man, a man of war."

On Jews: "In my opinion, the Antichrist will be a counterfeit of the true Christ, which means that he will be male and Jewish, since Jesus was male and Jewish."

Amen! It all went down hill once we gave them the vote!

Well... Christianity is based on Judaism... so it does make sense...

More fun from ol' Jerry:
“Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions.”

“If you’re not a born-again Christian, you’re a failure as a human being.”

“Textbooks are Soviet propaganda.”

“The idea that religion and politics don’t mix was invented by the Devil to keep Christians from running their own country.”
