LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) - The Rev. Jerry Falwell, the television evangelist who founded the Moral Majority and used it to mold the religious right into a political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University. He was 73.

Seriously?

Big time TV preacher. He's the one who said 9/11 was caused by basically anyone he hated, which was pretty much anyone who isn't a fundie like him.

He also tried getting Teletubbies off the air because he said one of them was supposed to be gay. (I'm no fan of the Teletubbies but it was pretty ridiculous.)

Basically, a loudmouth televangelist who has been in the news plenty, even in the past few years. I'm surprised you never heard of him, but maybe you are kidding. I'm still getting to know peeps around here. :)


Cheers,

Ah, I see. I hate the news so that's probably why I had no idea.

Well, my point isn't to discuss the newsworthiness of his death. More to make fun of it, because he was an arrogant ass who hated all us heathens who weren't just like him.

:demon:

LOL While I can appreciate that, he did plenty of other crap that you might not have liked so much. As examples, here are some of his quotes:

"[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being." And just to be clear, he means HIS brand of born-again Christian, because others aren't good enough. He called Billy Graham "Satan's chief servant" to give you some idea of what he thought of "competing" branches of Christianity.

[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"I put all the blame legally and morally on the actions of the terrorist, [but America's] secular and anti-Christian environment left us open to our Lord's [decision] not to protect. When a nation deserts God and expels God from the culture ... the result is not good."
-- Rev Jerry Falwell, backpedaling amidst criticism of his statement blaming civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, quoted from John F Harris, "God Gave US 'What We Deserve,' Falwell Says," The Washington Post (September 14, 2001)



Also, anyone who saw "The People Vs. Larry Flynt" might remember that the court case in that movie was the Supreme Court Case Hustler Magazine Vs. Falwell.

LOL yeah, yeah. We've all got skeletons in our closet.

Just remember to remove all of the flesh before you put them there, otherwise they get rank quickly in this warm weather.
