LYNCHBURG, Va. - The Rev. Jerry Falwell, the TV evangelist who founded the Moral Majority and built the religious right into a mighty political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University, a school executive said. He was 73.

Oh please, he was a friggin' hate mongerer. Here's Falwell on the events of 9/11:
"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 try to secularize America...I point the thing in their face and say you helped this happen."
I'm not happy when anyone dies, but he's the man who said "Aids is god's way of spanking gays",and blamed the 9-11 attacks on "America turning away from god". Falwell was a sad and hateful man. Dead or not, that's a fact.

Yeah? Fuc- you too pal. What do you have to say about that you pathetic sack of shit?
You guys can flame me all you want but it doesn't change the fact you are a bunch of lowlifes for gloating over someone's death. @#$%& lowlifes. Your parents/wives/children etc. must all be very proud of you.

Yeah go ahead and rationalize it. The guy may have been an ass and may have said some things that were totally irrational/nasty whatever you want to call it but he is still a person.
Asses like Sharpton/Jackson say equally disturbing things but I wouldn't gloat over them dying.
Go ahead and rationalize it- you're the one that has to live with yourself you friggin moron.

Nasty tone? You people got what you deserved. Besides I didn't mention any names in my intitial post so the ones that came back at me must be the ones with guilty consciences. Like the old saying goes; "if the shoe fits wear it".
Certainly better to hurl insults than gloat over someone's death. And besides when I call you a friggin moron it's not an insult- just stating a fact.
Dude, you called me a "friggin' moron" (OUCH! Nice adjective though, I used it earlier in this thread) before I ever addressed you. Thanks for putting us all in our place though. Here's one just for you:

Oh my how clever. Did you rack your brain to come up with that one?

I didn't put you all in your place. Like I said I didn't mention any names in my first post- but the fact that you came back at me must mean you are one of the guilty ones. Maybe someday you will grow up and act a little more mature, because to be totally honest you seem pretty worthless as a human being.
>but the fact that you came back at me must mean you are one of the guilty ones.
You addressed me first dear, I merely responded. You're also the first (and, so far, only) person to stoop to name-calling of other board members in this thread. Now *that's* mature.
