Joining the Chorus

[liz_marcs]

As someone who tries to be fair, even when the other party isn't, I can only say that I hope Jerry Falwell's god shows his immortal soul more mercy than Falwell ever showed to to his fellow man.

But in as far as the earthly realm goes, I can only think, "Good riddance to bad rubbish."

Saying "Amen" would just be tempting fate and irony, wouldn't it? *wicked grin*

I shared your thought. He won't be missed.

Thanks for the link. I no longer feel guilty about kicking a guy when he's down. *g* Very down, in this case.

Amen to that. How that self righteous Baboon could call himself christian is beyond me.

Well, he was 73 . . . which I guess proves the axiom that "only the good die young".

Love love LOVE your icon. I've got a bumper sticker that says pretty much the same thing. :)

Isn't it wonderful? It was made by natgel and is sharable if you're interested.

73 years too late. Falwell's an excellent reason why abortion must be kept legal.

Fairness, schmairness. I think Falwell had the most ironically appropriate name for a televangelist ever.

Knowing little of Falwell apart from his reputation, I followed the link.

He seemed both odious and stupid - denying writing a book is just foolish. And the idea that global warming is a ctually a conspiracy by the Weather Channel I found hilarious!

I don't have authority or desire to determine people's location in the afterlife. I don't hate the man, but I certainly can't say I'll miss him.

Here Here!

I will not cheer his death. To do such a thing would be to imitate the man, and I REFUSE to give him that much victory over my soul. Rather, I will mourn a life wasted, and wonder what he would have been had not the poison of hate taken root in his being.
