Speaking of 9/11 Falwell said "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." He later apologized.

His thoughts on homosexuals, "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals." Nice. Real nice.

I guess it's good he didn't molest anyone, but excuse me if I don't give him credit for it.

All true! Besides abortion, I can't think of a single area of agreement that I have with him...perhaps if I looked closely, I'd find something.

Of course my thoughts are for his family in their time of loss.

As for me...I won't miss him at all. He did his best, devoted his life, to misrepresent everything that Jesus was about.

I'd like to see what happens when he shows up in the "judgement seat" and he hears the words "I do not know you".

Elevator down, Jerry. Burn forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
