Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch!
Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.
Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed.
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead. She's gone where the goblins go,
Below - below - below. Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding Dong' the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
Let them know
The Wicked Witch is dead!

“I shudder to think where the country would be right now if the religious right had not evolved,” Falwell said when he stepped down as Moral Majority president in 1987.

I shudder to think where we are now, because it did.

Ok this is deep and I have been thinking about this since I read that Jerry had passed away.  While I personally don't hate him as a person I hate the misinformation that he spread through the years.  My heart goes out to his family as loosing anyone is hard.  Now, I cannot say if he is heaven or not as that is not my place to say, that is between him and God.  I hope that you all look at what it was that you hated about him and I think you will see it was the misinformation that spewed from his mouth.  I hope that helps you all as you sort the feelings of his death.

Jerry Falwell was a fundamentally offensive human being and I, for one, welcome his death. I hope it was drawn out and excruciatingly painful.

In fact I hope he got the worst arse cancer his ghastly, blood thirsty old testament god could devise.

There is no doubt in my mind that the world is a much better place now that this shit fountain has been reduced to so much fertiliser.

Nothing to sort out here, I am glad we no longer have to listen to the leader of the "Moral Minority".

While you and I might think he was spreading misinformation, he and his followers thought it was the truth and only way to live and we were the ones spreading misinformation.  So how can 2 people read the same words and come up with 2 completely different interpretations?  That is the $64,000 question and one that will probably never be answered. My problem is that he wanted to legislate his interpretation.   This is where he and many others continue to overstep.  You are entitled to your beliefs but don't legislate them into my life.

I'll reserve my feelings for people who I actually care about or who deserve them.  Falwell meets neither of those criteria.

I think letting off Jerry Falwell with the term "misinformation" is being a bit generous.

This is a man who not only spoke despicably about gays, but also about Jews and insisted on supporting the apartheid regime in South Africa back in the Reagan days.  The man was simply 110% pure evil.

  For all those wavering on whether or not to feel sorry for him and his family......
 

Jerry Falwell has died after being found unconscious in his office this morning. I will shed no tears. In fact, Tinky Winky and I may just have a big hug.
 
"AIDS is God's punishment to gays." - Jerry Falwell.
 
"Instant death is my punishment to Jerry Falwell" - God.
 
- "If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being."

- "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. What a happy day that will be!"

- "Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them."

- "There is no separation of church and state. Modern US Supreme Courts have raped the Constitution and raped the Christian faith and raped the churches by misinterpreting what the Founders had in mind in the First Amendment to the Constitution."

- "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals. To oppose it would be like an Israelite jumping in the Red Sea to save one of Pharaoh's charioteers."

- "Textbooks are Soviet propaganda."

- "The whole (global warming) thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability."

- "(9/11 is the result of) throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools, 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 try to secularize America...I point the thing in their face and say you helped this happen."

TV religion spreading hate is big business. it brings in the bucks. It wins elections. And it does damage to the country and to people that can never be reversed. It causes the innocent to be subject to hate, pain and death. And it brings in the bucks (worth repeating).

In the Bible it talks about false prophets in the last days, that deceive "millions". Now how could those foreseers way back in the stone age have foreseen satellite TV feeding the masses, ran by people like Falwell??? These false prophets, satellite TV, the only way to reach the millions... Spooookie!!!

People like Falwell drive good people away from what religion is all about. Gays tend to be anti religious because that think Falwell is religion. He’s not. Religion is forgiveness, being “Christ like”, and NOT judging others. Christ would never, and never did talk the way these false prophets do. Its the injustice that people like this fat ass got away with leading people down the wrong road, and in distorting what Christ was all about. It’s the money, that’s all it is with them.  Falwell-like preachers do not preach the truth, they never knew it in the first place.

I would never wish death on anyone - its just bad karma.

BUT, he was a waste of space and a bad example of a human being, or even a subhuman being. 

He spewed hatred, divisiveness and condemnation and, because of this, caused untold harm to many in this nation. Because some of us believe we get back what we give, may he rot in the hell he has created for himself.

When is his funeral? I want to go so I can dance on his grave wearing a red dress!

As our Lord and Savior took the reigns and gave old Falwell the permanent pink slip, I feel it is our duty not to question His will and we must therefore REJOICE in his passing.

To do anything less just wouldn't be christian....would it?

I am not sorry he is dead.  Nor am I sorry for his family, friends or accomplices.  They all believe they are going to heaven, so they delude themselves into thinking he's in a better place.

I await the deaths of Mr. Phelps and his entire family, Mr. Robertson, Mr. Dobson, Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Reid, Mr. Hagee, Mr. AND Mrs. La Haye and all the rest of those degenerate, deluded, and EVIL people.

Hitler noted in his Mein Kampf that Christianity knew how to keep its followers in line and felt it's "tactics" should be immulated by all totalitarian regimes to maintain control over the population.  Essentially, the use of fear and misinformation, coupled with patriotic fervor.

Mr. Falwell will not be of any importance in 50 years.  His university will loose it's luster and probably become some backwater degree mill in the future.

If there were a god, I 'd be GRATEFUL that this mean, hateful and unrepentant man is gone.

The world is less one mental, emotional monster.  Good riddance.

jesus preached tolerance,love,humility. Yeah, this guy perverted the teachings of Jesus. Still cant find anything in new testament about homosexuals. I know most here have always thought this guy was the number one bad guy, but I really dont think many people listened to him and his group hasnt had much power since mid 80s.  I think many Christians consider him and Roberston to be clowns. But this Dobson guy is a real doozy. He does have power. There are many who listen to him,because he doesnt make the outlandish stupid statements that Falwel and Roberston often do or did. I am sure he does make them, we just dont hear them.  Its all about power and nothing at all about Jesus or God. They have power, just like the racial pimps,Jackson and Sharpton,who could be the lefts Falwell and Roberston, outrageous clowns,but still dangerous.
I really hope the Republicans choose Rudy as their candidate, if for no other reason it would be shooting the finger to power mad religion pimps like Dobson. I dont care if it cost republicans the election, it is time for these fuckers to get the shaft. I just wish the Dems would do the same thing to the warmers, the racial pimps, unions, lawyers unions,teacher unions and other groups that attempt to impose their will on the people for money and power.

Once again our resident misanthrope speaks...and as usual he is wrong on so many levels.

Yes, he says, "the religious right is bad but no worse than the evil unions, teachers and lawyers on the left." I've taught school Jake, and of course you are right about teaching and teachers...it's nothing more than a diabolical plot to obtain wealth and power. How did we ever think we could slip that by someone as astute as you? You are right again on your comparison of Jackson and Falwell...while Falwell was preaching segregation and apartheid, Jackson was preaching and protesting for civil rights. Motives aside, Sharpton and Jackson preach equal rights for all, including diseased ridden faggots like us. I think Muhammad Ali said it best Jake when describing why he chose not to fight in Viet Nam..." no Viet Cong ever called me nigger." No one on the left wants us dead Jake (and that includes you) that I have heard of.

Since I started this thread I will take the liberty to be the first to dance on the grave of Jerry Falwell. Jerry Falwell, the big fat bigot who parlayed people's fear and ignorance into persecution and power. Any comparison of Falwell to anyone other than Satan says all I need to know.

Dachs, It doesnt matter what I say,you disagree. You are one of those miserable people who will say its night when its day. No big deal. You really need to check the finances of Mr. Jackson before you vouch for his integrity. Maybe he started off fighting for what is right,but the last 30 years he has spent his time blackmailing corporate American in the name of racism,very funny from the author of hymie town. His family owns one of the largest Budweiser distributorships in US. I guess he got that honestly.
My point about about the lawyer unions,teacher unions,and warmers is that they also attempt to push their "religion" on us by using their power to influence government. How is that different from what whores like Falwell and Jackson have done?  Oh, those organizations dont hate gays or blame them for all the world problems. As usual you only see the world through horse blinders. You only see what effects you. You refuse to accept or understand that special interest groups on your side threaten others freedoms and way of life. I dont think you are stupid,so you must be a true believer, like the religious right, just with a different belief system. You are just as dangerous as the hopeless mongrels who do the bidding of Falwell and Roberston.

When you decide to walk the walk instead of just talking the talk get back to me. Miserable to me is someone so consumed with guilt that they don't have the courage to reveal their status.

Walk into your local Republican headquarters and volunteer your services...you must reveal your HIV status and then get back to me. Better yet call Rudy and see if he would allow you to be the face of "aids" on the campaign trail.

I'm so sorry that I am the only person that ever seems to disagree with you Jake...usually your anecdotes are so warmly received.

Jack, saying anything like this is absolutely unacceptable: "You are one of those miserable people who will say its night when its day. No big deal." 

You can disagree and no doubt you will, but that kind of dismissive characterization is something we won't tolerate. You've often slipped over the line in your "discussions" and commentary with what I will call your categorical, didactic "stone wall" approach  (no pun intended there).

Consider this a serious warning. If this happens again you're going to be getting an overdue time out.

No no Jan.  Fred is EXTRA crazy.  He protests soldier's funerals, gays and the Queen of Sweden.  He sees everything in society as a "fag-enabler"... these other preachers are quite tame comparatively in terms of actions and rhetoric with Fred, who is just bonkers.

Oh, plus Fred only has about 70 followers so he's not really important.  I think he just desires attention.  The other preachers have huge followings and, in that context, are much more dangerous really.

Still cant find anything in new testament about homosexuals.

Well jeez, Jakey you should try reading it then. Off the top of my head I can name these references to homosexuality in the New Testament. King James, of course.

Romans 1: 26-28 and 1:31 32 -- in this one Paul condemns homosexuals to death.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 -- the most famous of the New Testament "clobber" passages. Paul (the guy was like obsessed) notes that homosexuality is a barrier to eternal life.

1 Timothy 1:10 -- Homosexuals are declared to be profane, lawless and unholy. Well, duh.

2 Timothy 3:3 -- during the end of days homosexuality will become rampant.

Happy reading!

Quote
The words “homosexual” and “homosexuality” do not appear in the Bible—at least they are absent from the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek texts. The authors of the Bible did not understand sexual orientation; this concept was only developed in the late 19th century. The writers had little or no comprehension of same-sex committed relationships. Their languages had no words for these concepts. Rather, they assumed that everyone was heterosexual, but that some heterosexuals engaged in sex with persons of the same gender. Thus, when you see one of these terms in an English translation of the Bible, it is important to dig deeper and find what the original Hebrew or Greek text really means.

Quote
Two words which are often mistranslated in many places in the Hebrew Scriptures are:

qadesh means a male temple prostitute who engaged in ritual sex; it is often mistranslated as “sodomite” or “homosexual.”

to’ebah means a condemned foreign Pagan religious cult practice, but often translated as “abomination.”

http://www.worldpolicy.org/globalrights/sexorient/bible-gay.html

It's no secret that the bible was written and re-written by power-hungry control-freaks - not god.

What about the story of the Centurion's slave-boy being healed by Jesus.  Surely he would not have wasted all them wonder powers with an eternity-damned hopeless sodomite.

"AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals”

“Homosexuality is Satan's diabolical attack upon the family that will not only have a corrupting influence upon our next generation, but it will also bring down the wrath of God upon America.”


I am glad this mother fucker is dead.  By the way wasn't he involved in a sex scandal several years ago?

Anybody remember the comedy song put out on the radio when Jim Bakker got popped?

"Keep It In Your Pants, Jimmy"

Keep it in your pants, Jimmy!
Get down and praise the Lord!
You can't be pulling out that thing whenever you get bored!

Keep it in your pants, Jimmy!
And mend your evil ways!
And when you get a woody, bring it home to Tammy Faye!


(Don't ask me why I still remember the words to that damn song.  It's been 20 years!)
