The Rev. Fallwell, like Jesus, was a divider. Both were /are hated for rightousness’ sake. Calling sin just that will never win you any popularity contest. However, Jerry spoke the truth staight from the Living Word of God, The Bible, a book with which far too many are far too unfamiliar. His detractors and critics should educate themselves before exposing their spiritual ignorance.

By condemning him to hell don’t you put yourself on the same level as him? If we who claim to be so tolerant in our love for everyone can’t treat this man with the respect that every human being deserves are we not hypocrites? I would reccommend actually reading his works or listening to his sermons before you make judgments as to his eternal soul. I’m not sure when we became gods of the universe, but maybe we should relinquish the great responsibility of damning someone to hell to someone who is more qualified.

Falwell has to be one of the weakest and most uneducated individuals in a powerful position. He has the incredible ability to get millions of people to buy into his nonsense. The people (gays and lesbians, feminist, abortionists and the ACLU) that Falwell slanders are the people that have the courage to be different or speak out on beliefs that are different from his. Falwell leads his followers to believe that God is seeking revenge for these peoples actions by directing terrorist attacks upon us. A true Christian believes that God shows forgiveness for everyone who sincerely repents. Do we truely want his type of Christin society taking over our children and schools? His general interest was for his status, power and financial security for himself. I believe that he would sell his family to the devil if the price was right.

Thank you for your thoughtful words about Rev. Falwell. Unfortunately, not everyone has the decency to let the pastor’s family and friends morn for a few days before denigrating the man. As I explain in my blog post, “Assassinating the Dead,” those who would do so place themselves on par with the likes of Fred Phelps, who often shows up at funerals to despise the deceased.
