‘If He Were Here, It Would Be Different’

While Ms. Falwell's assertion of her not being "too well bred" is interesting in it's own right, it should not have any bearing on her ability to form an opinion on the position of the "religious right" in November's election.

Hate and Intolerance was his Gospel.
I believe that there is a "Special" place in Hell for the false "Men of God".
after all................................... Wasn't Jesus a Liberal ?

The Bible was written thousands of years ago. The writer relies on this book written by male authors who were human beings with their own ignorance, prejudices against women, slaves, "infidels" and those born with a homosexual orientation. They were humans with a human tendency to lie and distort and create myth. Thousands of years ago there ws no sicence, DNA research or biology. Since the time the bible has been written archeologists have uncovered Hominids, which are half man, half ape skeltons. They have been proven to be man's ancestors. Just recently
Scientists have made one of the most important fossil finds in history: a missing link between fish and land animals, showing how creatures first walked out of the water and on to dry land more than 375m years ago.
Paleontologists have said that the find, a crocodile-like animal called the Tiktaalik roseae and described in the journal Nature, could become an icon of evolution in action. Farish Jenkins, an evolutionary biologist at Harvard University said: "This represents a critical early phase in the evolution of all limbed animals, including humans - albeit a very ancient step." If the writer continues to believe in a god that supposedly created human beings just to send them to hell, (including the writers mother) for only not believing in him based on years of research and evidence, than this is not a god that should be worshipped and the writer is wasting her time on this earth.

I along with many other people supported and loved Jerry Falwell and his wife. His ministry still continues on even with all the haters out there. I am reading more hate on the posted comments. I haven't read any thing hateful and negative from his supporters or Christians. Hate the sin but love the sinner. That was his message. My experience at Liberty University and Thomas Road Baptist Church was nothing less than "Great". I have many good memories and friends to this day from my college days. I will continue to pray and support the ministry and message!!!!!! Kelli Vanderpool - Lutz

Blah, blah, blah ... good riddance! ???Not this time, not this year???.

Perhaps the writer, being a female, believes that she was created from a man's rib, and the earth is only 6,000 years old as well and dinosaurs lived at the same time as "Adam and Eve". Perhaps she believe that it was the "Holy Spirit" working in the lives of priests that sexually abused children, "pastors" that have lied and embezzled money from their congregations and nuns that have been impregnated by priests who could not live up to a misguided "vow of celibacy".

I believe in "Lucy", a skeleton, carbon dated and scientifically authenticated I can see with my own eyes, rather than "Eve or Mary" who were obvious literary creations, along with a mythical sky-god named "jesus". The writer believes in fear based "armegeddon" and "rapture". I believe in humans working together and helping each other for the betterment of this world.

Because I believe in the seen rather than the unseen and unproven, I can face death with bravery and more importantly, I can face life with honesty, clear thinking, human empathy, and more passion than I ever could when I was a "believer". (This is the opinion of Jack Richter, a Sartell resident who is a former catholic and fundamentalist Baptist who now embraces atheism and is a member of Minnesota atheists and American Atheists.) )

Blah, blah, blah ... good riddance! ???Not this time, not this year???.

We are we told not to believe in a fairytale. But its silly how these holly rollers believe that the biggest fairytale of them all is true.

This woman is just like her husband. A BIGOT! The only reason she will vote for Mc Cain is that he is white.
Her husband was nothing other than an intolerent, racist, homophobic BIGOT! I know MANY people that were less than sad when he died. MANY. I can not beleive that she can not be alone after he passed away. GET OVER IT! There are millions of people that have had to do just that, by themselves! It is time that the people in the world that are truly haters have to answer to the allmighty. .HATE and INTOLERENCE were not part of Jesus' teaching. Someone who hated so much will NOT be missed. It was bound to happen, that his "church" will continue to spiral downward.

I think your missing the point bob. Who hasn't taken a limo for a burger? jeez...us

Comment: ecmcomichael, I agree with you wholeheartedly. The comments of hate by so many people really have been an eye opener for me. I have not read one harsh comment by a Christian in this blog.

Comment: Obviously you have not paid attention to the comments. Time and again there are those judging remarks that are forbidden yet here they are. Falwwll was just a man and like all men he died. Like you and I will. I suggest you worry more about your relationship with God while you are alive and forget about the Dead. The dead are now the province of God; not men. And I bet you, like all men, have plenty of sin. Worry about that. People don't like Falwell because he was too judgental and narrow minded; too political and not God Fearing enough. The love f God is always attractive and beautiul. Those who emminate that love are like honey to bees. I really don't think Falwel did that well for most of us and that is why you see these comments. When the Crocadile Hunter died there was only kindness expressed in the blogs. He made a difference by example and I never heard that he spoke an unkind word about anyone or any living creature.

Reverend Fallwell was a good friend. Our best wishes to Mrs. Fallwell and family. Spencer Hayden & Family, Taylor, Az.

What she we do with those Baptists cathy? SHAME on them for sure. Your comment was like a cool breeze amidst a storm. I thank you.

The Democratic energy package would have imposed a 25 percent tax on any ???unreasonable??? profits of the five largest U.S. oil companies, which together made $36 billion during the first three months of the year. It also would have given the government more power to address oil market speculation, opened the way for antitrust actions against countries belonging to the OPEC oil cartel, and made energy price gouging a federal crime.

???Americans are furious about what???s going on,??? declared Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D. He said they want Congress to do something about oil company profits and the ???orgy of speculation??? on oil markets.

But Republican leaders said the Democrats??? plan would do harm rather than good ??? and they kept the legislation from being brought up for debate and amendments.

Now brainwashed republicans, blame democrats.. Your party is destroying this country.

There is not much difference between Jerry Falwell and Usama they both try and kill people just in different ways. Jerry tried to unite his followers and kill with hate and intolerance and Usama is killing with terrorism while both do it under the auspices of religion. If that is religion I know the world will be better place without it.
