‘If He Were Here, It Would Be Different’

Rot in hell Farwell!

Farwell was a hate monger and a polarizing figure for extremist Christian. America is far better off without his hate message and speech. I hope he is recieving his appropriate punishment if there is truly a God up there.

The Bible is fiction and a piece of trash just like the crap Macel writes in her book. She needs money because her loser dead husband's cause is not bringing her in any money . Anyone sane is running away from the Bush right wing Evangelical crap that Bush aligned himself with in a sad and sorry losing cause. You guys need to believe in Zuess. He has more history in solving your wrongs than that imaginary new friend who you whisper to every day.

Religion must stay out of politics!! Period!

Comment: I have always heard that when you throw a rock at a pack of wolves the one that yelps is the one that got hit. Only this time the rock was thrown at a pack of toads.

Comment: Nobody is yelping here, buddy. I and millions of others, however- are SICK of seeing the sheep of the nation swindled out of their money and minds by snake oil salesman like Falwell. All these churches and congregations giving up billions of dollars, to have the finger of the preacher pointed back at them and belittled. Not a man alive has any more right than another to point fingers and preach that a difference in their fellow man is wrong. No one. No more justification than the next, we are ALL sinners. It's about time for people like JF to stop the finger-pointing and DO something to benefit society. Build houses. Subsidize seniors and low-income folks to pay their bills and buy the scrips they need to LIVE. This is Jesus-like and God-like. For every mega-church like Falwell's that is built, tens of thousands of down and out people can be assisted, clothed, fed. I cannot think of a single church off hand around here that has made a significant contribution to better society, because that would require real, hard, labor intensive WORK. Unlike dressing in a suit once a week and making everyone you're preaching to feel rotten about themselves, in trade for thousands of dollars. The whole point of a church is to build society and provide for those who can't- and to build the next generation of people to be equally as mighty in the pursuit of what is right and decent. It seems the church has lost its way in pursuit of greed. As long as extremists like JF exist, they really give liberals exactly what they want. They will cause anyone with a rational head to vote liberal. And before you go labeling me a Lib- I am anything BUT a Lib.

As I read some of these comments it saddened me to realize how much hatred existed within the hearts of people toward an individual who stood for what he thought was right. Dr. Falwell had the backbone to stand up against those who set out to destroy the very essence of what made our country so great. Consider the increase in our Nation's violent crime, our ever growing problem with drugs and alcohol, the problems in our schools, the breakdown of the family, just to name a few. The real problem is not with individuals like Dr. Falwell who are willing to speak out and confront issues like this. Rather, it is our Government's lack of backbone to confront the real issues that have been eating away at our foundation over the years. And let's not forget citizens like you and I who have been unwilling to take the heat and stand up for what we thought was right. No, it is easier to sit back and complain about the condition of our Nation and about individuals who are willing to do the fighting for us. I may not have always agreed with the way Dr. Falwell went about promoting his convictions, but I admire the man for not sitting around waiting for others to do all the work. I consider it an honor to have graduated from Liberty University. Dr. Falwell lived what he preached and he served as a good role model for all those who sat under his teaching. If you hope to continue enjoying the freedoms that you have been granted over the years, you better hope that God has someone else in mind that is going to speak out in our best interrest. And it doesn't have to be a Baptist preacher. It could be anyone. What if it's you? Could Americans depend on you? Do you have what it takes? If not, don't tear apart someone who does, instead, thank God that someone else is strong enough to speak out.

Pity there isn't a hell for him to burn in!

I'm a very fragile person who can't form an opinion for myself so i relie on people like Falwell to mold me. I have been told at a very early age that I am not a good person, I have bad thoughts, and I am damned for eternity. Religion has helped me disguise my impure thoughts from society. People like me have to hate everyone else because that validates me. Everyone else has to be wrong because my limited thought process can't calculate beyond pre-adalesence impulse thinking. I will stop at nothing in order to show everyone else that I am right and they are wrong. My cleverest defence is attacking people with the qualities that I share and am so ashamed of. My verocity is rewarded with the comfort that they will never find out how much we actually have in common. I hate myself and I'm so afraid.
