I pray for him and his family.

Falwell was a long way from being my favorite person, I had major disagreements with much of his ideology, though not all, however this isn't the time to get into that IMO. He was important and had an effect on the world larger than most, and even though I often disagreed with him I never remotely felt the kind of hatred and acrimony I've seen expressed on the leftist sites.

I tell them how wrong they are any time a political discussion arises. Someone has to. As for the the good Reverend, I cannot fathom the depths of hatred by so many toward this fine gentleman. It might be worse than BDS! Here's a man who clearly put God first in all he did. His statements over which so many get the vapors, are generally his personal speculations, not a statement of fact. He was not the type to assume he knew the mind of God. If he said that God may have lifted His protection of our nation due to the immorality rampant in our society, and left it at that, it's quite possible he'd never have taken so much heat. But because he listed the examples of immorality that he did, that's what put so many lib undies in bunches. He should have said it was our greed, and then libs would stand beside him. But those groups he listed are indeed, from a Biblical perspective, immorality made acceptable and it's that acceptance, tolerance or national shrugging of shoulders that would justify God's actions as described by Falwell. But the lefty world, and some on the right, act as if he said that without a doubt God acted for the reasons Jerry listed and 9/11 happened. Personally, his speculations about why it happened are as good as any I've heard, and better than the lefty notion that we brought it upon ourselves for siding with Israel or whatever.

It's kind of like farting, it only makes people uncomfortable no matter how much it relieves you. I do fairly often have to suffer from some annoying diatribes from the more leftist people I run into. You'll be proud of me though, I don't slap them silly even though they desperately need it. In my experience it's the liberals that seem to need to constantly spew about their politics and how eviiil Bush/Cheney are. I usually just look at them like they are speaking Swahili and they mostly just wander off with that dazed and confused look so typical of the species. North Dakota eh. OK so you molest small furry animals instead of living in an enclave, that better? Where you grew up isn't important, I notice you don't mention where you live now, enclave perhaps?

This proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that the "tolerance" liberals claim to have a monopoly on is a clearcut sham and their "love" is a perversion and delusion they have. They only love and have tolerance for themselves and their own kind. They practice an evil form of prejudice wrapped in the skin of hypocrisy. And for that they condemn themselves and their kind. I pity them. The liberals’ hate-filled comments on many, many blogs are disgusting and have really angered me.

Falwell became an embarrasment for the conservative movement. He was an easy target for the heathen left media and they used this good man as a punching bag every chance they had. That being said he did not do himself any favors toward the end. But in the early 80's he woke up a good cross section of God fearing Americans and for that he will be revered and remembered as a truly great conservative American citizen. In my mind his positives far outweighed his negatives. Rest in peace Rev. Falwell. **== It pains me to say that Rev. Falwell became an embarrasment for the conservative movement.
