Goodbye Jerry Falwell and Good Riddance

Jerry Falwell is dead and I have been struggling with my conscience about being nice or not, my conscience says follow the theme of your Blog and be truthful, so be it.

So here goes, Jerry Falwell was, in my opinion, one of the most hypocritical religious figures ever to use Christ as a means to acquire wealth. Don’t get me wrong, his counterpart Pat Robertson is probably the most obnoxious and the biggest blood sucking legionnaire of the anti-Christ.

But I digress, the issue is Jerry Falwell and while all the politicians will be praising his name and all the great accomplishments none will offer to the public his most famous positions:

“Billy Graham is the chief servant of Satan in America”

“If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being”

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

“It appears that America's anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men's movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening”

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

“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.”

"[homosexuals are] brute beasts...part of a vile and satanic system [that] will be utterly annihilated, and there will be a celebration in heaven.”

These are just some examples of how Jerry Falwell leached his way to wealth while diminishing other human beings. I am sure that the gates of Hell are strewed with flames tonight as they welcome Jerry Falwell home. With any luck they will stoke up the flames for his comfort.

I am told that it is not within my power to forgive, only God can forgive, hence I will not forgive Jerry Falwell for all the pain and suffering he has brought to this Nation. The division he has caused using a saber that he called Christ is unforgivable in the mind of a sane patriotic American.

Goodbye Jerry Falwell and good riddance, if God was really good She would have dumped you in Hell a lot sooner.
