gacked from Salon: Falwell's epitaph?

[quesarah]

Some quotes to remember Jerry Falwell by:

In reference to 9/11:
"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.'"

"I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them."

"AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals."

"Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them."

And much, much more.

"Perhaps, in obedience to the Golden Rule, we should do for Mr. Falwell what he would surely have done for us if our places were reversed, which is to pray for his soul to be brought into the bosom of our Gods."

That would be a very generous act, indeed.

What a legacy. I wonder how many people go to his funeral hoping to give a eugoogoly that speaks the truth...

I don't know. The damage he did to our society will be hard to heal.
