remembering jerry falwell


america carries a heavy heart today as jerry falwell passes on to another realm. i pay tribute to him by citing a few quotes from his many years of christian ministry:


"I do question the sincerity of people like the Reverend Martin Luther King..."


"Labor unions should study and read the Bible instead of asking for more money. When people get right with God, they are better workers."


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


Jerry on the anti-christ: "must be, of necessity, a Jewish male"


On the 9/11 attacks: "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.'"


And my personal favorite: "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals."


May you rest in peace you fat, bigoted fuck.
