A man like Falwell...And I am not anonymous, either. <BR/><BR/>A man like Falwell who preached such vile excuses for religion did no services to humanity or Gods. He wished great ill on me, my religion, and my friends. <BR/><BR/>I would have loved to see him recant his evil publicly, but I had no real hope of this happening... and it didn't, alas. The next best thing was for him to shut up. His departure seems to have been the only way for this to have happened. <BR/><BR/>Larry Flynt had a really great obituary for Falwell, who (oddly enough) he became friends with. They avoided discussions of morality and would relate as men and grandparents. (Strange how some things work out, I must say!) One of the things that Flynt said was about Falwell's public persona, which he said was distinctly different. Makes me wonder how much of the public persona was real. <BR/><BR/>Well, Jerry's off talking to his god now, who probably has had a great deal to say to ol' Jerry on the nature of what love and acceptance are really all about. That's good, because no-one else was ever able to make it clear to him that what he was doing was a bad idea. It'd take a far better person than I to feel any sorrow that an evil in my life has died. <BR/><BR/>And I still say one down, one to go.John Hedtkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971999501208413242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11609234.post-13084318941174824942007-05-17T12:40:00.000-07:002007-05-17T12:40:00.000-07:00it is so sad to read such a hateful rant from you....it is so sad to read such a hateful rant from you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
