| Tough one for me to answer without too much vitriol, so I'll keep it brief. Mr. Falwell was major enabler/instigator of a major rightward shift in this country's politics that in my opinion has made it a worse place. The negative impact of this will continue to echo through the decades. Just my opinion. |

Hmmmm....
I've been doing a much better job of educating myself to current events and politics and all that fun stuff in the last year and a half. That being said, I'd never heard of Jerry Falwell until he died.  |

i'm not very good with words, so i'm going to let President Jimmy Carter sum it up for me....
" Jerry Falwell can go straight to hell – and I mean that in a Christian way."
Now if only Pat Robertson would follow suit.... |

Ahh...he's the guy who tried to convince the world that Tinky Winky the Teletubby was created by homosexuals in an effort to "get the gay all over" little kids. He also blames 9/11 on liberals, feminists, and gays. Nice guy....

whoever created Teletubbies must have been on something or have some freaky things going on in their minds..maybe Jerry Falwell actually created Teletubbies. |

Sort of like Palpatine -- secretly create the crisis, then publicly fight it in order to gain power. Maybe I should give Rev. Falwell more credit -- *Yoda voice* or should I call you Darth Tinky-Winky? |
