The empty life of this ugly little charlatan proves only one thing: that you can get away with the most extraordinary offences to morality and to truth in this country if you'll just get yourself called "Reverend."
-Christofer Hitchens eulogizing professional liar, bigot, loudmouth, bully and con man Jerry Falwell
Falwell was NOT humble... and he used God's word for self promotion and political power for his allies... he didn't deserve any respect... just know thats a $60,000 casket he's in... remember what it says in the bible about prosteltyzing, being humble and rich men going to heaven like a camel and the eye of a needle?
Why didn'y they install Animatronics in Falwell, instead of burying him ?
They could then have put him in the visitor's center at Liberty University, where he could sit up in his casket and say "Momma! "to prospective students.
im surprized there wasnt protesters...it would have been nice considering everytime a "fag" died and he was aware he promoted the idea of people showing up at their funeral with hate chants and signs.
they really should have cracked the coffin open, shoved a pole up his ass and set him on fire
well i have family and friends that are gay and comments like "fags and jews are why 9/11 happened its gods way of punishing us" along with saying martin luther king was a shitty role model and "God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve." " AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals. " "If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being. "
was he wrong in saying that? This country does tolerate homosexuality and the bible directly calls the act of homosexuality a sin therefore this country tolerates sin. In the early years of this country, the United States prospered. We took God out of our Schools and out of most homes. We as a country are getting what we asked for.
we dont live in a dictatoship or a church ruled country so wether or not you believe its morally wrong due to your religious beliefs shouldnt come into consideration when talking about government policys...what he was doing was spreading bigotry to people who didnt know any better because they are impressionable and when you live your life for god and someone tells you that our government is going against his wishes your creating the idea that church and state go hand in hand.
also its nieve to expect the government to make rules to cater to a group of americans (christians) its fine to believe in god and not agree with homosexuality but the second you try to get the government to agree and set laws to impose these ideas then your basically spitting on the bill of rights which is the only comandments that should be posted anywhere outside of a church.
not everyone in america agrees with the bible so we shouldnt have laws that derive from it
Yeah, we also had slaves, treated blacks like crap, women were property, and most "good christians" thought it was just great to beat your kids. SO whats your point? Using the bible like you do, you seem to also miss the point that the US also sinned, They rebelled against they king, thier God given ruler. I think it was Paul that spoke about that.
"iharturine" Get a life! You need professional help! My brother and sister-in-law were murdered in the WTC by Islamic extremists.But, I so not consider every Muslim as extremists. I have friends who are Muslim, Christian and Jews who died in the WTC. You are so filled with HATE. Where is YOUR tolerence for anyone you disagree with!
your wrong, your speaking of fred phelps and his 15 member church..that's a small number compared to the millions of Christians that don't do such a thing..keep your mouth shut if you don't have the facts straight.
The Martin Luther King comment was true. Falwell was pro- Jim Crow. I'm a christian and I don't care for the man. What he did to the Bakkers was not christian. He stole the PTL right from under Jim Bakker, it was slimey. He knew Jim Bakker's sins and help cover it up. Pretend to be Jim Bakkers friend than stabbed Jim Bakker in the back on TV. Very christian isn't it?
Falwell had every right to address sin according to the word of God. And so does everyone else. But not according to what you want it to mean..you have to take the word of God in context. And a lot of ppl try to take a square peg and put it in a round circle. it won't work, that's not truth but a lie.
NOT at the expense of other people. He was free to follow what he wanted, but leave other people out of it. You might have your rights, but so do they. To live life as they see fit. You can have your truth, but let others have thiers too.

The judicial system would do nothing to him becouse he was a Jerry Farwell worshiper. He was above the law. Actually I was the only one charged in the incident. He charged me with phone harassment for calling him about my stolen property.
"god bless jerry fallwell" ...with a pitchfork and the place where the sun don't shine!
Here's me hoping jerry got his wish and became a demon dishing out fiery worship on young islamist's arses with his 'staff of redemption' for all eternity!
Falwell could have been a great man to stand up for teaching the fact that God loves us. However, instead he chose to start a hate campaign that divided Christians, divided the nation, and scared non-believers into falsely thinking that all Christians are hatemongers. He didn't speak for me and I'm a believer myself. He did more to bring discredit to the faith rather than build it up. I pray for Falwell's soul, I hope he isn't turned over to Satan and hell.
It's ranking in law are ok. However it's science departments are very very poor. It is a disgusting that a University can claim it can find evidence of man walking with dinosaurs. The U.S. is a place of knowledge. Places like Liberty make a mockery of it. I am a bit of a school snob so do not take it too harshly. hehe I did both my undergrad and Masters at Cal
Gab, good school from what I hear. You know, I refuse to refer to anyone that Liberty gives anyone a doctorate to as Dr. I am not all that educated myself, but I respect it very much. And Liberty from what I have seen over all is a joke. Some areas might be so-so, but over all its a shame. Man walking with Dino indeed!
Im so excited that the students at Liberty University maintain irrational ideas about "God" and Science because it gives me faith that social evolution is sequestering the unintelligent and non-critical thinkers into smaller hordes, so that its easier to warn our children and other weak minded individuals to steer clear of their mindlessness and indoctrination.
What IS so obvious about your posting as well as the others who post hateful messages, is that you never had any contact with the Man, the Church or the University. If you had, I wouldn't be writing this reply.
Um, we are all familar with the HATE Fatwell had to say about everything and everybody..."Securlize America", his own church was a vain and stupid securlization to begin with by not allowing african americans to go there until he found out they actually have money too, money he can steal and invest for his own hatful sins. Plenty of people have been in contact with him and burnt by him...U are just another follower of bigotry.
why would you say something like that jerry falwell was my pastor and granted he was harsh at sometimes but he DID soften up a little he was just standing up for what he believed in and if you have a problem with him try to keep it inside your big mouth!!!
You have blind obedience , devotion and loyalty to a bigoted, hate filled tyrant and you call us ignorant? You want people to just shut up and speak out? I'm certain some who were loyal to Hitler said the same things. I HAVE listened to Falwell!
first of all i do not have a blind obedience to him.I came from a family that hated him. I was the one to chose what to believe for myself. secondly how was he a tyrant? I don't remember him destroying cities. i'm girl who thinks the shit yall are saying is disgusting and makes me sick (fyi im fourteen).i agree that he was harsh at times but he was a great guy if you actually took the time to think about what he was saying.
Pinkfrostedice33. You do have to apoligize for Dr. Falwell speaking the truth. No of us do, for we all know who he really was. A man of God! Don't ever let the world bring you down because that's exactly what they are trying to do. Hold your head high and remember everything that Jerry taught us.
No he was NOT why cant all you haters just leave him alone? if your not willing to listen to what he had to say then you shouldnt be willing to speak i love my pastor no matter what you or anyone else says. i just wish ignorant people like you would keep your big mouths closed!
I am from Scotland and studied at Liberty 10 years ago. I was sorry to hear of Jerry's passing he was a man of faith who stood firm for the gospel. My prayers are with Jerry's family and the staff and students at Liberty. God Bless
Foolishness, here u are praising a man who stood for white supremcay in S.Africa white supremacy in America during the 60's now who'se foolish i bet if Jesus himself was here he wouldn't get a place in falwells church, u know him being a semite and all but i guess in ur warped view he was probably blond and blue eyed
Who's (Who's) foolish? First of all, I'm smart enough to use punctuation. Second, you have no clue what you're talking about. You go by what your liberal media tells you. Have you seen one of Rev. Falwell's sermons? I think not. If you have, you paid absolutely no attention.
He said Katrina and 9/11 were caused by homosexuals and abortionists, and tried to sue Hustler. Left wingers and atheists just said, "now hold on there". The guy WAS a bigot - he really was. There's no getting round it. He was a hater. Sorry.
You bigoted xtians just love distracting people from the truth about fell-to-hell-well by playing the martyr. Didn't save his ass and it won't save yours.
THANK YOU for putting these video on for us. There are so many all over the world who loved Dr. Falwell & would love to be there to show respects, but are unable. Your videos are helping us feel more a part of what's going on there in Lynchburg. Thank you.
Why didn't the phony hypocrite bastard take Pat Robertson with him to hell???
