This country was founded on the principle of seperation of church and state and the freedom of religion, speech and several other key ideals.

When John Kennedy was running for President he was grilled by the Democrats and GOP on his catholicism and how that would affect his running the country and he reaffirmed that the idea of seperation of church and state would not be affected in anyway.

Falwell has dragged this country into a quagmire of the religious right trying to interject thier beliefs as the countrys only righteous policy and in doing so has helped divide this country in more ways than it has ever been since the slavery issue and brought us to where we are today with the Bush presidency and his total mismanagement of the Federal Govt and world affirs based on religious beliefs rather than diplomacy and the word and law of the constitution.

Good riddance Mr. Falwell.

I normally don't involve myself in political debate here, but I couldn't agree more, Steve. Nor could I phrase it any better.

I don't normally get involved with dead people either, but Mr. Falwell tried to bridge/close the seperation of church and state. When he did that he opened himself up to whatever befalls him.

Good riddance Mr. Falwell.

Sounds like your issue isnt so much with Falwell, but with religion in general. You seem to have some kinda hatred and distrust for people who pratcice religion. I dont see any long winded post from you regarding Islam, the religion that is the root of most of worlds problems today.

Ahhh Spence loves Islam! Those peace loving folks. No Radicals in that Religion!.All they do is strap bombs to thier chest, and fly planes into buildings killing 3000 folks in the name in Allah. But nah, thier religion is so peaceful.

Seems some on here are more concerned and outraged about the religious right, than they are of radical Islam.

In 1984, he was ordered to pay gay activist Jerry Sloan $5,000 after losing a court battle. During a TV debate in Sacramento, California, Falwell denied calling the gay-oriented Metropolitan Community Churches "brute beasts" and "a vile and Satanic system" that will "one day be utterly annihilated and there will be a celebration in heaven."

After the September 11, 2001 attacks, Falwell said on the 700 Club, "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.'" Fellow evangelist Pat Robertson concurred with his sentiment.

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

Like this guy is any better than Bin Laden or any other person out there who spewed hate and bile.
Get with it skip, you're straight up racist, if Bin Laden was white you wouldn't be so quick to jump on the anti-Islam train. Anyone who takes religion like Bin Laden or Falwell is WRONG.
