Rest in Peace, Mr Falwell. Didn’t always agree with what you had to say, but you were man enough to say it looking straight at the camera’s, and therefore the world.

That alone makes you worthy of respect, even among your detractors.

Prayers.

Roger Hedgecock (subbing for Rush) just described him, “a real reverend, unlike some of the people we talk about here.”

Jerry Falwell has done much to further the cause of Christ, and is an unapologetic American patriot.

And thats the part I loved about him.

I attend his law school at Liberty. Falwell has established an excellent institution. Very sad.

Well put Appy. The demons are rejoicing...temporarily.

The world will be a far more empty place without Reverend Falwell in it. I hope our prayers sped his journey to the Almighty Father, as our tears continue to fall.

The slaves of sin at DU are taking glee in his death. Jerry Falwell is in a better place and the least in heaven is greater than the greatest here. Yet, those on DU who will go to hell unless they repent of their sin through faith.

I don’t know a whole lot about Rev Falwell, but I do know that he tried to serve God to the best of his ability. He wasn’t perfect, but he was motivated by love for the truth.

Rest in Peace.

You won’t like it there at all. I’ve saved it all for future use.
