Jerry Falwell Dies at 73

Never take joy in the death of another, but in this case it's a little hard not to. The world, today, is a better place than yesterday. Now that Mr. Falwell, found of the obscenely named "Moral Majority", has popped off, perhaps some of his compatriots in religious intolerance will follow along. I hope it wasn't painful, because I don't wish that on almost anyone. But the honest answer is Good Riddance. I am confident that if Heaven and Hell exist, he's burning eternally in purgatory for his sins against humanity.

From the AP Wire: The Rev. Jerry Falwell, who founded the Moral Majority and built the religious right into a political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University, a school executive said. He was 73. Ron Godwin, the university's executive vice president, said "CPR efforts were unsuccessful," he said. Godwin said he was not sure what caused the collapse, but he said Falwell "has a history of heart challenges."

One ought not preach intolerance and hatred, and when you preach against exclusion for any reasons (gays, for just one example) for something that cannot be controlled, you are preaching hatred. When you stand for saying someone will go to hell for not sharing your beliefs, you are becoming a fascist. Falwell was not a nice man, he was not a good man, he was an evil man. And if you really believe in God, evil men will go to Hell. I'll find out because I'm pretty sure I'll go there too -- I hope there's an opening in IT (of course, being Hell, it's probably a Windows shop.)

Screw The Terrorists: Kill 'em all and let God sort it out

Another bad day -- at least it was for normal people everywhere. It's stories like this that make you think genocide isn't the worst idea ever. How on earth can someone think blowing ten airplanes full of innocent people out of the sky is a smashing-good idea? What is the mind-set for that? How can anyone think that's going to bring people around to their cause?

I've always realized it's been a small group of nut-case Islamic extremist fundamentalists that have the mind-set that killing to make a point is a good idea. However, it seems more and more that the non-extremist Muslim community is not willing to speak out. That's guilt by association. Although I don't think genocide is a good idea and is morally reprehensible, if an act like today's attempted terror attack had succeeded, a lot more people would start thinking along the lines of the old cliché: "Kill them all and let God sort it out."

I don't understand the logic and I fully fault the mostly peaceful members of the Muslim community for not turning in their extremist members. The madness must stop or at some point the world will rise up in an effort to exterminate them. They may outnumber us, but we can lay them flat quickly if we don't have to worry about civilians. My guess is most of the Muslim world could be wiped off the map in 48 hours using some well placed nuclear weapons. I want to reiterate that nuclear holocaust is a bad idea, but if you don't think Bush or some other nation will consider it at some point, you're sadly mistaken. The English, Americans, and Russians have all had their fill of barbaric acts. The Spanish and French are getting weary too, but I'm not quite sure they're crazy enough to act.

(I'm waiting for the Muslims to do something to China. China won't hesitate to do retaliate brutally and everyone knows it. That's why China is safe because China just doesn't care what anyone else has to say about their actions.)

Oh, and a clever joke from F.H. just to help everyone laugh or be pissed off:
Recently I received a warning about the use of this politically incorrect term, so please note:

We all need to be more sensitive in our choice words. I have been informed that the Islamic terrorists who hate our guts and want to kill us do not like to be called "Towel Heads" since the item they wear on their heads is not actually a towel, but in fact, a small folded sheet.

Therefore, from this point forward, please refer to them as "Little Sheet Heads."

Thank you for your support and compliance on this delicate matter.
