Rest in Peace, Jerry Falwell
I'm not going to talk about politics or the controversy this man caused in his lifetime. I'm not going to crack jokes. I'm not going to be a hypocritical liberal who derides Falwell and men like him for their judgemental rhetoric and then turns around and engages in it myself. This is not the time for politics.
I pray for the well being of Mr. Falwell's family, and because I know his faith was sincere and real, I pray that he's in a better place now and is home with his Lord. That's really all I can say.

I understand. I read a particularly nasty post over on an LJ friend of mine's blog, and it motivated me to post this. I think now is as good a chance as any to be the better person. We all know what he said and what he did - now's not the time to rehash it.
My opinion, at least. :)
