Good riddens to Falwell and bigots like him.
His famous quotes:
_On Sept. 11_ (https://home.comcast.net/~joe.grabko/falwell.mp3) : "The
abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be
mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. 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.' "
On AIDS: "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals."
_On homosexuality_
(http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/assault/interviews/falwell.html) : "I believe that all of us are born heterosexual,
physically created with a plumbing that's heterosexual, and created with the
instincts and desires that are basically, fundamentally, heterosexual. But I
believe that we have the ability to experiment in every direction.
Experimentation can lead to habitual practice, and then to a lifestyle. But I don't
believe anyone begins a homosexual."
_On Martin Luther King Jr_
(http://books.google.com/books?id=k8uPHtrU8BsC&pg=PR14&lpg=PR14&dq=jerry+falwell+%22i+do+question+the+sincerity%22+martin+luther
+king&source=web&ots=nwXrS6wtzA&sig=EeUH34PddpmHk-WKORxpRNraVtk#PPR14,M1) .:
"I must personally say that I do question the sincerity and non-violent
intentions of some civil rights leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mr.
James Farmer, and others, who are known to have left-wing associations."
_On Martin Luther King Jr., four decades later_
(http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5522064) : "You know, I supported Martin Luther
King Jr., who did practice civil disobedience."
On public education: "I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early
days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have
taken them over again, and Christians will be running them."
On the separation of church and state: "There is no separation of church
and state."
_On feminists_ (http://mediamatters.org/items/200411230011) : "I listen to
feminists and all these radical gals. ... These women just need a man in the
house. That's all they need. Most of the feminists need a man to tell them
what time of day it is and to lead them home. And they blew it and they're mad
at all men. Feminists hate men. They're sexist. They hate men; that's their
problem."
On global warming: "I can tell you, our grandchildren will laugh at those
who predicted global warming. We'll be in global cooling by then, if the Lord
hasn't returned. I don't believe a moment of it. The whole thing is created
to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability."
On Bishop Desmond Tutu: "I think he's a phony, period, as far as
representing the black people of South Africa."
_On Islam_
(http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/10/03/60minutes/main524268.shtml) : "I think Mohammed was a terrorist. I read enough of the history of
his life, written by both Muslims and non-Muslims, that he was a violent man, a
man of war."
_On Jews_ (http://www.slate.com/id/45483/) : "In my opinion, the Antichrist
will be a counterfeit of the true Christ, which means that he will be male
and Jewish, since Jesus was male and Jewish."
