Right-wing Rev. Jerry Falwell, an evangelical icon once courted by Republicans and scorned by liberals for his tirades against homosexuality and abortion, died yesterday in his office at Virginia's Liberty University So reports The London Free Press and other newspapers around the globe.
Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, extended condolences on Falwell's death but said he'll be remembered as "someone who demonized and vilified us for political gain and someone who used religion to divide rather than unite our nation."
Should we be hapy or sad at his passing? If anyhting I am relieved. Definitely not sad. What I wonder is what will happen when he stands before the Pearly Gates? Will St Peter send him on down to the Devil? Who knows. I sure don't, thats for sure.
