This is brilliant. The following clip is from "Anderson Cooper 360".

It´s a 1983 parody of a magazine advertisement featuring Falwell and published in Hustler.

And here's some more information about the case Hustler Magazine vs. Falwel:

I'll say it for you Lisa,

Good riddance!

Upon hearing about Jerry Falwell passing I finally said, Now Mr. Falwell you will see what heaven really is. He'll find it full of every make of woman, man, and child. God never made a mistake, ever. In order for us to know love we have had to feel it's ugly opposite. Every person has served a purpose and though Mr. Falwell may never have realized he served more for the gay community then he ever knew. He helped unite us. Yes, he brought forth discussions of how we must stand and scream from the rooftops, pride festivals, blogs, etc. that we are here, have been here from the start and that we love, we have families and most importantly God doesn't make mistakes. God didn't make a mistake when I came into this world, nor did God make one when you enter this existance. I've made a difference in this world, I'm a Mother, a Grandmother and I given this world a son who knows no hatred and through him and his wonderful wife, their children will know no hatred, nor will they judge the labels others are given.

" Life is not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself."

"Real love is seeing the other person's insanity and agreeing to live there with them."

YAY!!! YAY!!! YAY!!!!

Don't care if that's offensive or not. :P

Eh, I'm sure the conservatives will find some way to blame it all on us queers. *rolls eyes*

My father was the head of administrative computing at Liberty University (Jerry Falwell's college) for 11 years. We lived in Lynchburg, VA (Where J.F.'s church and college are located) for around 12 years, we even went to his church. After watching my dad work under him for so long and be fired under him I have got to say, from first hand experience, that he was a vile person. However he was still a person that deserved life just like anyone else. Believe me, I do not like the man and I have a many negative feelings towards him, but I don't think we should mock or celebrate anyones death. I think us doing that is just playing into the stereotype that "gays" are evil. We should be the "bigger man" and do what a "smaller" man like Jerry would've never been able to do, mourn the loss of a human life despite the differences between us. Let's show that the stereotypes are wrong!

They've been showing a video of an interview with him from last week. Said he was asking God for like 20 more years or something.... Obviously he didn't have as much pull as he thought he did

You know, I am a loving, peaceful person.. but this man made my jaw drop and skin crawl with his hateful, hurtful words....

To be honest he is not worth my anger or hate....why spread around a disease that he so willingly passed on to so many.
But neither do I feel sorrow....he has hurt to many....not just all my sisters.....(as you all are) but Afro Americans, Jews..etc etc.......he seemed to have and unending list.
I think my feeling about his death is that I don't feel anything. And that is sad for him ...to say that his life was so ho hum to me that it provokes nothing.
Ok maybe that last statement is false because I do hope he rests in peace and that he has found out that God is not only a woman......but a lesbian and that she is makeing him watch the first 4 seasons of the L Word......and all of QAF.

Oh well, what can you say? Always anger in religion
I try to stay outta church & and away from the whole
God VS Satan thing.Angry preachers screaming,
gives me Panic Attacks & a Bad Headache...lol!
Anybody got a Valium? : ) Yummy!

I don't want to turn this into a predictable, mean-spirited "Good riddance" type of blog post - LISA
With the greatest respect, Lisa, if you post more of this man's irrational diatribes, that's exactly what this thread will turn into ! He's dead and his homophobic opinions have died with him. Let it stay that way.
In any event, we're still left with his sycophantic followers who will doubtless be espousing their "beloved leader's" views until they also draw their last breath.

==========================================
> All this ... and brains too ! <

i never get "happy" when someone is dies but i am glad that he died. I mean sure, he probably was a nice guy to people who knew and loved him but his ideas are the reason why in some parts of the world we as a community must hide for fear of attack (physical or emotional). It angers me that people like this are aloud to run around and preach hate and indirectly incite hateful responses upon the gay and lesbian community. These are the same ideas behind the sorrowful beating and death of Matthew Sheperd. Am I heart broken at all? No. I hope in his next life he is gay and gets hated by people like him. And yes Mr. Farwell, I am a lesbian and a pagan but I know my life did not make those nut cases crash into buildings.
