R.I.P, Jerry Falwell
I’m heartbroken to learn that great American televangelist Jerry Falwell passed away today.
Stay strong, America! Don’t worry, soon another self-righteous blowhard will come along to get rich off of instilling the fear of hell into ignorant people while using religion for political manipulation.
I’m not a betting man, because Falwell taught me that gambling is immoral, but if I were I’d put my money on a full blown Falwell resurection. A road trip to Lynchburg for the funeral may be in order - even if I don’t get to witness Jerry rising from the grave, I can still get in one last good-luck flick of the chicken goblet of fat that hangs off his neck.
