Wow. Jerry Falwell died yesterday. Just the other day someone used the term "moral majority" and wahey, the founder of the actual Moral Majority is dead! I think I shall go home and play that Dead Kennedys song a few times.

Let's look back on the long and prosperous life of this televangelical 'gentleman' by looking at some of his greatest quotes!

  • "Homosexuality is Satan's diabolical attack upon the family that will not only have a corrupting influence upon our next generation, but it will also bring down the wrath of God upon America."

  • "If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being."

  • "God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve." blaming civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001

  • "AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals."

  • "Someone must not be afraid to say, 'moral perversion is wrong.' If we do not act now, homosexuals will 'own' America!...If you and I do not speak up now, this homosexual steamroller will literally crush all decent men, women, and children who get in its way...and our nation will pay a terrible price!"

  • "There's been a concerted effort to steal Christmas." Well, be fair, Dick Cheney is probably the Grinch, I mean look at him, and he would totally try to steal Christmas, or have it sponsored by Halliburton, where children were only allowed to be given high grade weapons as presents.

  • "It appears that America's anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men's movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening."

  • "There is no separation of church and state. Modern US Supreme Courts have raped the Constitution and raped the Christian faith and raped the churches by misinterpreting what the Founders had in mind in the First Amendment to the Constitution."

    Bye bye, you old windbag! I'm sure Tinky Winky sends his regards.

    Oh dear. The FA Cup is on Sunday and Jose Mourinho has been arrested over a dog dispute. And it turns out he lives around the corner from me. Tempted to pop in and say 'hi'...

    Have some tentative good news: Cancer survival rates have doubled, according to experts. Of course there's lots of variables and blah blah, but that's not so bad. Still need newer and better drugs...

    It's miserable out, I feel like shit and I'd quite like this week to be over now, please.
