The Rev. Jerry Falwell, the television evangelist who founded the Moral Majority and used it to mold the religious right into a political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University. He was 73.

Ron Godwin, the university's executive vice president, said Falwell was found unresponsive late Tuesday morning and taken to Lynchburg General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later.

I didn't agree with a lot that Falwell said and done (so I am not defending him). But I don't think reveling, like some are doing, in his death is appropriate. It certainly doesn't give them the moral high ground. How does it make them any better than the Westboro Baptist bunch and what they did at Matthew Shepard's funeral?
Please don't get me wrong, I am not "reveling" in Falwell's death as I would not rejoice in any other persons death, (with a few notable exceptions!) This blog is mainly aout satire and God knows Falwell did enough in his life to justify all sorts of satire and ridicule. Just because he's dead doesn't get him off the hook for some of the stupid shit he has espoused over the years!
