missroseroseI suppose I shouldn't find it all that surprising that Jerry Falwell is dead - after all, 73 is pretty old for a corpulent white man with a history of heart problems. It still seems awfully sudden, though.
I may be wrong about this, but it's often appeared to me that people that vitriolic and hate-filled tend to live well into their 90s, seemingly subsisting on pure bitterness and spite. But I can't say as I'm sorry in this case.
To Mr. Falwell himself, I can only say: I'm sure you believed you were doing the right thing, and for that reason I'm glad you're no longer with us. But take heart - I'm certain there are plenty of folks willing to take up the hate-and-intolerance banner in your absence.
