I am not at all unhappy about this.

Television evangelist Falwell dies at 73.

Good. One down, too many left to go. The most we can hope for is that the rest of these maroons adopt the Catholic doctrine that "Certain attempts to influence chromosomic or genetic inheritance are not therapeutic but are aimed at producing human beings selected according to sex or other predetermined qualities. These manipulations are contrary to the personal dignity of the human being and his or her integrity and identity." I want Dobson and his cronies to embrace full-force this doctrine. When people like Leon Kass and his ilk say, "Man's deepest natural desires can only be satisfied through an immortal union with the creator," what he really means is dead.

Just like Jerry.

THANK YOU. At least someone on my friendslist isn't going to play the in-spite-of-his-politics semi-sympathy bullshit game. Falwell spent his entire career making millions of dollars by trying to destroy people's lives. Sympathy? FUCK that. I'm glad he's dead. He is, as you say, one down.

On the other hand, as I note in my LJ, while I'm glad he's no longer a thorn in our sides, he's got a really *not* fun chunk of eternity coming up because of what he did with his life. *Especially* if (as I suspect) he wasn't merely misguided, but was doing that stuff to gain followers.

"Welcome to Hell, Mr. Falwell"

Maybe you should read my friendslist.

In honor of this day, I shall be reloading the seminal "Why Won't Jesse Helms Just Hurry Up and Die?" by MC Hawking onto my iPod. It's not exactly the right subject matter, but it's close enough.

I am not gloating. I am celebrating. There is one less dark shadow in the world, one less foul lord. Is that not reason enough to be cheerful?

Well, that was interesting. I tried to follow that link from my work computer and the work host network stopped me, saying that it was a banned site.

Makes up for the days it blocks me from checking out smutty stuff at work.
