The quote from Buechner is a good one, and would perhaps apply if there were such a thing as sin (there isn't) and if I was consumed with hatred and anger (I'm not).
Falwell's death is a welcome piece of good news in the unrelenting bleakness of NeoCon Hell all thinking people have been living through for the past six years, and we can only hope that Dick Cheney is not far behind.
PS. Those of us who lived through the 80s and lost friends to AIDS more or less directly because of Falwell's influence on the Reagan administration have a SPECIAL hatred for the man that younger people, I think, do not fully appreciate.
