Liberty University Idiot's Extra Credit

A wonderful example of the Reverend Jerry Falwell's work.

Mark David Ahl, A Liberty University student, worried that people may disrupt the reverend's funeral today, decided to take matters into his own hands:

LYNCHBURG, Virginia (CNN) -- A first-year Liberty University student was arrested in what police said was a plot to detonate explosive devices Tuesday, the day of the Rev. Jerry Falwell's funeral.

Mark David Uhl's intended target is unknown, authorities said.

ABC News reported the youth told authorities he had made the bombs -- which were found in his car -- to stop protesters from disrupting Falwell's funeral. (Read the story about Falwell's funeral)

Police received a call about 11 p.m. Monday from one of Uhl's family members, who said they had talked with him and he had "mentioned some explosive devices he had made," said Maj. Steve Hutcherson of the Campbell County, Virginia, sheriff's office.

Authorities found in Uhl's vehicle "what appeared to be about six explosive devices" that had detonation devices with them, Hutcherson said. The homemade devices were canisters with some kind of liquid inside.

Wow. Just Wow.

Jerry Falwell Has Died

The Rev. Jerry Falwell, who founded the Moral Majority and built the religious right into a political force, died Tuesday shortly after being found unconscious in his office at Liberty University, a school executive said. He was 73.

-Story-

Here are some Falwell's controversial quotes/remarks from Wikipedia:

Falwell was a controversial subject for his theological, political and social beliefs. After the September 11, 2001, attacks Falwell said on the 700 Club, "I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.'" (a sentiment with which Pat Robertson concurred). After heavy criticism, Falwell apologized. As for homosexuality, Falwell remarked, "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals." Falwell's ghostwriter, Mel White, said Falwell remarked about gay protesters, "Thank God for these gay demonstrators. If I didn't have them, I'd have to invent them. They give me all the publicity I need."

During the Civil Rights Movement Falwell was a supporter of racial segregation. He said this about Martin Luther King, "I do question the sincerity of people like the Reverend Martin Luther King..."

In honor of Jerry Falwell's passing, here is a photo of the world being a better place:

Why Conservative Evangelicals are the Most Bestester Ever Ever

Below, to share with you all, are quotes from "The Shepard's Chapel" - A 3 AM TV show on the international channel. The following are from Conservative Pastor Arnold Murray. If you like to know more about him, he refers to himself as "Dr." but not even his supporters know if he actually received a doctorate. More information about him is here. Apparently, he believes the Jews are the result of an affair between Cain and Satan.

Below are the quotes. Laugh at will:

"If you light a flame in a Kerosene refrigerator, it freezes the ice and makes homemade ice cream."

"If you're not pleasuring him then don't ask me why you are not blessed."

"I have been told that raisin bran is a form of idolatry."

"'I will let your rulers think like babes.' Ha! Tell me about it."

"If you are one of those fluffy ducks who is afraid of women, God would be called a liar because the women were virgins but their husbands told them to say that."

I don't know why I posted these. Probably because he called himself a "teacher." I call him a "mental transient."
