BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Atheist Jerry Falwell quotes

lmao now that is funny texasdave.... i mean jesusfreak. let's see....what he said after the 9/11 attacks was bigoted and hateful.

What he said was that our secularized worldview contributed to the reasoning behind the terrorists motives. These terrorists are always talking about the immorality of our culture. We Christians agree with that assessment, we disagree with the methodology of changing it. Mr. Falwell hit the nail on the head. His timing was just too soon. People were too angry to hear that. Nothing hateful or bigoted there. Just raw truth.

I don't think you speak for all Christians, dear.

Just a small sampling...

If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being.
-- Jerry Falwell

AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals.
-- Jerry Falwell

The Bible is the inerrant ... word of the living God. It is absolutely infallible,without error in all matters pertaining to faith and practice, as well as in areas such as geography, science, history, etc.
-- Jerry Falwell, Finding Inner Peace and Strength

The Jews are returning to their land of unbelief. They are spiritually blind and desperately in need of their Messiah and Savior.
-- Jerry Falwell, Listen, America!

We're fighting against humanism, we're fighting against liberalism ... we are fighting against all the systems of Satan that are destroying our nation today ... our battle is with Satan himself.
-- Jerry Falwell

AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals. To oppose it would be like an Israelite jumping in the Red Sea to save one of Pharoah's chariotters.
-- Jerry Falwell

Blacks, Hispanics, women, etc., are God-ordained minorities who do indeed deserve minority status.
-- Rev Jerry Falwell, USA Today Chat, quoted from The Religious Freedom Coalition, "The Two faces of Jerry Falwell"

People, please. Trying to use logic on a freak like jfreak, is a waste of your time and energy. It is a bit like pouring perfume on a pig. This fool was jcfreak a week ago, now jesusfreak. What will be his next reincarnation? As if we care.

You must have had your ears stopped up and your eyes closed, then.

Did you not even read the quotes on the first page? Blaming homosexuals for the downfall of America is both bigoted and hateful. When someone says something like that, people start to suspect that he thinks the punishment proposed in Leviticus 20:13 might be a reasonable course of action.



You're probably right. But willful ignorance doesn't bother me nearly as bad when I at least make an effort to shed some light on the situation. (Besides, for some reason I didn't see the second page of posted messages until after I posted this one! )

jesusfreak can't see the hatred in those comments because he agrees with them.

Patience.

AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals.

Little did Jerry know that AIDS is NOT a punishment from God. Pope John Paul conspired with a scientist to create the disease to punish the homosexuals. There is a book called "Behold! The Pale Horse" and the author escapes me but if you look for it on Amazon or something, the cover has an angel wielding a sword on a winged horse. There are other government conspiracies in the book as well and has actual government documentation in the back of it. Check it out if you can.

The idea that religion and politics don't mix was invented by the Devil to keep Christians from running their own country.
-- Rev Jerry Falwell, Sermon, July 4, 1976

Christians have been running this country since Washington so I don't know what he was talking about there.

It appears that America's anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men's movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening.
-- Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

Why can't there be a Christ centered women's movement?

Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them.
-- Jerry Falwell, on CNN's Crossfire, May 17, 1997

What??

The ACLU is to Christians what the American Nazi party is to Jews.
-- Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

Again...What??

I never cared much for him anyway. Him or Pat Robertson.
I believe their agenda wasn't spreading God's word. I believe their agenda was collecting money and becoming wealthy. I hope I am wrong but I don't think I am.

What do you think?

All disease and death is a consequence of corporate sin. Death and disease did not exist until the fall of mankind. AIDS is a consequence of homosexual behavior. It is not a curse from God but a curse from sin. All behavior outside of the will of God has the curse of sin upon it. Like jumping off a building has the curse of smacking the ground. There are spiritual laws just as there are physical ones. What Mr. Falwell said has a large amount of truth to it. The Bible IS the inerrant Word of the living God. That is absolute truth without distortion. He was right-on about that.
podlady,
jcfreak stands for Jesus Christ freak. I just simplified and clarified it.
As for Mr. Falwell, he was a fallible man. A Godly man to be sure but not perfect like our Lord and King Jesus Christ, praise and glory to His name, Amen.

AIDS is a man made creation. Pope John Paul created it with the help of a scientist. No, I take that back. AIDS is the result of the HIV that was created by the Pope.
