Posted by on May 23, 2007 02:47 PMWell, guess that rules out Jerry Falwell (gluttony), that evangelist from the Springs who was "getting a massage" from the gay prostitute, and the vast majority of televangelists (swindlers), a fair number of Catholic priests and ..well.. maybe Jay and Dianne will be the only ones there!

Posted by FYK on May 23, 2007 03:20 PM“In religion, what damned error but some sober brow will bless it, and approve it with a text, Methinks sometimes I have no more wit than a Christian. His worst fault is, he's given to prayer; he is something peevish that way. We are such stuff as dreams are made of, and our little life is rounded with a sleep. Modest doubt is call'd the beacon of the wise.” William Shakespeare
The Moyers must live their life so as to remain sheep Jn.10 and not goats: Sheep go to heaven.
God is the only Being who does not have to exist in order to reign. Charles Baudelaire
If there is a God, and if he really based his religion around Jesus Christ, there is no chance at all that Fallwell is in heaven.
In fact, I'm so personally disgusted with the idea that Fallwell might not suffer eternal damnation for his actions on this planet that I have been trying out Christianity to see if I can fool myself into believing that he will get what he sorely deserves.
I would rather have seen Fallwell get ass cancer like Tony Snow so I could at least be assured he would suffer a little before he kicked the big fat sleazy bucket.

Posted by Dan on May 23, 2007 05:08 PMYou guys are all missing the point -you don't realize how cool Christianity is! Basically you can do what you want all your life -lie, steal, commit gluttony, rape, pillage, eat meat on Friday, etc - but all you have to do is ask Jesus for FORGIVENESS on your deathbed & YOU"RE IN HEAVEN - it's as simple as that.
So don't worry about it - just become a Christian right before you die & it really doesn't matter that you make Charlie Manson look like a boy scout. Or that you tempted that poor Catholic priest when you were an altar boy!
Posted by Drew on May 23, 2007 05:20 PMTo Drew: LMAO!!! Good one... so true.
Posted by Dan on May 23, 2007 05:54 PMDear Moyers.
camel, needle, eye, rich, heaven
Fill in the missing bits and let me know who goes to heaven.

ALL OF YOU!
Posted by Fresh on May 23, 2007 06:42 PMThe word homosexual does not appear in 1 Corinthians or anywhere else in the Bible because the word did not exist until the 19th Century. In fact, it's neither accurate nor honest to offer any contemporary English translation and claim "the Bible is very clear..."
Just the same, if heaven is where the pious charlatans and hypocritical demagogues like J. Falwell end up, make me reservations for Vegas. It's amazing that any Christians would still defend this man who made a joke out of their religion in exchange for political power, although I guess true Christianity involves forgiving him for doing so.
Posted by Hans Christian Brando on May 23, 2007 06:45 PMI've always wondered why those aggressive "fundamentalist chistian" missionaries who are so eager to mind my business for me, and "save my soul" in the bargain, have never given a thought to the simple fact that, fhe grimmest possible picture of hell ever painted is the one of having to spend an eternity in THEIR company.

Posted by Charles B on May 23, 2007 07:50 PMDearest Miss/Mrs/Master/Mr. Fresh,
I am indeed pitiful and pathetic, please send money and nekkid girls to save me.
On the help side, I get a little from my friends, so that's ok.
Posted by Bingo Skunk on May 23, 2007 08:48 PMPro and Con, your all missing the point. Believe what you will in private. Live what you believe in public.

"Believe what you will in private. Live what you believe in public."
O. K. But then - since it is an old principle of life that Nature abhors a vacuum - what would the Je$u$ Bu$ine$$ do without a new crop of Elmer Gantrys, and such like entrepreneurs, to take over its franchises?

You said Quote the bible to your hearts content. Falwell is worm dirt.
Falwell's body is worm dirt. His Spirit is with His Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
You on the other hand, with no payment for your sin, will become worm dirt one day and your Spirit will spend eternity with the rest of the unbelievers of this world.

Posted by Sharon B. on May 25, 2007 03:55 AMSharon B: You are terrific. Shaupeen falls into the same category: 10,000 mourning the Fruit's death with women in attendance. I can understand the ignorant prostrating themselves for the fruit of the tree and the fruit prostrating himself for the fruit of the Virgin as a result of David (of his loins) penetration or the result of spontaneous combustion; however, when the intelligent seek dalliance with a Jew that goad Falwell type characters into existence I go bonkers.
Allsop was indignant that a mummery of an outworn creed (a church service) would be imposed to recognize a man who had fought hard to free fellow humans from the degradation of superstition. Seeing there are no signs nor fruit of religion but in man only, there is no cause to doubt but that the seed of religion is also only in man. They that approve a private opinion call it opinion; but they that mislike it, heresy; and yet heresy signifies no more than private opinion. Falwell was fond of turning other’s opinion into heresy and was surely a reincarnation of the Church’s grand Inquisitionist who loved disrobing women and poking them with prickers (sharp pliar like scissors for excising) in search of devil sign.
