FTFA: Weyrich, who lived in northern Virginia, was one of three founders of the Moral Majority, and later had a hand in creating the Christian Coalition.

The Christiam Coalition is a huge part of what's gone wrong with this country. If they'd practice what Jesus preached, America would be a better place.

Lee Edwards, a Heritage Foundation scholar and a friend, said Weyrich had suffered from ill health in recent years and had both legs amputated.

Diabeetus?

Can't say I cared for the guy, but that's a shiatty way to go...

PoopStain: Going to the store for some popcorn and beer. Death threads are always a wonderful insight into the depravity of Fark.

Never heard of this guy, but I remember the Moral Majority. They were loud, but ultimately they didn't have nearly as much influence as their noise level would suggest.


That specific group spawned a whole lot of others, and collectively they have done tremendous damage to public schooling (which was their goal), funding of scientific research, public health, the judiciary, and elections.

We lost another member of the Religious Reich?

I can't help but notice that the article did not list the actual cause of death.

 
Lionel Mandrake [TotalFark] 2008-12-18 05:26:55 PM  
Saborlas: I can't help but notice that the article did not list the actual cause of death.

Yeah...I can't find shiat. I assumed diabeetus when they mentioned his legs were amputated, but it all seems to have started 12 years ago with an unspecified "spinal injury," and then he "suffered a fall" about 4 years ago that led to the amputations.

Meh...not a big deal, but cause is usually the second or third thing they tell you in an obit piece.

If only death somehow involved consciousness so people like him can see how wrong they are about the whole "kingdom of heaven" thing.

 
AirForceVet [TotalFark] 2008-12-18 06:50:51 PM  
I'm sure the Christian Coalition will find someone to replace him who is equally creative in their bigotry and repressive tactics.

It's not like they really BELIEVE in resurrection, you know.

Death is usually a sad thing. This time it actually makes me happy and I didn't even know the guy or his family.

I feel like a Chilean at the announcement of Pinochet dying.

If you think you need to be a liberal to be happy this guy is dead, you're an idiot. Now if you said there is no hate like like practical hate, you'd be on to something.

I'd piss on this guys grave and laugh.

I really hope you are right. I think christian far right is one of the biggest long-term threats to this nation.

I don't want my children being faced with being dragged back into the dark ages.

If by not posting a snarky comment on fark, I could revive this man, I would not type this:
Hell is just a little warmer.
He's already dead. Nothing I can say or do will change that. If you're going to be a little butt-hurt biatch, go be whiny somewhere else. I'm sure you've never said anything disparaging about someone who has died.
Wait, you're a noob. I'm probably older than you anyway, so STFU.

No, this is where we root for the death of those who want to drag our nation into the 16th century with their science phobia and prayer mania.

That is so true. Christianity is a great religion. It promotes peace, forgiveness, tolerance, and a great many other great morals. But for some stupid reason, Christians in power claim to be acting on Christ's behalf, but act very non-Christian. It makes me wonder if any of these assholes ever read the new testement.

ummm, how could anyone possibly go back to the 16th century without the use of a time machine? If someone wants to time travel, they obviously support science.


LOL, okay, the 16th century in spirit rather than actuality.
