Farewell to Falwell
Knowing what to say — or generally more wisely what not to say — when someone you detest (in the role of a public figure) dies can be a tough call. Jerry Falwell may well have been a fine fellow in his private life — I don’t claim to know. But as a public figure his impact on the world was negative without mitigation. I have nothing good to say about the man. His was the theology of hate and division — an awful thing under any circumstance — but especially bad when its author slanders Jesus Christ in the process.
I don’t cheer his passing, though, not even in my private thoughts. To be honest, by his later years he had become such an absurd figure that he was useful to the left as an attack point: liberals in no way benefit politically from his passing.
What do I wish for this now departed merchant of hate?
Here’s something I wrote relevant to the subject back when he was still very much alive:
Like Asimov, I tend to doubt there’s an afterlife. But since I once doubted that the American people would elect a second-rate-washed-up-half-senile cowboy actor as President of the United States (let alone later spend an entire week deifying him after his death), plainly, I’m not infallible. So hopefully I’m wrong on this one, too. I’d love for there to be a heaven, if for no other reason than it would be great fun to be able to walk up to guys like Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson and say, “See, asshole, people like me made it up here, too, and, oh, by the way, they let me keep my ACLU card.”
So if consciousness does live on in some fashion beyond the grave this is what I wish for Jerry Falwell: a chance to know wisdom.
