(I was glad to see that I'd kept my Jerry Falwell in drag image up.)

I know I'm supposed to be temperate in my feelings about Falwell's death.  And, sure, I feel horrible for his family, friends, and close ones.  The humanist in me hopes he didn't suffer. 

But there's another part of me that wishes I believed in Hell so that I could imagine Jerry's face as St. Peter steers him Southward.  (Now there's a great reveal shot, filmmakers!)

Maybe that's how they plan to convert atheists.  Make us wish for a Hell so we can see the worst of the Bible Thumpers get pitched into it.  Perhaps they're just making the ultimate sacrifice -- saving heathens' souls at their own expense. 

What Would Jesus Do, indeed....
