Roy Batty's Shout Out To Jerry Falwell

Jerry Falwell's June 25 Sermon offered this key passage:

"You know, you almost got to be a homosexual to be recognized in the entertainment industry anymore. Ellen [Degeneres], and all the rest. I love them, pray for their souls, but they're immoral. And the Hollywood scene -- five and eight and 10 marriages -- not something to be emulated."

I guess we need a new chant... "We Great... We Straight... Get Used To It!!!!"

I can agree with him on the five and eight and ten marriages part, but that's it. He's a dangerous loon.

I look forward to Nicol explaining how Falwell is unfairly picked on by the liberal and secular media.

Fat Fuck.

Stella,

No.

All I'll offer is that maybe he can take over all Mike Ovitz's old clients.

C'mon, you wouldn't like to see Falwell managing Steven Spielberg's career!

"Ellen and all the rest." I love it. Like, um....Jim J. Bullock. And, uh, Mario Cantone. And, uh...

And with the magic of cut N paste:

"At last, I understand why I have yet to achieve success out here. It has nothing to do with the fact I haven't written a new script in years - it's because I don't smoke cock.

And here I was thinking just being a regular type sex pervert would get me in...."

(he uses the word pervert elsewhere in the sermon, so please no chastisements for saying all gays are perverts)

Actually, I was waiting for Nicol to start explaining how Falwell is just a misunderstood satirist...

That's hilarious. Cause all those marriages he talks about are just fronts for their true homosexual identities?

lol.

Besides, Ellen had already "made it" before she came out.

And it's not like people in Hollywood haven't been doing the multiple marriage thing for years. People make it sound like it's a new thing.

Love how they ignore that 40+% of first marriages have been ending in divorce all over the nation.

Hollywood is just a reflection of our own flaws and great dreams. To focus on it, instead of fixing the problems in your own home, is a major waste of energy and time.

This is going to come as a tremendous shock to Colin Farrell.

Ya know... people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Even among practicing conservative Christians, the divorce rate is around 40%. And some 10% of all people, regardless of their religious beliefs are born homosexuals, whether they're open about it or not.

Also, I am keenly aware that many good Christians have feet of clay where sexual misdeeds are concerned. Jim Baker? Catholic pedophile priests? Jimmy Swaggart? To name just a few of the "holy" who have failed to live up to Falwell's standards of sexual purity.

There are times when I think Falwell must be a parady... there's no way anyone could take him seriously, surely. He has so many feet sticking out of this mouth, he ought to be a cartoon character.

^^^^Yeah, you almost got to be sexually impure to be recognized in religion anymore. Jim Baker, Jimmy Swaggart, and all the rest, I love them, but they're immoral.

Posted by: palmtree [TypeKey Profile Page] at June 29, 2006 05:01 PM

And the Christian scene...40% divorce rate...not something to be emulated.
