A power crazy bigot. Did alot more harm than good.
And I do not dislike evangelical ministers in general. I am a huge admirer of Billy Graham, but Falwell was a demagogue.

Falwell was a pompous a##. He was a purveyor of hate and discontent and I was always amazed that people followed him.
One of the answers before mine said "he is in heaven". Hey, I'm an Agnostic and do not believe in heaven or hell. But I am aware of Christian biblical content and, according to what I can remember from that, there is no way that Falwell could possibly be in hell.

The parallel fails on one significant factor. Wright is racially obsessed and the others are actually not. that's the racial understanding and divisiveness that's the issue. Seeing secularist western civilization usually and American custom especially as debased and misplaced isn't any fault and to be inspired. it isn't any diverse than the prophets lamenting immorality, Jesus attacking the Jewish custom of his day, Socrates attacking the Athenian custom, Livy or Augustine attacking the Roman custom, and Luther attacking the corruption of the Church in 1517. in addition to, you will see comparable statements on the Huffington submit or the different leftist weblog, although from a diverse attitude and reason. healthful complaint of a debauched and immoral custom isn't in straightforward terms with good precedent yet needed, yet a divisiveness in accordance with racial understanding is silly, puerlile, and ignorant.

Falwell is a bigot living off the fear and prejudice he panders to the lonely and scared.

A glutton. A liar. A malicious deviant who preys on the fears of the uneducated. A faker and an abomination spiritually speaking. And probably, although it is a guess on my part, a sex freak. One thing I know, he is greedy and he is cruel, and he definitely does not speak for God. Or should I say, he never did speak for God. He may be gone, but his hate lives on...

Jeremiah 6:13 (NIV) "From the least to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; prophets and priests alike, all practice deceit."

He is dead; this is good thing.
One less humanity-hating hypocrite for me to share my air with.

IMO, he was obnoxious, he was a blowhard, he could be abrasive at times.
But people who knew him well (including Larry Flynt, believe it or not) had very nice things to say about him.
