Goodwin's Law

I think Goodwin's law could only truly be invoked if Falwell were to be accused of Hitler like behavior. As presented, I believe it is a valid analogy.

God's judgement of Falwell

God may indeed be judging Jerry, but if God does not relay information of his verdict back to the people of Earth, it is of no value to us - We will learn nothing from the verdict.

As I am not expecting to be hearing from God on this matter, we have no recourse but to make our own judgments.

My judgment is that Jerry Falwell was a bad man.

Fred Phelps at least 5 beers short of a six-pack

Looking at that cite/site, looking at the Fred Phelps Wikipedia page, and looking at various links thereof, my impression is that Fred Phelps is flat out insane. That in not a rational mind in action.
