Hitler or Falwell!
Friends, before the iron grows too cold, I'd like to play a little game called Hitler or Falwell! This is a simple game of Godwinism, in which I present a quote and YOU guess who said it! Let's begin, shall we?

or


1. My feelings as a Christian point me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter.

Easy, right? Let's continue!

2. This 'turn the other cheek' business is all well and good but it's not what Jesus fought and died for.

3. Secular schools can never be tolerated because such a school has no religious instruction and a general moral instruction without a religious foundation is built on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith.... We need believing people.

4. I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be!

5. Universal education is the most corroding and disintegrating poison that liberalism has ever invented for its own destruction.

6. We were convinced that the people needs and requires this faith. We have therefore undertaken the fight against the atheistic movement, and that not merely with a few theoretical declarations: we have stamped it out.

7. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit … We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press. . .we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess.

8. This the national government will regard its first and foremost duty to restore the unity of spirit and purpose of our people. It will preserve and defend the foundations upon which the power of our nation rests. It will take Christianity, as the basis of our collective morality, and the family as the nucleus of our people and state, under its firm protection....May God Almighty take our work into his grace, give true form to our will, bless our insight, and endow us with the trust of our people.

9. Remain strong in your faith, as you were in former years. In this faith, in its close-knit unity our people to-day goes straight forward on its way and no power on earth will avail to stop it.

10. We're fighting against humanism, we're fighting against liberalism ... we are fighting against all the systems of Satan that are destroying our nation today .

Hitler or Falwell answer key below! How many did YOU get right?

I'm sorry, but I honestly find this to be in very poor taste. The man is dead. We may have had our disagreements with him, but he's dead and I think we can afford one moment of empathy. My deepest condolences to the Hitler family.

I am deeply offended by this. Jerry Falwell was a good man who helped a lot of people find happiness in Christ. He never hurt anyone, and you compare him to Hitler?! How dare you!

Lets all join in a moment of silence and rejoice in the fact that Falwell didn't live to see that day!

If George Carlin says "Fuck the children," I'm starting to think a similar phrase must be coined by those more well versed in the tasty sound-byte with regard to the dead who've managed to waste their lives trying to destroy those of others.

Fuck Falwell.

I suppose it speaks to my great historical ignorance that I would have attributed all of those quotes to Falwell myself... Ah well, if nothing else, I was giving him a little too much credit for being not only articulate, but maybe having some sort of social manner that would appeal to someone not raised in a barn.

Sour grapes? Nah, I leave those for the communion wine. ¬_¬

As a Christian I find Falwell's statements and actions appalling. As an American I find his attempts to ignore the Constitution offensive. I'm still waiting for someone to show me where Jesus told us to try to politically dominate our nation of choice.

Your game leaves the suggestion that Hitler was a Christian. Maybe that wasn't your intent, but it should be said that Hitler was not a Christian by any stretch of the imagination, he completely rejected it.
