I thought Jebus loved Liberty University
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,518411,00.html
<snip>
An assistant professor at Liberty University in Virginia has died after being hit by a baseball at a neighboring college athletic field.

An official says Jeff Taylor Sr. was struck in the lower jaw or neck by a line drive while pitching to a baseball player at nearby Lynchburg College.
Liberty Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. says the school has lost a "great professor." Both schools are in Lynchburg.

1. That guy had family and friends who cared about him
If you were one of those family members would you want someone making a cheap joke just because they didn't like the school's founder?

3. +1
Not everyone who attends or works at Libery is a Falwell wanna be. Some are genuinely decent people.

2. The "neighboring college athletic field" must have been less Jesus'y

4. Act Of God, Don'tcha Know...
This is a sad sad story...no matter where this happened or whom it happened to.

But as long as you bring up Liberty and the all mighty...

I worked at a radio station that would always get knocked off the air due to thunderstorms. Advertisers would want their money back...then the owner found Jebus...claimed that the outages were an "act of god"...the calls went away. :rofl:

I've always wondered, if god is on your team's side, when you lose, does that mean he thinks you're crap? :rofl:

5. The saddest part is that his son was on the field
but the dead Falwell always claimed that god was on their side and attributed godly reasons for natural phenomena.
