Let's let Rev. Falwell speak in his own words, shall we?
“Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions”
“AIDS is not just God’s punishment for homosexuals; it is God’s punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals”
“Billy Graham is the chief servant of Satan in America”
“The idea that religion and politics don’t mix was invented by the Devil to keep Christians from running their own country”
“If you’re not a born-again Christian, you’re a failure as a human being”
“The ACLU is to Christians what the American Nazi party is to Jews”
“God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve”
“(re: 9/11 attacks) “...throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools, the abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked and when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad…I really believe that the pagans and the abortionists and the feminists and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who try to secularize America…I point the thing in their face and say you helped this happen.””
“[homosexuals are] brute beasts…part of a vile and satanic system [that] will be utterly annihilated, and there will be a celebration in heaven.”
“I think the Moslem faith teaches hate.”
I myself don't think a rigid adherence to one's principles/idealogy is necessarily a character asset- one could say that about Hitler, too, after all. And the current feller in the White House. He's doing a heck of a job, isn't he?
