Flattop,

Why be so hard on the Rev. Falwell? Mostly because he uses his position as a very public figure to do individuals great harm. He is one of the foremost and most visible proponents of intolerance and religious/socio-economic snobbery on the American political scene. As well as being openly proud of his status as an anti-intellectual and what would have been called a "no-nothing" 100 years ago. AND he makes no secret of the fact that he makes a terrifically good living by soliciting large sums of money from those least able to part comfortably part with it. I honestly believe that he is a dangerous man and a threat to informed, diverse thought in the United States.

Sorry, I got all serious and indignant there for a minute. I meant every word of it, but I'll try not to let such outbursts happen too often. ;-)

Bread & roses,
-Sean
