As a minister of the Gospel, Falwell is called to speak God's truth to a unbelieving world. You may not want to believe that disease (AIDS) is a result of man's sinful condition, but clearly Falwell does and is compelled to remind the world of this. >Anyone that disagrees with >Falwell is attacked as being an immoral anti-american.

I have never heard Falwell attach anyone as anti-american simply because they disagree. Indeed, Ted Kennedy was received rather warmly at Liberty Baptist College when he was there to speak. Kennedy and Falwell certainly disagree politically, but I don't think he would consider the Senator anti-american. You've been reading too much of what the liberal press says Falwell believes rather than listening to what he really says. -- / / / Tom Albrecht Burroughs Corp. ===/ / /=== ...{presby|psuvax1|sdcrdcf}!burdvax!bnapl ===/ / /=== ===/ / /=== / / / "We apologize for the inconvenience"
