(7,570 posts)My wife and I attended the services at the Crystal Cathedral when we lived in the area, precisely because it avoided the fire and brimstone approach and steered away from the overt larceny and intolerance of the Jerry Falwells, Robert Tiltons, etc., who were also very popular at the time. We never felt any pressure to give the organization any money (we didn't have it, anyway), and the positive messages Schuller delivered were helpful to us in a tough time.
I think he actually experienced some dementia as he got older. He began behaving very differentlly from what I remembered. His children, unfortunately, appear to be idiots and never had the right stuff to carry on.
So I, for one, am sad about this. Dr. Schuller is dead, while the real enemies of our society continue to live, breathe, play golf on exclusive courses, and appear every Sunday on Meet the Press to promote their evil to the world.
