Quotes from Falwell
“Billy Graham is the chief servant of Satan in America”


“Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them”




“I had a student ask me, "Could the savior you believe in save Osama bin Laden?" Of course, we know the blood of Jesus Christ can save him, and then he must be executed”



“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”


.


“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”


“Textbooks are Soviet propaganda”



“The ACLU is to Christians what the American Nazi party is to Jews”




“It appears that America's anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men's movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening”


The whole (global warming) thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability”




I“We visit prisoners on death row, and some of them are saved, but we believe their sentences should be carried out because they have a debt to society”



“Homosexuality is Satan's diabolical attack upon the family that will not only have a corrupting influence upon our next generation, but it will also bring down the wrath of God upon America.”



“I believe that the people of Israel are the chosen people of God”




“I do not believe we can blame genetics for adultery, homosexuality, dishonesty and other character flaws”



“God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve”



“I sincerely believe that the collective efforts of many secularists during the past generation, resulting in the expulsion from our schools and from the public square, has left us vulnerable”



"...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."”


Jerry Falwell quote


brute beasts...part of a vile and satanic system will be utterly annihilated, and there will be a celebration in heaven.”




“There's been a concerted effort to steal Christmas.”


“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 have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.'”




“Can you imagine the insolence of these protesters? ... They have the audacity to disparage and demean these courageous soldiers who are enduring great physical and emotional trauma because they believed in the effort to bring freedom to Iraq.”




“The media have a widely-held agenda (that doesn't include support of President Bush) and they are not about to tarnish the image of anti-war protesters by showing them for what they actually are, ... With this tyrannical approach to the news, it's really no wonder so many Americans don't take the networks seriously anymore. And it's no wonder that conservative Internet news sites have grown by leaps and bounds.”




“Pat ran for president once and he's a very political person, and that is the way politicians talk. They all use intimidation and political strong-arming to hopefully pick up a vote or two.”




“It could have gone either way, right to the last minute of the game. I think the players took something very positive from that game, that if they play up to their potential, they can be a competitive squad.”



“Joseph Farah raises a clarion call to action in his new book, 'Taking America Back.' He hits the nail on the head on every issue. What's more, he lays the blame for America's problems right where it belongs ? in the lap of liberalism. His insightful analysis of what he calls 'this evil ideology' is worth the price of the book. Don't miss it!”


“A mighty oak has fallen in God's forest.”




“He began the theological and spiritual renaissance that brought the largest Protestant denomination back to its original roots and commitment to the Bible,”



“I'm sure the coaches and players were demoralized from those three shutouts, ... I think they're on the comeback and the last few years, they had a strong finish and I would not be surprised if we see that again.”



“What we've worked on for 30 years, to mobilize people of faith and value in this country, what we've done through these years is coming to culmination right now.”

3. K & R. Thank you for these, Brettdale. They speak VOLUMES.
I don't need to add my two cents to the other threads
when he so ELOQUENTLY speaks his own squirming mind.

4. Is the use of the term "public square" with respect to ten commandments etc. almost exclusively some
kind of wingnut fundie terminology? It seems like I only see it used in this context, by these folks.
