Someone brought this to my attention today also.
Well, Falwell's the guy, of course, who started the whole Moral Majority bullshit that facilitated a breakdown of the separation of church and state in America. His organization was instrumental in procuring the votes from the churchmongers based on the abortion issue to establish Reagan's Daydream Nation. Unfortunately, we still live with the spectre of that legacy today as politicians still cater to these humanoids because of the importance of their voting bloc. And, unfortunately, Falwell's ministry will, no doubt, continue and his successor has already been laid out in his will. If not, then Lynchburg would be in chaos right now as these fuckers killed each other for the power; and you just know they'd be doing the killings in the name of the Lord, no less.
