when I was in the shelter, I talked to a young woman who went to Liberty College. She said that most students loved Falwell, but ignored his message...and on the heels of that comment, she claimed that the college was a party school. Sheeeeeeze

I guess it depends on what you consider a party. I'm sure for some of those people drinking a beer and maybe a shot and dancing to old 50's tunes would constitute a raging party.
Nope, Baldimo, she was too young for that stuff. She was straight and honest. Would you believe that she even smoked a ciggie with me? My word. What are young people coming to.
Jerry Falwell is given more attention by this forum than his distorted views deserve.
Williamhenry. Where have you been? Welcome back, my friend.
And even farther to the right from Falwell: Bob Jones.

Radical cleric Bob Jones' letter to President Bush ...
Dear Mr. President:
The media tells us that you have received the largest number of popular votes of any president in America's history. Congratulations!
In your re-election, God has graciously granted America?-though she doesn't deserve it?-a reprieve from the agenda of paganism. You have been given a mandate. We the people expect your voice to be like the clear and certain sound of a trumpet. Because you seek the Lord daily, we who know the Lord will follow that kind of voice eagerly.
Don't equivocate. Put your agenda on the front burner and let it boil. You owe the liberals nothing. They despise you because they despise your Christ. Honor the Lord, and He will honor you.
Had your opponent won, I would have still given thanks, because the Bible says I must (I Thessalonians 5:18). It would have been hard, but because the Lord lifts up whom He will and pulls down whom He will, I would have done it. It is easy to rejoice today, because Christ has allowed you to be His servant in this nation for another presidential term. Undoubtedly, you will have opportunity to appoint many conservative judges and exercise forceful leadership with the Congress in passing legislation that is defined by biblical norm regarding the family, sexuality, sanctity of life, religious freedom, freedom of speech, and limited government. You have four years?-a brief time only?-to leave an imprint for righteousness upon this nation that brings with it the blessings of Almighty God.
Christ said, "If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my father honour" (John 12:26).
The student body, faculty, and staff at Bob Jones University commit ourselves to pray for you?-that you would do right and honor the Savior. Pull out all the stops and make a difference. If you have weaklings around you who do not share your biblical values, shed yourself of them. Conservative Americans would love to see one president who doesn't care whether he is liked, but cares infinitely that he does right.
Best wishes.
Sincerely your friend,
Bob Jones III
President
Now THAT is scary stuff. 'They hate your Christ?'
