This country was founded on the principle of seperation of church and state and the freedom of religion, speech and several other key ideals.
When John Kennedy was running for President he was grilled by the Democrats and GOP on his catholicism and how that would affect his running the country and he reaffirmed that the idea of seperation of church and state would not be affected in anyway.
Falwell has dragged this country into a quagmire of the religious right trying to interject thier beliefs as the countrys only righteous policy and in doing so has helped divide this country in more ways than it has ever been since the slavery issue and brought us to where we are today with the Bush presidency and his total mismanagement of the Federal Govt and world affirs based on religious beliefs rather than diplomacy and the word and law of the constitution.
Good riddance Mr. Falwell.
