But he’s an Evangelical, so it’s alright.

You flippin’ perverts.

Empire of the Son

From a golden throne [and private yacht] His Majesty turns out tens of thousands of puritanical minions every year, while controlling billions of $ worth of tax exempt ‘offerings’.

A few thousand of Liberty’s students & alumni petitioned for his removal — not on the basis of his turning away from Jesus, but because his actions would decrease the value of their degrees.

It’s black water, alright.

Poor, poor Jerry Falwell, Jr. Got his hand caught in the cookie jar (OK, it wasn’t his hand and it wasn’t a cookie jar), and now he is on “indefinite leave of absence.” Boo hoo.

Thoughts and prayers, Jerry.

I THOUGHT you were a scumbag and I PRAY you get what you deserve.

HYPOCRITE!

Evangelical conservatives must never again lecture anyone about morality. These phony moralists who wag their fingers in everyone else’s faces and tell everyone else how to live while they violate every command and make up some new ones, have lost all moral authority and have been exposed as the vapid moral hypocrites that they are, lacking any principles whatsoever and trading values for political expediency and hypocrisy on an unimaginable scale.

It is all and only about MONEY and POWER.

No wonder Evangelical voted for evil Trump.

UGH!

Does this mean I won’t be getting my prayer cloth? The last one looked like it was been cut from woman’s underwear. Had those little ‘Hello Kitty’ characters.

No one who excoriates others for their sincerely held beliefs and then blatantly, grossly and hypocritically fl;outs his own should be gathered with others of his moral deficiencies and given their own island (continent?) to negotiate life with their fellows. Let them punish each other.

People that actually pay to study at Liberty University get what they deserve. Is a Liberty degree worth anything at all, besides a chuckle from a prospective employer?

When asked why he did it, he said he wasn’t at Liberty to discuss.

People with imaginary saviors are stupid. There is NO god as they like to hustle.

Zippergate: Falwell has been telling his female parishioners that his zipper is the gate to “Heaven”?

Jerry Falwell Jr has done something I didn’t previously think possible: he’s made his father seem like a reasonable man.

Although I hate defending people I despise, I have to say that personally, I see the famous photo as a cute-but-regrettable gag, not a moral transgression. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/jerry-falwell-unzipped/ Kinda like the photo of Al Franken pretending to be about to grope someone through a flack jacket, for which IMHO Franken was unjustly hounded.

His dad would be sooooooo proud.

To paraphrase Capt. Renault: I’m shocked! Shocked to find that a blowhard holy roller is a slimy hypocrite.
