And to be honest I don't care if Falwell likes being a cuck, what he and his wife and any other consenting adults get up to in the privacy of their own bedroom is entirely up to them.

He probably shouldn't be running a University which forces its students to abide by this though:

"Sexual relations outside of a biblically-ordained marriage between a natural-born man and a natural-born woman are not permissible at Liberty University. In personal relationships, students are encouraged to know and abide by common-sense guidelines to avoid the appearance of impropriety. Activities inconsistent with these standards and guidelines are violations of the Online Student Honor Code."

of the RW have always had 2 codes. One for the flock and one for themselves...the flock adheres, usually, and the flock's leaders do not, mostly.

It now seems possible Falwell posted this photo on purpose to distract from the revelations he knew were coming.

Falwell's brand of Christianity is more likely to forgive certain forms of adultery than others.

That being said, if she did so willingly, I certainly would not fault her for wanting to be with another man after being married to that cretin.
