(32,787 posts)It's the same Jerry Falwell Jr. story, with all the tweets collected together.
I'd say it's shocking, but I'm not surprised. So much phony, self-serving posing going on in those "Christian" groups.

(6,697 posts)American Christiandom is rotted to the core. When preachers are backing rapist, thieves and liars for high office and calling decent honest hard working charitable people who keep their vow "evil", well there's not much hope at that point.
