1. I have that same feeling
When you have all of the evils of the world being laid at your door by a person like this, just because your gay, I have no feeling for this person whatsoever.

2. Has fallwell or robertson ever done anything uplifting
to the human condition? My take on them is that thier main purpose is to con old people on fixed incomes into sending donations that they then spend on lavish buildings and furnishings at their estates/headquarters.

3. Me neither
but then I am one of those "feminist, fornicator, adulterer, gay" New Yorkers who caused 9/11.

4. Fawell once knelt and prayed with a gay man.
It's not huge, but it was against type...

That's it. In one instance he wasn't as falwellish as he could have been.

5. Was that with Mel White?
Mel is the former speech-writer for Falwell who came out and wrote the book "Stranger at the Gate." He is now head of the group Soulforce which has met with Falwell on a couple of occasions to try to get him to tone down the anti-gay rhetoric.

8. Yeah, I don't remember.
All I remember is that Falwell would stand next to the guy on TV and pray with him. That's it.
