As long as the organized Protestant Church-as-an-entity is content to allow Falwell and Robertson to posture themselves as representatives of the church, the church itself is complicit in their bigotry and mania.

Many took *'s refusal to condemn the Swift Boat Veterans was as his implicit endorsement of their lies and slander; the same is true, unfortunately, in this case. If no statement by Falwell or Robertson is so egregious as to result in a formal rebuke by the church, then one can be forgiven for inferring that the church doesn't find such statements to be objectionable.

I’m sorry that millions of good Protestants are misrepresented by these two insane zealots, but they’re still insane zealots, and the church should formally identify them as such.
