In my mind, both Falwell and Robertson are made of the same cloth
as were the Pharises of Christ's time. I am not what most would call a
"true Christian", but I have found that applying the teachings of Jesus
vis-a-vis one's fellow men, you rarely do harm. "Judge not..", "Do unto
others..." and "Love thy neighbor", etc.
