"[L]et a crown be placed thereon, by which the world may know, that so far as we approve of monarchy, that in America the law is king. For as in absolute governments the King is law, so in free countries the law ought to be king; and there ought to be no other." --Thomas Paine, 1776

Never had much regard for Falwell, or for that matter, his nemesis of Hustler fame, Flynt. It is worthy of note that after the supreme court landmark case (oops, I didn't capitalize supreme) these two strange bedfellows of politics became chums.
Still they remained, each one, at his end of the idiot spectrum. Falwell was however at least as good a thinker and speaker as William Jennings Bryan.
Although Falwell did not believe in evolution and took the Bible to be the literal and unalterable word of God, he had been heard to say the Religious Right had evolved. Go figure.
Who says two wrongs can't make a right?
