Re: Madamfauntleroy

You still have not answered my question although I think your question has been answered at several levels by many thoughtful posters.
I would like to know if you were as incensed when Falwell and Robertson blamed 9/11 on homosexuals, feminists, and atheists? What did you do about it? I'd just like to know so we can all collectively rid this land of all over the top demagoguery, starting with Wright, Robertson and others.
First off, I am neither a member of their congregation nor do I solicit their adivce or employ them in any fashion. So Madam It's quite easy for me to say they are morally repugnant. I am what some would call a lapsed Catholic. I have alomst weekly arguments with me wife in regards to the failings of the Catholic church but I still don't have the Pope on retainer. The only thoughtful response to my question so far was from Deloresflower. The problem is that I'm not asking about the social ills from our past that lead Black folks to believe these ridiculous conspiracies from the likes of Wright and Farrakan. I'm asking why it took so long for s seemingly intelligent person to denounce these ridiculous comments. Do you think he truly does not agree with Pastor Wright or was this done for political expediency.
