FALWELL V. HITCHENS

Rev. Jerry Falwell:

In a recent Wall Street Journal article titled, "Why I'm Rooting Against the Religious Right," [Christopher] Hitchens defines the conservative Christian faction as a "creeping and creepy movement" that is "trying to force government leaders into following their position 100 percent."

That is certainly a simplistic – and wildly exaggerated – way to define the efforts of religious conservatives who want to preserve their rapidly disappearing rights in this great land.(italics added)


Strangely, Falwell does not enumerate any of these rapidly disappearing rights.
