Question: Was there a red Cadillac with big tail fins?

Answer: No-It was a Volkswagen with 2 flat tires.

If you read the explanation it probably was innocent. It’s his wife’s pregnant assistant, a costume party, and his wife or her husband probably took the picture.

A generation of low brow and gross out comedy has led to the loss of a sense of personal dignity that used to be a mark of responsible adulthood. Fundamental cultural norms though cannot be flouted indefinitely and tend to be reasserted in inconvenient ways. Jerry Falwell, Jr. now offers an instructive example that may become a spur toward the renewal of American culture.

there is nothing good or spiritually healthy about the whole event. Christians becoming more worldly never ends well.

It’s a mistake but maybe nothing at all was going on with that woman.

Fallwell’s lapse was not so much a sin as a making light of sin by mocking those who embrace it.

Falwell jr was a warrior coming out and supporting Trump in 2016. I hope he overcomes this.

Living off fleeced money, holier-than-thou hypocrite. Pathetic, but expected of the for-profit preacher dynasties.

"I’m going to be a good boy from here on out … it was just good fun, that’s it.”

This is his problem. He's not a boy he is a 58 year old husband and father of three grown children plus the President of a Christian University. He should step down permanently and let a grown up lead the University.

Juvenile behaviour considering his position.

The impact of his action will only cause profound embarrassment and regret not to mention fodder for the comedy circuit.

Ephesians 5:3

3But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed. 4Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character,

He chose poorly. Not judging. Not condemning. Just saying.

Nothing to see there, despite how far down his zipper was.

It doesn't matter that it was innocent. What matters is this picture will hound him the rest of his life, his enemies will use it against him, and it shows clear lack of judgment.

It's a senseless, self-inflicted wound.

Come on.....that was in really bad taste. Poor judgement even if it was intended to be humorous. Frankly ‘the actions’ aren’t something I’d expect to be seen coming from Liberty’s Leader.
