Falwell Obit

Jerry Falwell, Architect of Religious Right, Dies at 73

David Mark and Adelle M. Banks author this week's full-text article (linked above), an obituary for Jerry Falwell.

Quote:

For many, Falwell represented the public face of evangelical Protestantism, particularly its involvement in politics. Falwell founded the Moral Majority in 1979 to lobby politicians to "reverse the politicization of immorality in our society," he said at the time.
