Separarion of Church & State? (Jerry Falwell to hold "pro-Bush seminar")
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,128094,00.html



RICHMOND, Va. — Beset by groups questioning his ministry's tax-exempt status for urging President Bush's re-election, the Rev. Jerry Falwell (search) will hold a seminar next month to train conservative pastors "not to be intimidated by left-wing thugs."

Falwell's weekly newsletter invites conservative clergy to a "Politics and the Pulpit" conference Sept. 26-29 at Liberty University in Lynchburg. Falwell is the school's founder and president.

"Because this is an election year and because of the controversy over the right of churches to be involved in moral and social issues, we will have constitutional attorneys there to explain to pastors what they may and may not do," Falwell told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.

The Campaign Legal Center and Americans United for Separation of Church and State (search) have alleged in complaints filed with federal agencies that Falwell improperly engaged in politics by endorsing Bush in a newsletter published on his Web site, falwell.com.

1. "Gluttony" is apparently no longer on the list of 7 Deadly sins...
what a putrid excuse for a man.
I guess "avarice" isn't on there anymore either.
