When the news first became public, via lying for Jesus Jerry Falwell announced that his wife's affair had a significant emotional toll on him as though he had not been a part of the affair.
Then we learn that Jerry had been a part of the affair.
It does not surprise me anymore that religious people tend to be morally bankrupt hypocrites.

Quote:Last night, the Washington Examiner published an exclusive 1,200-word statement from Falwell explaining that his wife, Becki, had an "inappropriate personal relationship" with "an ambitious young man" the couple met at their hotel on a vacation eight years ago. Those who've been following the saga over the past few years can fill in the blanks — previous reporting by Politico, the Miami Herald, and other outlets revealed that the Falwells met 20-year-old pool boy Giancarlo Granda at the Fontainebleau in Miami Beach and later purchased an Alton Road hostel with Granda for $4.6 million in 2013.
This afternoon, Granda went public with his own exclusive, sharing details about the relationship in a Reuters report. Granda told Reuters correspondent Aram Roston that from 2012 to 2018, he had sex with Becki Falwell "multiple times per year" while Jerry Falwell watched. Those encounters took place at hotels in Miami, as well as in New York and at the Falwells' home in Virginia, according to Granda.
Falwell sought to characterize the affair as something between Granda and his wife. He wrote in the statement to the Examiner that "Becki had an inappropriate personal relationship with this person, something in which I was not involved."
But previous reporting on the couple's relationship with Granda portrayed the Falwells on friendly terms with the pool boy for a period of years, suggesting there was more to the story.
It does not surprise me anymore that religious people tend to be morally bankrupt hypocrites.
