The irony about the evangelical right, before Farthell, was that they were for strict separation of church and state prior.

Nuff said.
To be fair, the city was named for its founder, James Lynch, who freed the slaves he inherited from his father, and was a staunch abolitionist.
The term ‘lynching’ is thought to be derived from his brother Charles, a judge and American revolutionary, who was known to have ordered British loyalists hanged after a perfunctory trial.

The name of the city has nothing to do with Falwell Sr and how he used his dad's bootlegging money to start a degree mill.
And nowhere in thin this thread was I implying the name of the city had to do with the lynching of blacks.
If the Falwell family gave a fuck about what you are claiming in this quote, Jerry The Badyear Blimp would not have turned out the way he did.
Just like the name "Richard" does not mean everyone who holds it is a "Dick".
Trust me, I lived in that city for over 10 years. Outside that family, everyone hates them, and the students who do attend his college only go there because it is cheap.
