<< Robert, get up to speed. Falwell started apologizing the day after he made those remarks six days ago and hasn't stopped yet. Robertson started back peddling practically before the cameras shut down. >>

So, is that alright with you? Those were message of hate, who's purpose seemed meant to divide us. Do we need to turn American against American because of differences in life style or politics, during this evil, demented attack against American civilians? Did you agree with their messages at the time they were given, also?

===> Falwell was unrepentant, saying in an interview that he was "making a theological statement, not a legal statement."

"I put all the blame legally and morally on the actions of the terrorist," he said. But he said America's "secular and anti-Christian environment left us open to our Lord's [decision] not to protect. When a nation deserts God and expels God from the culture . . . the result is not good."

Robertson was not available for comment, a spokeswoman said. But she released a statement echoing the remarks he made on his show. An ACLU spokeswoman said the group "will not dignify the Falwell-Robertson remarks with a comment."
