TF:

You claimed Falwell was like Bin Laden.

Yes, I did. Here is the exact quote, from that post:

"In seriousness, though, I personally regard a guy like him in the exact same category as I do Bin Laden, the key determinant being fundamentalism, regardless of the religious strain it infests."

Do you honestly think Falwell would plan, support, or participate in an attack like those on 9/11? I don't think he would.

Nah, you're right - I doubt that he would plan or participate in such, but as for support...I don't know. Against those who disagree with his philosophies, I'd guess that it might be a toss-up. I've never met him either, but his comments re: the U.S. essentially deserving what we got on 9/11 aren't terribly far from that, are they?
