You continue to lie, smear, and spread innuendo. Falwell said God allowed 9/11 to happen because of gays. That is assigning blame to God for trying to alert the country to this Biblically incorrect behaviour.

"Falwell was convicted of fraud for issuing unsecured "church bonds", He was "charged", not convicted! "In 1972, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launched an investigation of bonds issued by Falwell's organizations. The SEC charged Falwell's church with "fraud and deceit" in the issuance of $6.5 million in unsecured church bonds.[26] The church won* a 1973 federal court case prosecuted at the behest of the SEC, in which the Court exonerated the Church and ruled that there had been no intentional wrong-doing.*"
