Jerry Falwell and S. Africa
- Share via
If Jerry Falwell claims to speak for most of America’s conservative Christians as the name of his group “Moral Majority” implies, then it is he who stands atop a platform of “phonies,” not Bishop Tutu. I’m white, Christian and conservative, and while I will not go so far as to boycott or ask others to divest themselves of their investments in companies who do business or have factories in South Africa, I certainly will not go out and spend my hard-earned dollars to buy Krugerrands to militarily prop up a government whose constitution and government are so diametrically opposed to mine.
