That appeared to be that. Until Thursday, when Rep. Mark Walker , a Baptist minister and former Liberty instructor, said it was one too many scandals for the embattled president of the nation’s largest Christian university. “Jerry Falwell Jr’s ongoing behavior is appalling,” Walker, the vice chairman of the powerful House Republican Caucus,Walker’s statement marks the strongest rebuke yet by a Republican elected official, even as Falwell, Liberty’s president since 2007, has faced repeated scrutiny over his leadership of the university and his personal choices off-campus.

Appointed president by the school’s founder, his televangelist father, Falwell faced his first notable controversy during a speech in 2015. At a university convocation, he the San Bernardino shooting that year would not have occurred if more people had concealed-carry permits to “end those Muslims before they walked in killing.”

I bet it was. 😏

Why don't 'we the people' just sacrifice Jerry Falwell as an gift to the Anti-Corona-God? Could be helpful ... 'What do you have to lose? Is just for fun!' and if not, it was with good intentions.

WWJD

JerryFalwellJr For a preacher, sure, good fun!

alfranken was crucified for less.

Another trash bag.

He should have retired a long time ago. He is a hypocritical, arrogant, and profane man who has failed utterly to be a spiritual leader. Those who support him should recognize him for the grifter he is, ask him to resign and urge him to seek help.

Nothing good about it.

The photo and the behavior it shows is precisely how Evangelical Hypochristians behave. Resign for what, being honest for once?

what does mike pence want ? he is the super-christian, let him decide.

So people look to him for moral leadership? Y’all are crazy.

That sweet sweet pootang. Put many of the clergy out of commission.

IAmSophiaNelson He’s a perfect example of white evangelical hypocrisy.

Yes, poking fun at the less-privileged. Scum.

Because hypocritical deviant preachers make the best comedians.

Is Liberty University incorporated as a not for profit institution? Maybe there should be an investigation into how their donors money is spent.

there was nothing fun about that photo. i almost puked

Jerry's pool boy really needs a book deal.

Hypocrisy at it’s finest

If one of the students at Liberty U had done that they'd already have been expelled.

We don't care if he wants to have fun sexy drinking time on his boat, just don't lie about it and act like a self righteous butt head.

It was in clear violation of several of his so-called 'beliefs' that he quite happily holds everyone else to at his convenience, so damn right he should resign.

Good Christian fun right?

Racy photos are good for Christianity...finally...
