Hey D L, thanks for reading and for the comment. I agree that selecting a single person for a broader criticism is not wise and say so in my piece, going on to include a few links and a quote from Russell Moore to further back up my argument.
This is also a relatively short piece that merely summarizes some of the issues we see in white American evangelicalism today. I posted it because, in many ways, Falwell and Liberty University succinctly represents a lot of these issues. Here are a few other longer reads from me on the same and similar topics:
