Falwell: "The Republicans are even talking about their 'big tent' now... Some of the Republicans want to bring in, like the Democrats have already done, these radical feminists, and abortionists, and homosexuals, and of course us. But I served notice in my opinion that there will be millions of Bible-believing Christians who won't stay in that tent, they will be looking for another one, and I'm one of them. And if they're looking for the weirdos and they want the radicals in their tent, maybe the time has come for a third party. But I can tell you the time has come for the Christians to stand up and be counted, and I don't care who likes it, and who gets mad. They were quoting the paper today, one homosexual writer got mad at me, bless his little heart. And they quoted someone else in there from Americans United for the Separation of Church and State . That's is an ACLU type group. And they quoted Tony Campollo. Tony used to be great with young people. Today he's pushing what I believe to be gay rights in the church. His wife Peggy-- he's a Baptist minister -- believes that the gay lifestyle, and the homosexual lifestyle is equally acceptable with the heterosexual lifestyle. She's nuts .. .Ifmy wife said that, I'd either straighten her out or I'd quit teaching."
