In the National Law Journal's article on Jerry Falwell's new right-wing christian law school, is the following tidbit:
Allow me.
Falwell's virulent brand of muddle-headed fundamentalism promotes the idea of a "Christian America" that is inimical to the inclusive values of this country and our constitutional law. This is, after all, the fellow who engages in some magical thinking by holding that secular Americans bear some direct responsibility for the 9/11 attacks.
Falwell himself is a poor role model for future lawyers--a scoff-law who still seeks to engage fundamentalist churches in political activities forbidden to tax-exempt entities.
If you think you already have all the answers you need to any problem, you ain't gonna be much of a lawyer.
A dozen deans at the nation's top law schools declined to comment on Falwell's latest endeavor. Several scholars and practitioners opted to keep their opinions private. Recruiters at law firms also declined comment.Pathetic, these brave lawyers, these champions of truth.
Allow me.
