He makes Jerry Fallwell look sane by comparison: in fact, Fallwell has denounced him (some years ago already) - something like "I don't believe homosexuality is part of God's plan for how we should live, but He certainly doesn't approve of that sort of hate-mongering!"
I think Falwell is an honest Christian at least, not a brainless foaming zealot: I saw him on TV briefly once; he was saying something to the effect that "if we tell a woman that it would be wrong to have an abortion, and she says that she doesn't have the means to raise a child, what can she do? ... we'd better have an answer for her!", and then he went on to discuss some of the work his church actually did with adoption and family assistance programs etc.: it's not impossible to believe that he might actually have a bit of charity in his soul - it's clear that Phelps and his clan have none!)
