1.0 out of 5 stars Ecclesiastes 12: 12

Understandable from the viewpoint of a secular-politically conservative pastor of bygone days. From any other viewpoint it is a disaster. From a spiritually-theologically conservative viewpoint - Solomon has said
Of writing of books there is no end." (Ecclesiastes 12: 12)

2.0 out of 5 stars The gospel according to Falwell
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2001
First published in 1980, "Listen, America!" by Jerry Falwell is a political manifesto of the so-called "Christian Right." "Listen" is basically a diatribe against the various groups whom Falwell despises: humanists, feminists, gay rights activists, much of the music and television industries, etc. Through it all, Falwell preaches a narrowly defined version of the Christian faith.
The only good thing that can be said about "Listen, America!" is that it's a pretty clear and concise example of essential Christian Right thought. Falwell praises or quotes other right wing figures like Phyllis Schlafly and Jesse Helms. He reviews American history through a distorted, one-sided lens; in his efforts to depict the United States as a Christian nation, he fails to acknowledge the full theological and philosophical diversity of the nation's founders. He insists on a simplistically literalistic reading of biblical passages.
Falwell found himself the object of much scorn after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 -- attacks which brought devastation to New York City and Washington, DC. After that horrible tragedy, Falwell publicly blamed pagans, feminists, civil libertarians, gay activists, and others for allegedly bringing divine wrath on the U.S., and thus helping cause the attack. This cruel and insensitive rant outraged an already hurting nation, and greatly discredited Falwell. But his comments should not really have surprised anybody; he had made similar intolerant statements 20 years earlier in "Listen, America!"
Throughout his career, Falwell has tried to present himself as a sort of modern-day prophet. But "Listen, America" reveals him to be someone who is totally out of step with the true Christian prophets of the 20th century: individuals such as Thomas Merton, John McNeill, and Martin Luther King, Jr. While interesting as a historical document, "Listen, America!" is an ugly, mean-spirited book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than his previous book, "Mein Kampf!!!!!!"
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2003
Boy, as a concerned Christian living in our sin-ridden society, it sure is nice to have a bright mind like Falwell lead us all away from the evil temptations of homosexual rights, caring about the environment & those darn teletubbies!! I would be lost without Falwell's guide, it sure takes the stress away from having to form my own opinions on matters & caring about others! Where do women belong? Is our military too big? Will your children become murderers only by listening to a rap or rock 'n roll cd? Falwell provides the answers to all of these tough questions and more!! If you don't want to spend an eternity in Hell, read this book!
