‘God Forbid’ revisits the Falwell sex scandal from the ‘pool boy’s’ point of view

1. Is it any good? I can't stomach listening to the evangelical genre - it is so yucky.

3. It's not a great documentary

I enjoyed it, It confirms how hypocritical some Christians are.

2. Not sure I want to watch, but LOVE the artwork.

Did it really "bring down" a dynasty?

4. The Falwell dynasty, yes

Jonathan Falwell is on the Board of Trustees at Liberty University and is a pastor, but that's it. Jerry Jr is SOL. They have a sister that's a surgeon at a VA hospital. Jerry Jr's son Jerry III (Trey) has been ousted as VP at Liberty University.

5. It sounds like a popcorn adventure...Unfortunately, I don't have hulu

Maybe I can purchase it on Amazon one of these days..

Sometimes you just gotta indulge....

8. I thought so too....until I watched it.

It will blow your socks off.

!st, the dude that is the pool boy...he's not what you expect. He comes across pretty damn good, actually.

But it's not about the Sex.... it's about the End Game of Fake Christian Religion.

7. JFC, this is one of the most important docs I have ever watched.

This has little to do with the sleazy sex angle of a middle-aged couple, but everything to do about what this Jesus Empire is trying to do to this country.

Titillation - 1
Reality of Republican/Trump society/political engineering - +100

I will probably reboot this post because everyone needs to watch it.

On edit: Michael Cohen plays an interesting role in this story.

9. Just occurred to me that Don Jr. coopted Jerry Jr.'s look with the moustache and beard.
