Falwell timeline (eewwwww..he has a twin????)

Jerry Falwell, along with his twin brother Gene, is born in Lynchburg, Virginia. Jerry lives almost his entire life in Lynchburg.

June 19, 1956 Falwell's Thomas Road Baptist Chuch is founded - a break-away group from the church where Jerry was saved.

1965 Falwell continues to denounce civil rights leaders, although he claims to have changed his mind about segregation and racism in the early 1960s.

1967 Falwell sets up a racially segregated "Christian" school to avoid public school desegregation, and is denounced by local religious leaders.


January 22, 1980 Falwell attends a White House prayer breakfast with Jimmy Carter. He later lies about asking the president why he has "well known practicing homosexuals" on his staff, getting the answer that Carter considers himself the president of all citizens.
