Yes, according to Christopher Hitchens, who uses Jerry Falwell as an example of this. Who other than a “religious person” could get away with making such bigoted statements as Falwell made on national media outlets?

Thought on Jerry Falwell’s Passing
CNN International (our one English speaking channel at the hotel) reported last night that Jerry Falwell passed away. The first thing that came to mind for me was, “If he took the time he spent bashing homosexuals and spent it getting some exercise, he’d still be alive AND the world (especially America) would be a better place today.”
PS: I finally figured out how to use quotes and apostrophes.
