President Addresses Jerry Falwell’s Baptist Fundamentalism
If you’ve never heard President Ronald Reagan’s address to the Baptist Fundamentalism conference in April of 1984, it’s worth 20 minutes of your time. Reagan reads Jewish Navy Chaplain Arnold Resnicoff’s report from the Beirut barracks bombing the year prior. Reagan’s reactions, as well as his handling of hecklers as he reads, is fascinating.
It’s a real pleasure to be with so many who firmly believe that the answers to the world’s problems can be found in the Word of God.
– President Ronald Reagan
Think a US President would address a 20,000 strong Baptist audience today and say that on TV?
