Falwell and Robertson go out on limbs, but that is how they get attention. I believe they may have been better off to say that God takes away His protection from countries that stray from Him (and maybe that is what MB and DH were getting at). Franklin Graham was interviewed on FoxNews 9/13/01, and he did not go where the others went, but simply said that it was a time for each of us to examine our own lives and get right with God. I believe that Lincoln's speech calling for a day of prayer and fasting would be appropriate for 9/11/02. It may help show other nations, particularly Arab, that we can go beyond news specials and rock concert benefits to honor and remember the victims of the terrorist attacks.
