[@brandonmills9577]

Currently watching GG and had to see what Dorothy was talking about 😂😂😂😂😂

[@againstthepods4316]

OKAY WE GET. Must everyone say the same damn thing on here

[@ianscales4347]

Yep, that’s why I’m here!

[@alexisbecker5674]

Here because of GGs "Letter to Gorbachev" !!!

[@brad349miller]

Alexis Becker the true story, Samantha Smith is from my home in Maine. Was cool to see Maine somehow get loosely pulled into Golden Girls.

[@brokenangel634]

Me too!! Lol

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

❤ love GG

[@melissachew2880]

LLS!! Me too

[@pamount]

Me too

[@earthdog5699]

Sam Kinson put t best when he said: "Jesus is still up in Heaven, thumbing through his Bible, going 'Where did I say build a water slide?' "

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

I agree but the park was getting 6 million visitors a year before the scandal hit

[@chrishollar6080]

@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES average of 4.9 million

[@christa7790]

It's October 8th, 2021 and Dorthy brought me here too...lol. I love GG's! Finally old enough (and internet access) to look up many of their classics quotes.

[@KimberlyRuble]

Also here because of Dorothy and GG. 😂

[@vellie25]

Here because of Dorothy too, wanted to see if it was true. 😂

[@brad349miller]

Marissa Kuri letter to Gorbachev story is true, too. Samantha Smith was from my home in Maine. She died just a little while after going to speak with Gorbachev.

[@babyz1859]

Dorothy Zbornak brought me here too

[@SimsMoyal]

ME TOO!!!!!!!!

[@MRLouieRS]

It's July 2020 and yes, Dorothy Zbornak brought me here.

[@MackTN74]

Dorothy Z. and Rose's letter brought me here.

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

👍

[@OG-zb1ub]

Oh man that GG joke makes sense now LMAO.

[@brad349miller]

Oskar Granados omg. you know how they got the idea for the script story, right?

[@rillyjo5810]

?

[@notthing8153]

Girl I though I was the only one

[@MyLovelyvoice]

Thank you, Golden Girls! Lol

[@constantlyinlove]

I saw it mentioned last night on the Golden Girls :)

[@rowan64official]

That's why I'm here!!!

[@soulkiss1001]

did a golden girls cast member mention a preacher going down a water slide?

[@corinnesullivan8769]

Thanks Dorothy!

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Say what you want, the man did it. Also look as he hit the bottom of the slide. He almost went airborne

[@cookie63079]

Dorothy zbornak brought me here

[@bohkhuj9247]

Preachers are the biggest con men

[@atomsmash100]

Falwell was a snake, no better than the Jim and Tammy.

[@merricat3025]

He was worse

[@tamdemetrice]

I kinda figured.

[@scottcharney1091]

Worse, he was a vile bigot, among other things.

[@fairfaxcat1312]

You are so wrong. Unlike Baker, there was no hint of scandal around Falwell. In fact, he was victimized. I remember that back in the late ‘70’s a leftist group maliciously dialed his WATTS line (800 number we call it now) thousands and thousands of times when buying and maintaining toll free numbers was VERY expensive. It cost his ministry a fortune.

[@kennethsouthard6042]

But he knew how to stay out of jail

[@lemonhead1256]

that’s how they should baptize people

[@MJBever]

And don’t forget, she also reminded us that God is busy talking to Pat Robertson!

[@DizJakeOG]

Adam The Woo brought me here.

[@jamesKI4JKV]

sweet! love Adam The Woo

[@tbec3011]

His son watched as the pool boy "went down" on his wife and is banned from Liberty campus. Let the good times roll!

[@paulallen6069]

Those Golden Girls brought me here!

[@WillieMeetsWorld]

that cheap suit is shrinking.

[@kissingthecolourswiththeho8887]

Dorothy just brought me here too 👍🏼😃

[@pbhoulden8212]

Here thanks to the wit of Dorothy Zbornak!

[@user-oh2cb2fk9g]

Lol that is so funny. I remember this

[@Stephie2007]

"Who put those piranhas in the water?" LOL

[@fairfaxcat1312]

Surprising that such a “man of the cloth” was such a great comedian. He was so naturally funny on here.

[@sandyk378]

Couldn't wait to get his hands on all of it 🤭

[@saltysouthernmomma9354]

I went down that slide many times back in the day

[@jamesKI4JKV]

sweet! thanks for watching

[@iansanderson]

This was a sad time for PTL

[@ycc6472]

I always thought Tammy Faye could have taken over the ministry and it would have soared to higher heights. Tammy was iconic and genuine Christianity flowed from her.

[@fairfaxcat1312]

Why do you say that? Nothing sad in this presentation. One of the biggest resort destinations in the South is up and running.

[@tonettehinson8998]

Bc he was a wolf in Sheep's clothing 😢

[@yourroyalhighness7662]

As Jack Nicholson says in the 1989 “Batman”, “I’m glad you’re dead!”

[@brendafuller907]

Anyone that got caught up in the Banker's BS ended up doing stupid & making fools of themselves in some way. SMH 🙄

[@JakeMabe1]

This is the most surreal thing I've ever seen.

[@pikasnipe1]

$22million gotta keep that jet running!

[@joelchristopher3668]

Water represents spiritual realms...the water fall was Jerry's fall in the spiritual world...

[@kelgreen99]

I'm here bcz of the Eyes of Tammy Faye.

[@spiroclimb2523]

Handled like a champ

[@jamesKI4JKV]

Thanks for watching

[@frankgarrett242]

What kind of a knob wears a suit on a water slide?

[@kennethsouthard6042]

That was Jerry Falwell's persona. It made him look dignified and most of the people who watched his show probably didn't even own a suit and if they did only wore it on special occasions. Dr. Farwell, "Man of God", and "Chancellor of Liberty University" could not be seen in anything other than a suit and his donors liked it that way. It was all part of the grift.

[@mortensenegbert6619]

ZIPPY THE PINHEAD brought me here.

[@SpeedyDeath]

Came here to see what Dorothy was talking about!

[@notthing8153]

The golden girls brought me here

[@destinyfamilyradio]

Do you have the whole show on tape?

[@jamesKI4JKV]

I only recorded the part that's online.

[@jamesKI4JKV]

I only recorded what was posted and I cannot locate the VHS copy anymore

[@badboyfrom1]

Karen Armstrong's Battle for God brought me here.

[@gracemacpherson8607]

To think I go to Liberty University and I’m just now seeing this because of Golden Girls 😂

[@pikasnipe1]

Wow these people are so fake, how did anyone ever buy into this?

[@paleo704]

Great moment

[@THATjeffdelaney]

What a Barnum. lol

[@Tripplebeem]

There is no god.

[@ladyrachel13]

Hilarious. 😆

[@marcus_mayhem]

Falwell thought it was all fun and games until tammy started messing with the gay community.

[@scottfgrimm]

Fonzi jumps the shark…

[@srbaruchi]

Ha! Jerry Falwell takes on a water slide.

[@xbikepunkx]

OMG, all the Golden Girls comments!!! Same! 😅

[@armorsecsys]

Amen..

[@tonettehinson8998]

Take the sound off it looks like The Price Is Right

[@ValleyoftheRogue]

At least there was no pool boy around unlike Jerry's namesake son's situation with his wife.

[@KammybRich7000]

I'm not goanna lie, I was afraid to admit it haha

[@aonetruthr]

GG brought me here too. Jerry Fellwell was an absolute moron…too bad the stunt didn’t end badly.

[@jamesKI4JKV]

Oh yeah, thanks for watching

[@jarretheller2244]

So wait a second. Followers were calling in to donate money on the premise that once a certain threshold was met, Rev Falwell would go down a water slide? For real?

[@scottcharney1091]

A lot of people aren't very bright.

[@brucevalari5612]

You had to be there in the 80s

[@darrellrussell658]

Or Ernest Angley

[@daverickert8469]

Here from behind the bastards podcast. It's actually a little frightening to see how charming two old men on a water slide can be knowing what they are doing. Trying to raise 22 million dollars in a month for good old IRS

[@modelcitizen72]

He founded a decent university and he kept clean. Good sport about the waterslide too. See, right-wingers can be decent people!

[@Davis190]

Its absolutely absurd to have a for-profit amusement part as tax exempt for religious reasons

[@timgriffin1105]

Im.from south Carolina 1.5 hours away from.heritage USA not a ministry everything was about making money

[@jamesKI4JKV]

yes I believe so

[@Payton20ADZ]

wave to your learjet Jerry, from one phony Christian to another

[@Pottymouthpollyanna]

He’s a 🐍

[@PitfallHarry72]

PTL... what a joke. I remember seeing Jim and Tammy Faye in media all the time when I was a teen. Tammy Faye and her Lee Press On Face. The 80s were so surreal.

[@andrewking8174]

The Golden Girls❤❤❤🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

[@planes3333]

I was watching a movie called "the people vs larry flint" . I then got reading about fallwell. I then came here. I dont know much, but one thing I do know is I love Jesus with all my heart but I kind of am just more and more discusted with guys like Jimmy Swaggert, Jerry Fallwell and Jim Baker. I have had a lot of problems, (more then most ) in my life but I just cant stand corruption, greed and shallow televangelism. Maybe I am wrong but I feel when you bring a bunch of media and money and bad hollywood to something as holy as Jesus it reminds me of greedy money changers. I think christianity should be so holy and respectful and they have made it a den of iniquity. IN the end god wil judge us all and I dont have any ill will against these types but man. I would say the worst of all of them is Kenneth Copeland. I consider him an enemy (though I have not met him) and I pray for him (very unwillingly) . and now to Jesus the king of kings I call you lord and savior and I apologise on behalf of mankind for the pathetic mamon charade of these snakes. If I am wrong in what I am saying please correct me. I want to learn and be good.Peace to you all

[@nikkirennefisher5465]

hahaha u go Dorothy zbornak.

[@bruizer7155]

Ya think he let bakker hold his wallet?

[@LSweet2007]

Was Jim Bakker already serving time at this time?

[@abrock4052]

Not yet, I don't think.

[@seugene7040]

Wasn’t Jim Bakker the one that built this water park?

[@jamesKI4JKV]

that is correct

[@1234567mrbob]

I forgot how crappy video quality was in the 1980s.

[@Kimberly.vandermeid]

Jerry Falwell! What a joke he is!

[@scottcharney1091]

Was, thankfully. Of course, his son is a joke too.

[@PilotVBall]

Disgusting.

[@kadu21]

Well yeah its cheap would you go done a water slide in a $800 suit

[@DizJakeOG]

Why did he wear his suit!?

[@crixxxxxxxxx]

Because no one wanted to see him in a bathing suit.

[@nostalgiajim]

This is pretty much what had to happen to get my aunt out of the slimy clutches of this evil outfit...RIP Aunt Annie

[@PrettyGoodLookin]

Where is the Waterslide ?

[@jamesKI4JKV]

All got torn down and there are homes there now

[@hsimpson6581]

I pray his trip to Hell was this fast !!

[@interccessorful]

He stole ptl

[@ycc6472]

Jerry Fallwell went down the waterfall and tore down the ministry. Doug Olden was right, not a fan of Judgmental Jerry.

[@mokokawi]

I loved PTL....im sorry for the scandal, but many were saved and lived more wholesome lives with the preaching and uplifting shows on PTL

[@johndavis8669]

Why did he not wear swimming clothes

[@jamesKI4JKV]

I think that was part of the fundraising deal, if they got the money, he would go in his suit

[@pbhoulden8212]

To quote Dorothy Zbornak, God really wanted him to go down a waterslide in a cheap suit.

[@bentstrider]

Carpetbagger Jacob brought me over here!!

[@jamesKI4JKV]

AWESOME! Love Jacob the Carpetbagger

[@qwamiade]

GOOD CHRISTIAN FUN podcast brought me here: The Power Team episode. Thanks...Rahhhhhrrrrrrr?

[@bigal3780]

(((((( Bea Arthur )))))

[@mikev4089]

Bunch of fakers

[@fairfaxcat1312]

You have to love and appreciate Jerry Falwell, the Old Time Gospel Hour, and all he did to help the Bakkers and PTL.

[@jamesKI4JKV]

Oh yes definitely. Thanks for watching

[@scottcharney1091]

Why would anyone love and appreciate such a hateful person?

[@crixxxxxxxxx]

You really don’t. The guy was vile.

[@alanmoon7785]

Something bothers everyone or else you wouldnt have posted hatred, you would have said nothing if three isn't truth to what Jerry Falwell said, anger comes from fear

[@scottcharney1091]
