Quote
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
[while having dinner]
Do you go to church?
Larry Flynt:
Yeah particularly the big holidays Christmas, Easter, New Year's Eve
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
[confused]
New Year's Eve?
Larry Flynt:
They don't have church on New Year's Eve? Ok you've proven I'm a liar, I never go
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
It's not important, that's only a ritual and I believe going straight to the teachings of Jesus
Larry Flynt:
Would you call yourself a "faith healer"?
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
Goodness no, I do spiritual healing. I don't mend bones, I mend troubled souls
Larry Flynt:
That's a relief because I though you would be one of those fakes, scare the kids "wicked this, wicked that"
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
"Hell fire", damnation", that sort of thing? That kind of talk is almost "unforgiveable"
Larry Flynt:
I'd say we have something in common
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
Actually there's something else we have in common
Larry Flynt:
What's that?
Ruth Carter Stapleton:
We're both trying to release people from sexual repression
Transcript
Do you go to church, Larry?
Yeah, church.
Particularly, ahem, you know,
the big holidays,
Christmas and Easter
and New Year's Eve.
New Year's Eve?
Well, that...
They don't have church
on New Year's Eve. Okay, well,
we've proven I'm a liar and, uh...
I never go.
It's not important.
That's only a ritual.
And I believe in going straight
to the teachings of Jesus.
And does she love that man.
So would you call yourself, uh,
a faith healer?
Goodness, no.
I do spiritual healing.
Oh.
I don't mend bones.
I mend troubled souls.
That's a relief. I thought you might
be like those tent revival fakes,
you know, that used to come
scare the kids with snakes,
and, you know, "Wicked this,
wicked that," and...
Hellfire? Damnation?
That sort of thing?
Yeah.
That kind of talk
is almost unforgivable.
Well, then, I'd say we have
something in common.
Actually, Larry, there's something
else you and I have in common.
What's that?
We're both trying
to release people
from sexual repression.
Really?
I'm sorry, Mrs. Stapleton.
So tell me, ahem, is your brother, Ji...
Mr. President...
Jimmy. Jimmy will be fine.
Okay. Jimmy, uh...
You think he ever read
my publication?
You remember that interview he gave
Playboy magazine?
The one where he admitted
that he had lust in his heart?
You know, I was especially
proud of that.
I'm sure you were. But Oral Roberts
wasn't, and Billy Graham wasn't.
And they took out after him in public.
So I don't think he's a big
fan of adult magazines.
