What did he smoke before he said this....

I would guess what was affectionately known as "Love Boat" in DC in the 80's.......

The Reverend Dr. Bill Lawson compared Lay with civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. and Jesus Christ, and said his name would eventually be cleared.

He was a "straight arrow -- a Boy Scout, if you will -- who lived by Christian-Judeo principles," longtime friend Mick Seidl said during a memorial service that drew almost 1,200 to First United Methodist Church. The church, where Lay and his wife, Linda, were married 24 years ago this Monday, is just blocks from the downtown skyscraper that once housed Enron, the energy-trading giant that Lay built.

"I am saddened he will be remembered for the Enron indictment and trial," Seidl said. "An overzealous federal prosecutor and the media have vilified a good man. It was total character assassination."

Also this:

She said she worked with Lay for 27 years -- first at Florida Gas Co., where Lay began his public career in 1973 after working as a Washington bureaucrat, and after he moved to Houston to take on other energy business ventures. Although she lost 90 percent of her stock portfolio when Enron folded, she called Lay "a good person who did a lot of good in the community."

"He was wrong in what he did, and justice was served," she said. "But that doesn't make him a bad person. He made a big, big mistake that caused a lot of people a lot of hurt, and I know he felt bad about it."

Jesus, Ken Lay, and MLK jr: The New Trinity


I smell a sitcom.


Funny how you picked out the "anti-christian" quotes OMFG :rofl:

[sanjuro]

Name would be eventually cleared? Even if Lay did nothing criminal, he was the CEO of a company which exploited a state, destroyed the pensions of a entire company, and help usher in a depression.

Yeah, he is innocent...
