I am asked what I think about the "Christian minister" Franklin Graham calling on Pete Buttigieg to "repent" from being, unlike Franklin Graham, happily married in personal commitment, employed in a lifetime of public service, not bilking people on the basis of a hallelujah peddling PR operation inherited from his far from admirable father, running a cult of personality theme park where, or so I'm read, you can hardly turn a corner without coming onto a Billy Graham themed gift store.
Like so many of his fellow Bible thumping hypocrites, Franklin Graham is in violation of the clearest teaching on sexual morality that Jesus ever gave banning remarriage after divorce - he never said a word about a faithful, committed same-sex relationship, the kind of marriage Pete Buttigieg and Chasten Glezman (another public servant) share. Neither, by the way, did Paul who never addressed that kind of relationship or, I would guess, could have imagined it to comment on.
And that's not to mention Franklin Graham's blessing on the morality of his fellow Mammonist and adulterer, Donald Trump. I would also wonder why Graham has not commented on the universally known to be gay Lindsay Graham not to mention some other Republicans who are known to enjoy a swinging gay lifestyle while either pretending to be straight (some of them married to women) or just pretending.
Franklin Graham is not a minister of God, he is a huckster of Mammon. He is a hypocrite and a fraud whose words are meaningful only to his fellow Mammonist frauds and liars and hypocrites and most of them don't care anymore if they're true than they do that Trump's are. What they know is they hate the same people and want the same things. To do that they'd follow anyone.
For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. Mark 13:22
