you're clueless. Even if the Jews hadn't rejected Christ, the high priest was still responsible for sacrificing the lamb. Therefore, the priest would have still sacrificed Christ.

And what was the “high priest”

I guess we can’t say Pharisee anymore it has anti Semitic connotations

Those people he had helping after the flood were legit.


That was Samaritan's Purse run by his son Franklin Graham and yes, they are legit. Fantastic organization.

His "Choices" message is a must watch.

Back in 1971 when I was a student at LSU, BG had a program in Tiger Stadium for a couple of nights. Since I lived on campus, me and a couple of friends decided to go one night. Tiger Stadium was packed and BG was interesting to listen to. I was impressed by his preaching and he seemed to firmly believe what he was preaching. They only passed the collection plate one time and he didn't seem to be all about money. Of course, many of my friends claimed that it is money that motivates him. If he is driven by money, then he puts on a great show to prove that he isn't about money.

Franklin did and continues to do good work. But fame has gotten the better of him. He loves attention and hobnobbing with important people. And the twitter. He thinks his opinion matters on all things.

To have someone like that as a father rarely bods well for the child. Some of it is the child’s fault.

He was one of the good guys.
I’ve had heard that his son has tarnished his dads good name.

Not sure what that’s about.

He always made sure he was never alone with a woman who wasn't his wife. Made sure there was at least one other man in the room. Got to like the guy for knowing the ways of a woman in that regard and making sure they couldn't take him out. He's got my respect.

Only thing is something Lenny Bruce once said: Never trust a preacher who has two suits. If there is a man who has none, than the preacher is surely a charlatan.

Got to hand it to Bruce on that major point. At least he read the book. More than you can say for most people. It's funny many "Christians" get so pissed when someone points this out, but it is so illuminating.

I guess people like to call themselves followers of Christ, yet won't go where the Bible tells them to go and do what it instructs, especially preachers.

Graham may have come the closest for the ones in the limelight, who usually turn out so wrong.

Billy Graham was one of the greatest humans to ever live. Few if any have done more to help mankind.

When it was revealed on the Nixon tapes that he participated in anti Jewish and anti black conversations with Nixon. He was contrite. 


He was caught playing up to the president, all in on prejudice. Then pretended he developed a conscience.

This proves f33's assertion of flim flam man. Two faced con.

He's number two all time corrupt. Lindsey Graham is the least among all political speakers.

Are they cousins?

In a video unearthed from December 1998 circulating on Twitter on Friday, the South Carolina legislator passionately states that Richard Nixon could have been impeached for failing to comply with subpoenas from Congress.

Ive met many famous, powerful, influential people.
There was something very different about him. You definitely felt a presence. He had a dignity about him.
