Wall Street Journal - HOUSES OF WORSHIP - Billy Graham Bore Witness for 99 Years. He was perhaps the most significant evangelist since the Apostle Paul.
"Graham’s personal conviction about this historic gospel is what led him to desegregate his crusades in 1953, despite the hate this stirred up among Southern segregationists. If there were no separation ropes at the cross or in heaven, there should be none at his crusades."
Even though this was 1953 and he was in the Deep South he did the right thing. That took a lot of courage.
I should stop writing right here but I'm not going to do that.
Nobody can accuse Mr. Graham of preaching what he didn't believe. However he was preaching fiction. He was part of the religious insanity problem.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
