Your original post reminded me of the fact that I have a close relative who also adores Franklin and went to DC to see him for his Prayer Revival or whatever he actually had. It was the same day he was in the Rose Garden with the evil ones. I have no right to judge others, but I do have a right to my opinion and here it is. Growing up, we watched Billy Graham when he had his Crusades and we thought highly of him. Since then, I learned many things about him that have tainted all of the respect I had for him, but all in all, I still think that he cared about Humanity and was a good person. I don't feel the same way about his son, Franklin. Dr. Charles Stanley was also someone we listen to and even though he wasn't very Progressive, I still enjoyed his sermons. I think his son is much more Progressive and has taken over his dynasty in a very good way.
