Your screen name is apropos

Yes, it is. Ha! Just ask anyone in my life. I try my best to think the best of people. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Just don't call me naive, because it's a choice of how I wanted to approach the world. It's worked out pretty well for me.

So here's my response: I think that you are right that Graham has cozied up to many people of ill repute. But didn't Jesus get criticized for exactly the same thing? Do BG think he's sold out sometimes, honestly, I don't know, because I'm not behind the scenes.

For me, it's just two separate issues. And I still find B & H icky. On ALL levels. But I fear that is not particularly good outreach.

No he didn't. Jesus was harshly critical of the apostate religious and political leaders of his day. He pulled no punches, calling them snakes, vipers, sons of Satan, heretics, and murderers.

The truth is always a good outreach.
