Gag me! My admiration for Mr. Graham just evaporated.
There is folly in trusting to human beings--Graham has reaped a lot of material rewards in being the premier evangelist. But I do not believe that it is possible for a human being, once exposed to celebrity, to ever be able to overcome the spiritual damage it does. All is vanity.
Medical personnel in Asheville hospitals can tell you stories about how the Grahams expect a helicopter to be sent to their log mansion every time they catch cold...
I agree! When DH and I saw this on the news this am, I turned to him and said" Who would have thought Reverend Graham was a star-******"! The only excuse I could make for him was that he's old and sick...And before you get on my case, next to the Pope, Rev. Graham is(was) the epitome of religious authority and class.
