Billy Graham is absolutely despised by millions of evangelicals because he always had a good relationship with Catholics, and especially the popes.

It's the Bob Jones crowd that has had a problem with Billy's ministry (too soft). I wouldn't say it's the entire evangelical part of Christ's Body that has spoken against him. (Billy is an evangelist, ya know.)

And Billy isn't the only one who has had a good relationship with Catholics. I also have had good relationships with the two or maybe three Catholic girls I ever knew. But if they grew up to be like one or two of the RC banshees on the FR RF...whew!...I dodged those bullets.

I was raised in a very rigid, hardline, hellfire fundamentalist church, and Billy Graham was held in extremely high esteem. I didn’t understand it, since he taught things we didn’t believe, but that’s the way it was.

Who is Bob Jones? He surely can’t be representative of Evangelicals. I thought I knew or heard of most everybody of any significance.

Same here. Maybe the one I scorned in HS is here on FR today!
