Pope Francis suggested in a documentary that premiered on Wednesday, (October 21), that gay people "have the right to be a part of the family" and threw his support behind "civil union law", so that same sex relationships can be "legally covered".


-SNIP-

The comments made global headlines and represented a major break from traditional Catholic teaching.

And it's safe to say that Franklin Graham is not impressed.

In a lengthy Facebook post on Thursday (October 22), Graham hit out at Pope Francis, branding his comments "unthinkable in light of the Word of God"...

-SNIP-

Graham went on to reference the Old Testament in his efforts to prove that the family is composed of a "male husband and a female wife" and a number of children...

WTAF?!!!
Frankie baby, I think that you & your gang are the absolute LAST THANGS who need to say anything AT F&CKING ALL! A 'MALE HUSBAND & A FEMALE WIFE"? I'm a Christian & I know that throughout the Bible, (New AND Old testament), it was normal for a man to have MORE THAN ONE WIFE, SO...WTAF?!

You support & defend a "creature that has OPENLY f*cked around on his wives, has been CREDIBLY accused of child rape, REFUSES to submit a DNA sample because the pervert RAPED another woman IN A CHANGING ROOM IN A STORE, (BUT he's as innocent as the driven snow)& was friends with a known pedophile & ephebophile, who somehow committed suicide...

More importantly, if you want to play, let's play...Marriage is BASED on FIDELITY & DEFINITELY not lending out your wife like a library book to a POOL BOY, I mean a "BUSINESS PARTNER", to have her kneecaps banged off WHILE YOU WATCH & play with yourself but you are in league with an "EVANGELICAL shyster" who did EXACTLY that; you couldn't stop talking about the fact that President Clinton had a BJ outside of his marriage with another ADULT BUT you worship at the Apricot @$$hole's fat feet, even though that THANG has OPENLY bragged about being a serial sexual assault predator, paid off a few porn actresses to stay quiet; visited the SEX PARTIES, where teenage girls were pushed into having sex w/rich men & the Vomit inducing sexual activity of this creep, *(that we know of, that is), is his CREEPTASTIC comments about Ivanka, (on Howard Stern's radio show) & AGAIN on his $h!tty "reality show, "the apprentice". along with the numerous photos that would make most actual rapists' skin crawl, including but CERTAINLY NOT limited to, the latest where he's at an Epstein soiree with his preteen KIDS, Ivanka & Eric the Simple. Notable, Ivanka is biting her nails & people like me , (child rape survivors), who saw that, immediately thought that Vanka resembled a child afraid of molestation

I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure that The MOST High might want to have a chat with you when you make that VERY short visit to His Realm but you're part of the Righteous Holier than thou commission. You're in for a VERY painful surprise & youll get just what you've so RICHLY earned.

PS: I hope that you have several pairs of FLAME RESISTANT draws, cuz you'll need them... trust me

I HONESTLY believe this. I had an NDE, (actually 3, which added up to 45 minutes of clinical death) & what I experienced is this: "The Creator is NOT what they are telling folks who He is. I was taught that WE ARE NOT GOD & aren't qualified to judge others, ESPECIALLY when we're fucking HYPOCRITES of the HIGHEST calibre.

"Judge not lest ye be judged; for AS YE JUDGE, so SHALL YE be JUDGED! M****F***ER!!

Your point still stands but doesn't actually apply to this charlatan.

I'm certain there are other scandals and disqualifications that could be directed at Graham. Maybe they're already available and I'm just not remembering about them. And if not, I'm certain they'll be revealed soon enough.

I suspect that they both hated their fathers. In the case of Failwell that would be understandable as Failwell Sr. was a piece of excrement. In Frankie’s case I would bet that he was pressured to follow in his old man’s footsteps. Both of these guys would have been better served becoming accountants or salesmen or something else.

I have NO DOUBT that he's continued to f*ck around on "Ms Melancholia" to the present day. I DON'T GET IT! You CLAIM to be a follower of Christ but if hypocrisy was a contest, you'd win the grand prize. He conveniently forgets that Jesus said this.

REVELATION 3:15,15:
"I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! 16So, because you are lukewarm-neither hot nor cold-I am about to spit you out of my mouth."

Instead of worrying mostly about their own supposed salvation, it's mostly directed outward at others.

Many of them have the idea that God will punish the entire country, them included, unless they take action.

That's the root of the problem imo.

The Amish don't seem to have a problem living their own lives mostly in peace, for example, without forcing their beliefs on everyone else.

Edit: And the irony about their increased political activity from the 60's forward is that the country has been worse-off in many ways since they did it. They'd like to return to a period when Evangelicals were not so political -- e.g., MAGA. So why don't you try that again, Evangelicals?!
