Billy Graham, Noble Preacher, Speaks Out

A little comment by Billy Graham, from the recently released batch of Nixon tapes:

"GRAHAM: Well, you know I told you one time that the bible talks about two kinds of Jews. One is called the Synagogue of Satan. They're the ones putting out the pornographic literature. They're the ones putting out these obscene films."

I used to hold to the naive belief that there were actual evangelical Christians that were not Jew-haters. The statements of Billy Graham, found on various Nixon tapes, were a big part in disabusing me of that belief. If any right wing Christian were a decent person, I would have thought it would be him. But no.

Sadly, I now believe that every single evangelical Christian, from members of the violent Identity movement, all the way to characters like Jimmy Carter, with his recent promotion of Hamas, is, under the surface, an antisemite.

A harsh judgement, but that's what I see.

In connection with Carter's association with Hamas, please see my next post, above.
