It is the son, I am concerned about. He is nothing less then a pure
hate-monger. And before you ask for examples, here one:
2003-APR-13: USA: Pentagon invites Franklin Graham to prayer service:
Members of the Pentagon's chaplain group issued a letter stating that:
"...we are deeply dismayed and disappointed that the Pentagon Chaplain's
Office has invited Mr. Franklin Graham, an extremely controversial and
divisive figure, to perform the Good Friday Services at the Pentagon on
April 18, 2003. Mr. Graham has made recent public statements that are
not only insulting and offensive to Muslims but also to those who
espouse ecumenism among the faith groups. Mr. Graham's negative
statements concerning Islam and Muslims, which he has never recanted,
fly in the face of what we stand for as Americans. By sponsoring and
promoting a visit to the Pentagon by an extreme fundamentalist like Mr.
Graham, the Pentagon Chaplain's Office is sending a message that it and
the Department of Defense condone public displays of attitudes and
thoughts that contradict not only Department of Defense regulations but
also the American ideal of religious tolerance. We hope and pray that
the Pentagon Chaplain's Office will reconsider its invitation to Mr.
Graham and instead invite a more inclusive and honorable Christian
clergyman to perform the Good Friday Services."
