Billy Graham Evangelical Association websitestill pushes for the deadly and discredited conversion therapy.
This is not a figure Charlotte nor the nation should revere. Graham was a twisted man with disgusting views of the LGBT community. We should not name highways after him or note his death with warm wishes. To camouflage one’s hatred under the guise of religion is both cowardly and nonsensical.
On the day of his death, let us all remember Billy Graham was not a hero, a national icon, or a treasure.
He was a poison to our cultural evolution. Charlotte, the nation, and, indeed, the world are better off with him silenced for good.
