Billy Graham, 93, took out a full-page advertisement scheduled to run in 14 North Carolina newspapers supporting of the viciously homophobic Amendment One.
Amendment One would amend the North Carolina state constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
The ancient, ailing Bible thumper pontificated from his home in Montreat:
“At 93, I never thought we would have to debate the definition of marriage. The Bible is clear; God’s definition of marriage is between a man and a woman. I want to urge my fellow North Carolinians to vote for the marriage amendment on Tuesday, May 8. God bless you as you vote.”
Billy Graham has a disturbing history of making anti-Semitic comments.
In taped conversations in 1973 with his good friend, the late President Richard M. Nixon, Graham is heard espousing classic, anti-Semitic canards, referring to the “synagogue of Satan.”
Amendment One was written to “protect the Caucasian Race.” Seriously, you can’t make this shit up and explains why an old, white, southern Evangelical would use his remaining days to pen and pay for a full-page ad in support of the amendment. America will be a better nation when haters like Billy Graham are dead and buried.
Graham can go to hell. One way.

Fourteen newspapers? How much did that cost Billy Graham?
He must really hate “teh gays.” That’s OK. He’s from another date and time. His America is on the way out and ours is on the way in. Graham will take his hatred to the grave and we will piss on it.
His son, Franklin Graham, is a carbon copy of his daddy. The entire family is creepy.
It’s time to die, you old piece of shit!
I thought Billy Graham died years ago?
Religious hater
Why is it, do you think, that religious people are always the most hateful individuals? It’s a puzzlement, isn’t it, how they use their imaginary Ghod to justify their own hateful nature….
If Amendment One passes and the polls suggest it will, Billy Graham can go to his death bed knowing in some small way, his profoundly homophobic views helped discriminate against gays Americans in North Carolina. What says evangelical hate more than bashing a minority? It’s been going on a 1,000 years. This is Billy Graham’s contribution to humanity.
What Randy Arroyo said. Billy Graham represents a dying America, where discrimination against gay and lesbian Americans is justified by Biblical scripture. His days and his America, is rapidly drawing to a close. I predict same-sex marriage will be legal in all 50 states in 10 years. I hope I live long enough to see that wonderful day!
Rev. Billy Graham is 93 years old.
I’m in no way defending this guy but doesn’t it strike you as a bit strange that at 93, he would take the time and write the check to run pro-Amendment One ads in 14 newspapers?
This smells of his even more conservative son, Franklin Graham. In fact, I would bet $20 dollars the entire thing was orchestrated by Franklin.
Rev. Billy Graham is a vile old fuck. Just die, you worthless piece of crap.
Graham is a tired, old man, completely out of step with the USA and our values.
Bible thumpers are among the nastiest and cruelest people on earth.
Maybe one day in the future, when we’ve developed Warp Drive, they can all board a Starship and leave earth forever? I have no use for the Billy Grahams of the world and I suspect, few do.

To all of you posting these hateful messages about Billy Graham, please understand that this isnt about hate, but about truth! The fact remains that we cannot change the natural order of things just to satisfy the flesh! This isnt religion, but truth! We will all be held accountable to God for what we do here on earth! Hate all you want now and you will unfortunately remain in darkness, but the truth is being shared with you today! We live in a “me” society, where God and order have been thrown to the wayside to selfish desires and lifestyles! Look at the state of our world today! I do pray for you all that you may open yourself up to truth! I post this message in love to all! Gay and straight! I know there have been idiots who have spewed hate using Gods name, but dont blame God for man’s stupidity! Please read Roman 1:26-27 God bless you all, everyone!
