Just saying. And I can be critical of them both. Just not now, of Billy.
Your post about Barb Bush and Billy on the phone was the one that reminded me of Graham's flaws in his ministry and his universalism and prompted me to post about it. Graham appeared hesitant to say that those who don't believe in Christ go to hell. You provided one of the clearest examples to support what I'm talking about...so thank you.

It is also indicating that contrary to W. Lee's view (as quoted by Drake), Graham tended towards man-pleasing, particularly in his later life. It is for this reason he was held in high esteem by the world's media, country leaders, etc.
