Graham's a victim? Of bigotry no less? That's awful. There's no excuse.

You didn't actually read Graham's statements, did you? Be honest. You just posted sarcastic witticisms desinged primarily to impugn the character of someone Because You Could. Consider the circumstances -- private conversations. Do you ever make contextually-dependendent shorthand references to a group of people as Graham did? It's fairly obvious that the Jews he was talking about were not all Jews, and his further description of the particulars makes that plain. For the record, Graham is right. Note how quickly you get tarred for saying something that can be construed as anti-semetic, or anti-Black, but you can dog on "white boys" all day and no-one says a word. And then you suggest that this constitutes "hatred" on the part of Graham or Christians as a whole. I must say -- not only did you not read the statements of the person you maligned, but you extrapolate from them based upon left-wing stereotypes promulgated by the media.

In the media, Graham's been a victim of a bigotted liberal press many times, and this article is no exception, with the nonsensical quote of Foxman's. Grahams apologized for his 1972 comments, I don't expect to see Foxman apologize for his outrageous 2002 comments anytime soon.

They're the ones putting out the pornographic stuff," Mr. Graham said on the tape, after agreeing with Mr. Nixon that left-wing Jews dominate the news media. The Jewish "stranglehold has got to be broken or the country's going down the drain," he continued, suggesting that if Mr. Nixon were re-elected, "then we might be able to do something."

At worst, Billy's lying and attitudes toward Jews are vices and, as with all vices, he is paying the price for this behavior--which doesn't directly violate the rights of his neighbors--right now in this life here on earth.

But soon, at the Judgement, Billy will learn a lesson about the price he must pay for the crimes that he and Tricky planned in these tape recorded meetings and commited against their neighbors. Soon Billy will learn that God knows the difference between vice and crime.

Soon Billy will learn that, unlike his vices, his crimes injured his neighbors and he is personally responsible for their losses until he repents and his debts are forgiven.
