Franklin Graham CRACKER, the Trump loving con-artist son of the late evangelist Billy Graham on Wednesday made a pubic statement against Presidential democratic candidate Pete Buttigieg and the fact that he is a gay christian.
“Mayor Buttigieg says he’s a gay Christian. As a Christian I believe the Bible which defines homosexuality as sin, something to be repentant of, not something to be flaunted, praised or politicized. The Bible says marriage is between a man & a woman—not two men, not two women,” Graham tweeted Wednesday.
Graham’s has been tweeting anti-gay missives in response to Buttigieg telling a recent CNN town hall that “God does not have a political party.”
“[Buttigieg] is right—God doesn’t have a political party,” Graham tweeted. “But God does have commandments, laws & standards He gives us to live by. God doesn’t change. His Word is the same yesterday, today & forever… The core of the Christian faith is believing and following Jesus Christ, who God sent to be the Savior of the world—to save us from sin, to save us from hell, to save us from eternal damnation.”
People on Twitter were quick to remind Graham of this double-standard especially when it comes to Donald Trump:

But grabbing women by the pussy, sleeping with a porn star while your wife is pregnant, and lying about a black man’s birth certificate is just fine in Franklin Graham’s version of Christianity. https://t.co/B3jyBXRh1e

I think Franklin Graham is highly mistaken. People are born as is and are loved by God as is. Choosing to be gay is no more of a choice than Franklin had in being straight. God loves people, the labels we attach make no difference. It is time for the hate message and the double standard Mr Graham gives to stop. Jesus said to love God and love one another, he said nothing about us hating, judging and condemning our fellow human beings.
