Billy Graham. Was he correct about Christian Conservatism?

This is a quote from Rev. Billy Graham at the inception of the birth of the religious right which I find interesting.

“I don't want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.”_Billy Graham(1981)

    To a degree, but I'd rather be a conservative closer to the Gospel truth than with modern liberalism that water down everything in the Church.

    No, I disagree. If he thinks that those who are trying to be exact is wrong, then he must also include Christ who said in John 14:31---I do exactly what my Father commands. And no surprise, He demands the same of us.

    God discusses civil government. All the greats in the Old Testament were involved. If good men are not in civil government then we will be ruled by evil people, which is what we have had for the last 8 years.

    Yeah, well, that fraud should have practiced what he preached. Despicable man, and so is his son.
