ZitatEvangelist Franklin Graham has been banned from delivering sermons by all seven venues on his upcoming tour of the United Kingdom.
The cancellations, which he says will not stop him from embarking on his tour, came in response to his belief that gay and transgender behavior is immoral.
An arena in Newcastle is the latest venue to cancel on the 67-year-old son of Billy Graham. City council leader Nick Forbes said it was the right move.
Almost 9,000 people signed a petition started by the activist group "All Out" to prevent Graham from speaking at an arena in London.
“Let’s send a clear message to this US hate monger that he is not welcome in London or the UK!” the petition read. Graham's father held historic crusades in London.
The petition does not cite any specific quote of Graham disparaging a group of people or engaging in “hate speech.”
Because of his stand on this issue, I had already put him on my monthly giving list.
