And now his scumbag son will step up to take with both hands and a coal shovel in his memory of his grifter/trainer.

I respect those who legally grift the ignorant. God probably isn't so forgiving though which is nice.

Ok as long as that is your position we agree.

Was he perfect no, but, through a historical lense, looking back, Graham did do a lot for diversity and race relations.

Eventually. Wasn't a big fan of the blacks or the jewish contingent until it seemed better for him professionally to acknowledge them.

The first thing and likely most important thing that comes to mind is his devotion to preaching heretical Decision Theology, which is enough for me to put him on 'ignore'. He also loved to mix up politics and religion, which is rather distasteful, and as such I have to presume his 'beliefs' were, as a result, quite fungible rather than steadfast.

I'm sure being a so-called 'televangelist' is part and parcel of Nas' dislike for the fella ... offhand I don't recall one that seemed genuine, but I also can't cite off the top of my head anything wherein he was clearly grifting for personal gain like, say, Jim & Tammy Faye Baker for example.

all of that may be true and some of your opinion can't be argued, but I don't think that adds up to "charlatan."
