Leave a commentI love your show and when I heard that Larry King was talking about Billy Graham, I thought: Oh did he die?! I could not imagine Mr. King talking about him. Of course Mr. Graham will die soon and he is ready. He is a very amazing person that I was privileged to see in Atlanta twice and each time I was overwhelmed. I am totally Presbyterian and sometimes do not feel as comfortable with the evangelical fever, but I had to drop my guard. He is just outstanding and a soldier to the end. Plus I think, he has a totally fair grasp of the world we live in. He approaches the world honestly, having been in most all of its’ corners. Sadly, our President only visited some of these countries after he was deemed the savior that he is not. I do not mean disrespect, only humor. And that is one of the reasons I love your show. You are the best at subtle comedy. It’s not stand-up or in your face, but the comic relief is there. And believe me, by 5:00 pm in Atlanta when you’re getting off work in the most liberal city in the South, you need that relief.
On hearing the entire broadcast, which I did not originally, I just wonder what Larry King is talking about hypocritical ministers. I personally do not see any evidence of that in Atlanta. The Atlanta churches feed the poor, welcome the stranger, and assist the homeless. In my opinion they overreach what is beneficial for outreach. At my church, North Avenue Pres, we have many city missions. Most important is the mission to end human trafficking of women, which is very active in Midtown where the church exists. Most ministers whatever the denomination or creed, are really there as elevated servants and intercessors, Yes, they make a decent salary but they are truly on call day and night. I hate the cop-out to accepting a religious faith based on Larry King’s assertions. Finally either the veil is drawn or you see the light!
