This is fun: An improbable alliance of five Vancouver-area Catholic and Evangelical leaders have released a letter inviting Franklin Graham to please stay out of their town.
Evangelical and Catholic leaders in Vancouver, Canada, have come together to oppose an upcoming visit by the televangelist Franklin Graham, calling him “incendiary and intolerant” as well as “ungracious and bigoted”.

The letter went on: “We … denounce the frequent incendiary and intolerant statements made by Rev Graham, which he unapologetically reiterates.”
Good for them. Graham is an odious man all the way down and, though they will doubtless feel the sting of charges from the Pious that they aren’t behaving like good Christians, I think it’s high time that decent-minded people of all beliefs start holding such as Graham accountable for their bad behavior. Well done.
