Franklin Graham: School Boards Must Be Run by Evangelical Christians Instead of 'Wicked, Evil' Gays

http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/davidbadash/franklin_graham_school_boards_must_be_run_by_evangelical_christians_instead_of_wicked_evil_gays

Franklin Graham says he wants every school board in America to be controlled by Evangelical Christians within the next few years, because right now "evil, wicked" gay people are running them.

“I want the school boards of America in the hands of evangelical Christians within the next four to six years,” Graham told Fox News religion reporter Todd Starnes on Thursday, as Right Wing Watch reports. “And it can happen and that will have a huge impact because so many school districts now are controlled by wicked, evil people, and the gays and lesbians, and I keep bringing their name up, but they are at the forefront of this attack against Christianity in America.”

Listen below. Graham's remarks about LGBT people begin just before the four-minute mark, almost at the end:

Have you seen how they're teaching piano?



On the bright side, at least they're bringing Christmas back into the schools.

You should segue into this at the end of the first video. If not, here's another one:
