After Romney Meeting, Billy Graham Website Scrubs Mormon ‘Cult’ Reference
posted on October 18, 2012At Religion News Service, Daniel Burke reports that The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association’s (BGEA) has removed language labeling Mormonism a “cult” from its website. The removal comes after a meeting between Billy Graham and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney last week, during which Graham reportedly pledged to support Romney’s campaign. Ken Barun, the BGEA’s chief of staff, stated, “We removed the information from the website because we do not wish to participate in a theological debate about something that has become politicized during this campaign.”
