Franklin Graham, Who’s Boycotting Pro-LGBT Companies, Moved His Money to a Gay-Pride-Supporting Bank

LOL!!

Upset that Wells Fargo used a gay couple in one of its ads, Graham said that the “Billy Graham Evangelistic Association [is] moving our accounts from Wells Fargo to another bank.”

Turns out that bank is North Carolina-based BB&T.

And BB&T is actually a proud supporter of the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade:

but they are there also. What Franklin needs to do is to read the bible and follow what Jesus taught us, to love everybody, I don't think Jesus exiled LGBT and I don't think you should exile them also. You would be a better person loving everyone, try it , it will set your heart free.

Heaven knows I'm no expert on the Bible, but isn't usury one the things frowned on? How can Franklin go to any bank?
