Billy Graham delivered Christs message of peace, love, and the brotherhood of mankind better than I ever could.

He was able to unite Louisville and UCF fans under a common ideal. Now THAT is impressive!

(That said, I think Franklin Graham is quite good himself. Certainly not his father but who is ? A bit more aggressive on many things - and in a way, I am glad he is.)

Along with Pope John Paul II and Mother Teresa, Billy Graham were the "grand three" of Christian ambassadors to much of the non-Christian world in the latter half of the 20th century - and yes, PJP2 and M.T. were great Godly people too and if those two also didn't make it to Heaven then none of the rest of us will go.

Those three helped unite Catholics and Protestants under the banner of Christianity and I, for one, would like to see more fellowship between the wings of Christianity instead of the back biting, which is what the Devil wants IMO (back biting and division that is. But to hell with the Devil. In fact, the Devil can kiss my ass!).
