From CT, which has a short piece up about the BGEA’s decision, after Billy Graham met with Mitt Romney, to remove Mormons from their site as a cult.
Ken Barun, the BGEA’s chief of staff, confirmed the removal on Tuesday.
“Our primary focus at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association has always been promoting the Gospel of Jesus Christ,” Barun said in a statement. “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.”
Comments:
1. This is precisely what has not been done; BGEA has politicized theology by removing it.
2. The point of the previous accusation that Mormonism is a cult is because it denies the gospel; now BGEA has backed off that gospel claim.
