There is a mistake though, which is pointed out in the comments that Billy Ghrahm is not dead though the reporter said he was.

Wow. It is very informative. It is good that some family member grew a brain and think for themselves.

I find it fascinating when children of extremists reject their parents teachings. Another person who does so is Frank Schaefer, who is the son of Francis Schaefer, one of the architects of the Evangelical movement. It's always astounding to see them break out of those shells.
