Third UK stadium bars Franklin Graham from preaching to appease LGBT activists

A third United Kingdom venue has canceled an appearance by American missionary Franklin Graham.  Earlier this week, stadiums in the English cities of Sheffield and   Liverpool   bowed to pressure from LGBT activists and their “allies” to bar Graham, the son of the world-famous evangelist Billy Graham, from preaching.   Now Glasgow’s Scottish Event Campus (SEC) Hydro has done the same.  Pauline Gallagher  said  she was “saddened” that the Protestant evangelical had been barred from her city.  “I am saddened beyond words that Billy Graham's son has been banned from speaking in Glasgow,” Gallagher said.  “The dividing line is not between religious and LGBT. It is between reasonable and unreasonable people,” she continued.  “High profile commentators like Douglas Murray and Andrew Doyle in the U.K. and Dave Rubin in the U.S., who are gay, are speaking out for the rights of religious people to express their beliefs.”   The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) quoted
