Franklin Graham pulls bank accounts from Wells Fargo over LGBT ad campaign

Franklin Graham took to Facebook to send his followers a message last week — stop doing business with companies that support the gay community.

For his part, Graham is pulling all bank accounts for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association out of Wells Fargo.

The impetus? The bank's new ad featuring a lesbian couple.

“This is one way we as Christians can speak out — we have the power of choice,” Graham wrote on his Facebook page. “Let’s just stop doing business with those who promote sin and stand against Almighty God’s laws and His standards. Maybe if enough of us do this, it will get their attention. Share this if you agree.”

Do as Jesus instructed the rich man take all your money and give it to the poor. You would then have no investment problems and might pass through the eye of a needle.

They would be reduced to making their own money.

You go, Franklin Graham! Fight that fight! Fly free and find an evangelical bank that cares more about being against the gays then making money…

Pretty sure Wells fargo is going to be ok…
