Franklin Graham Urges Cardinal Dolan to Excommunicate Andrew Cuomo

“Whether it moves the governor’s calloused heart or not, it will have a great impact on not only the church in New York, but on the church worldwide. It’s about standing for right over wrong, good over evil.”

(Thomas D. Williams – Breitbart)  Celebrated evangelical pastor Franklin Graham has urged Cardinal Timothy Dolan to take a strong moral stand against Governor Andrew Cuomo for his recent expansion of abortion in New York in the face of calls for the governor’s excommunication.

Rev. Graham tweeted out a Fox News article in which Catholic leaders call for the excommunication of Gov. Cuomo for “flagrant celebration of pro-abortion bill.”

The article cites Tennesee Bishop Rick Stika of Knoxville who said that if it were up to him, he would excommunicate Cuomo.

“This vote is so hideous and vile that it warrants the act,” Bishop Stika wrote.

In response, Cardinal Dolan, the archbishop of New York, said he does not want to excommunicate the Catholic governor because it would not be effective. View article →
