When Osama brought down the twin towers, the daughter of the pastor Billy Graham wrote a letter, which I transcribe here for those who want to read...
Do not want to add fuel to the fire... This is no place for religious, I think... But I find it strange discuss the attacks on a site dedicated to pornography.
Later, some still claim to members of my post's sex dolls...

Why the Towers fell in New York?
(Magazine "Ask and respond" - Lumen Christi Issues - February 2005)
Mrs. Anne Graham, daughter of the pastor Billy Graham, gave an interview to US television in pointing the cooling of faith in the American people as a cause of the fall of the New York towers. The reasoning thus invites an examination of conscience, but should not instill the idea that God is waiting for the police to punish the defendant for the first time. It is man who punishes himself by breaking the law of God. The Lord does not want to prevent the men from exercising their freedom to commit evil, because it has resources to draw evil even greater goods, as taught Sto. Augustine. Below is the interview transcript:
Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson presenter asked her, "How could God have let something so awful happen on September 11, 2001"
Anne Grahm gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said:
"I believe God is deeply saddened by what happened as much as us. For many years we have been saying that God does not interfere with our choices, get out of our government and get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe he has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and protection if we demand that he not us alone? In light of recent events, terrorists attack, school shootings, etc.
I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, and her body found recently) complained that it was improper want prayer in our schools as was done traditionally, and we agree with your opinion.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school ... the Bible says thou shalt not kill, we should not steal, and love our neighbor as ourselves. And we agree.
Soon after, Dr. Benjamin Spock said we should not reprimand our children when they misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide) and we said: 'An expert should know what he is saying, "and we agree with him.
Then someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave. The school administrators said no teacher in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because they did not want negative publicity and did not want to be sued (there is a big difference between disciplining and touching, beating, punching, humiliate and kick, etc.). And I agree with everything.
Then someone suggested that we should let our daughters have abortions if they so wished, and not even have to tell their parents. And we accept this suggestion without even questioning.
Then a member of the very well known school board chair said that as boys will be boys, and how men would end up making the inevitable, then we should give our children as many condoms they want, so they could enjoy it at will; not even have to tell their parents that they had obtained in the school. And I said, 'Okay.'
After some of our most important elected officials said it would not matter all what we did in our privacy since we were fulfilling our duties. We agree with them, we said for us not make any difference what a person did in private, including our president, since our jobs were maintained and our economy stay balanced.
Then someone suggested that imprimíssemos magazines with pictures of naked women, and say that this is a healthy thing, and a natural appreciation of the beauty of the female body. And we also agree.
Then someone else took it a step further and published pictures of nude children and went further still, putting them available on the internet. And I said, 'Okay, this is democracy, and they have the right to enjoy the freedom to express themselves and do it'.
The entertainment industry then said, 'Let's make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence and explicit sex. Let's record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes. ' And we said, 'This is just for fun and does not produce any harmful effect. Nobody takes it seriously right! 'Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, and who can not distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, why does not bother them to kill strangers, their own classmates, and themselves.
