First, I suspect that the story about the Cadillacs and condos pertained
to Jimmy and Tammy-Faye (you know who I mean - their last name rhymes
with "faker"), not to Billy Graham.

If anyone finds this article, please post a summary of it to the net. I
would be interested (and I suspect a lot of others would be also) to see
all the dirt they dug up.

Unless the article digs up dirt on non-Christian evangelists as well,
please post the summary to net.religion.christian.

(I was a good Christian teenager, and never read Playboy. I just looked
at the pictures. :-)
