Chastity An “Oddity”
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) LONDON. June 7.
The American evangelist, Billy Graham, told a crowd of 18,000 here that he had not even kissed his wife until they were engaged to be married.
“She would not let me,” he added. But since then they had had “23 years of honeymoon.”
Civilisation had become so preoccupied with sex, Dr. Graham said, that it was oozing from all pores of life. “Chastity and faithfulness are increasingly viewed as oddities, survivals of a Victorian age,” he said. Dr. Graham was speaking at Earl’s Court hall in his second British campaign, now a week old.
