Famed evangelist Billy Graham wrote a stirring defense of Calley, the officer in charge of the massacre.
No Billy, we have not.
The sickness of the evangelical church is not a recent development.

"So Mr. Graham, does that mean you're willing to forgive Obama for wearing a tan suit or eating Dijon mustard that one time?"
Mr. Graham, in "Bilbo suddenly turning into Gollum for a second" voice: "NEVER"
You know, looking back on my life, I've made some mistakes. But I have never committed nor have I excused the rape and murder of children. Billy Graham got to hell in 2018 and I hope he's had a new My Lai every day since then.
