Franklin Graham, the son of noted evangelist Bill Graham, today came out against “The Mupperts.”

Rather than welcoming Pope Francis, a fellow Christian, to the U.S., Franklin Graham today took to Facebook to denounce “The Muppets.”

39 years after its original TV premiere, the beloved puppet-creatures are having their second TV network debut tonight.

Graham, joining with the American Family Association’s One Million Moms,Â apparently feels the show â€“Â which he has not yet seen but isÂ rumored to be a bit more mature than it was four decades ago â€“Â should be “off limits” because it “promotes sin.”

“Tonight ABC is premiering a new ‘mature version’ of the Muppets that reports say will cover a range of topics from sex to drugs to ‘interspecies relationships’ with no subject being off limits,” Graham told his 2.5 million Facebook fans.

“It sounds to me like the whole show should be off limits! Hollywood seems to be in a frenzy to see what new moral low they can reach in their programming,” the ChristianÂ evangelistÂ proclaimed.Â

“Their agenda is to promote sin to a younger and younger audience. I applaud the groupÂ One Million MomsÂ for speaking out against this and urging parents to call on ABC to take it off the air. The Bible says, ‘Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.’ That goes forÂ Kermit the FrogÂ as well!”

And no, today is not April Fool’s Day.
