Dr. Dobson has the right to make comments as to who he prefers as a candidate. Everyone in this country, no matter who they are have ‘FREEDOM of SPEECH’ we don’t lose that right under any circumstance, no matter who we are.

Roger — Did I say Dr. Dobson had no RIGHT to speak? No, I certainly did not. I agree, everyone has freedom of speech in our country. Dr. Dobson has the right to speak his mind concerning the government and those who lead us.

Again, whether Dr. Dobson has the right to speak or not, is not the issue. The content of his freely spoken statement was arrogant or it wasn’t. This has nothing to do with his moral character, his writings, or his right to speak.

YOU WRITE:….. “Christian brotherhood is about unity, not about being “right” – especially not “more right” than other Christians! I am especially bothered by the last paragraph of the rebuttal, which strikes me as very self-righteous and holier-than-thou. The discussion of Dobson’s defense of biblical principles turns the argument into a new corner by implying WoW was attacking these biblical principles. Did we need to go there? Really? Does FoF have a monopoly on correctly interpreted biblical principles”

“Christian brotherhood is not about unity if one person is being made a spectacle and admonished as to who they have said they will support during an election. The idea that all so called ‘Christians’ are to be about ‘unity’ is a misnomer – I am not unified with every person who claims to be a ‘Christian’ – many people have no idea what being a Believer is, nor do they believe the Bible to be true, however they ’say they are Christians’ – I think you get the idea-

There is nothing wrong with believing yourself to be right, after all, you believe you are right, so does that make you “very self-righteous and holier-than-thou.” ?

Many people are very envious of Dr. Dobson, the books he has written, the help he has offered to parents, his dedication as a Christian. There will always be those who attack a man like Dr. Dobson, or Billy Graham and many others who have been outstanding leaders in the Christian community. It’s this jealousy which many suffer from, that’s why they lash out.

The statement you refer to, made by Gary Schneeberger:

“Dr. Dobson has spent 35 years “in the arena,” as Theodore Roosevelt said, defending the value of all human life and the importance of traditional marriage as a building block of society. He’s taken his fair share of hits from the media (even the Christian media, including World) for the stands he’s taken. Those positions spring not from expediency, but from conscience and principle. It is an honor to serve such a man, because he is the antithesis of a flip-flopper. He is guided by deeply held biblical convictions — and is unafraid to defend his beliefs against those who would mock or misrepresent them.”

If this causes you to make such a remark against him, as ” I am especially bothered by the last paragraph of the rebuttal, which strikes me as very self-righteous and holier-than-thou.” – it is your problem to deal with.

Writers at FoF would have been much wiser to make deep breaths and the “backspace” key the main instruments of their response. What did FoF need to prove with their long response? What is it covering up?

# 51 said it best: A two-sentence response would have done the job!

Whether Dr. Dobson is a good man or not makes no difference to the question of whether his statements were arrogant. Your statements concerning Dr. Dobson’s books and his character are irrelevant. Any man who announces his preference of a candidate in order to influence his followers is displaying a sense of overbearing self-worth and self-importance.

Do you see that or not?

I asked you a question, and you respond:

“Your question is totally irrelevant, but the answer is none. I assume you like to read the Bible. “Then you will begin to say, `We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets ‘; and He will say, `I tell you, I do not know where you are from; depart from Me, all you evildoers.’ Luke 13:26-27.”

Roger, don’t flatter yourself and try and put words in my mouth or that of the LORD Jesus Christ when you say “Then you will begin to say,” ——– Instead, look at yourself and your life-

Roger, I asked you about the books you had read, and which ones regarding Dr. James Dobson and you answer with this post?

Dr. James Dobson is a good man. Because you want to find fault with him and then use the passage in Luke as my demise only shows how little you understand the Word of God.
