I had a conversation with a friend yesterday. He defended Dobson’s postion of defining marriage as between a man and a woman. He said that Dobson really cared about the children, which was why he worked so hard to protect marriage. I disagreed, and despite having my position called venomous, stated that Dobson was motivated by a believe that gays were actually
mentally ill and therefore needed to be helped toward normalcy or cured, much like Bush’s idiotic stance on abstinence and contraception. Dobson is not protecting children; he is hurting a segment of our population that does not share his world view. Dobson does this by
funding legal action and by making
public statements like this one.
"Homosexuals are not monogamous. They want to destroy the institution of marriage," Dobson said. "It will destroy marriage. It will destroy the Earth."
Dobson is overselling his point. Destroy the world? It looks like his issue might be with gays after all.
I love being able to say “told you so”.

Religion is what is destroying earth, it seems to me.
