James Dobson-Seriously????

Some of you may have heard the recent news that Dr. James Dobson of "Focus on the Family" and other evangelical leaders have called for the resignation of the VP of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE). Their reasoning is he focuses too much on "global warming" and not as much on other hot button issues (ie. abortion, gay marriage, etc.) Dr. Dobson even went so far as to call the VP's views "demoralizing".

I have really tried to keep my thoughts and opinions neutral in this situation. While I'm not totally sure where Dr. Dobson is coming from I can see that if you are the VP you should probably promote the views of the organization you represent. Then I read something interesting today.

Dr. Dobson is NOT even a member of the NAE!!!!!!!!!

Then keep your nose out of it!

Don't get me wrong...I have a lot of respect for Dr. Dobson and the work he has done in the field of family and children...however, this does not make sense. Why go so far as to ask for the resignation of someone from an organization you don't even belong to?????

That makes as much sense as having people on the board of the church that are not even church members. I've got one word for that....STUPID!

If this offends anyone I apologize...NOT for what I said but for how I may have said it.

Every one have a great day and try to watch some of the NCAA tournament today.
