The War against Children and Families # 2 of 2

Oct. 16, 2005

In a short interview, following his powerful talk to the National Religious Broadcasting Convention in Nashville, Tennessee, Feb. 16th, 2002, Dr. James Dobson had this to say, “Unless we step in to defend our children and the families that produce them, everything that we care about will be lost including the opportunity to transmit our faith with the next generation.” Let’s listen to a several more startling excerpts.

“So they are teaching them that bisexuality is normal and homosexuality and heterosexuality are morally equivalent and they are teaching them many more other concepts. They are bringing Gays and Lesbians into the school to teach them what a normal thing this is and answer their questions. Of course, Christians can’t come in and counter that, that’s California. That is every school in California. Where in the world are the parents that are holding still for that? ... By the way 42% of 4th Grade boys in the entire country can’t read and yet we are going to teach them that.

“On Feb. 4, 2002, the American Academy of Pediatrics announced that Gay and Lesbian parents so called can raise and do raise children as effectively as stable marriages where husbands and wives are committed to each other. They had no data to back that up and stated that in the report that it is impossible to study this. What’s going on here? Pediatricians are conservative people….

“Feb. 14th, Secretary Colin Powell was on MTV and broadcast internationally and recommended that kids use condoms quote ‘Forget about taboos. Forget about conservative ideas. … It’s the lives of young people that are put at risk by unsafe sex and therefore protect yourself.’ What he didn’t tell them is that the Center for Disease Control, an arm of the Federal Government issued a report last year that the Press wouldn’t report on, that said condoms do not protect against syphilis … herpes and most of the other sexuality diseases….

“There is an almost total disregard for the value of human life in some post modern circles. Dr. Peter Singer is a bio-ethicist, of all things, at Princeton University. He is a tenured professor. Let me read you what he wrote. ‘Very often it is not wrong at all to kill a child once it has left the womb.’ He said, and watch the words now, ‘simply killing an infant is never equivalent to killing a person.’ That is a bio-ethicist … was granted tenure after he made these statements….

“You may remember Barbara Boxer, Senator from California on the floor of the Senate in debating partial-birth abortion said, ‘That a baby is not a baby until that child is taken home from the hospital.’ In other words, you can kill that baby in the hospital before it is time to take the baby home. This is where we are headed …
“It’s tough. It is hard speaking against the tide of public opinion, the media, the entertainment industry, the congress, the libraries, the professions, all of those forces that are making fun of us. You’re right. They are calling us religious right, and far right and religious extremists and it hurts. I can tell you at Focus on the Family, we had bloody animal part brought to the front door and had our building spray painted and that’s not fun. The easiest thing to do is to quit. But God has called us to stay in the field and we will do that as long as we have breadth in our bodies and I know those of you who are here will do the same.” All of this is a badge of honor for Focus on the Family!
