Dr. Dobson: Holding Hands = bad role mode for kids

These people are so full of shit. Seriously.
BBC: US right attacks SpongeBob video

James Dobson and the whole Fucus on the Family crew is seriously misguided. I've seen him in a video taped lectures explaining how feminism is destroying women and their families for example...

What the Fuck is so wrong about kids watching a video where two characters hold hands anyway? These christian organizations love to preach about loving one another until it comes to their kids watching two boys hold hands...

Hell, Bert and Ernie cohabited on "Sesame Street"! *outrage*

"Manipulating and brainwashing kids?" Kinda like that whole 'Be good or you'll go to hell' thing? Sure, we can fill their heads with antiquated superstiton, but trying to teach tolerance and acceptance is brainwashing? Bastards

"Shut up and bend over, Ernie!"
"Awwwww, Bert..."

This sounds about as plausible as saying Spongebob is trying to advance the usage of diaphragms as contraception.

It brings a whole new meaning to "spongeworthy"

When Spongebob blows Patrick, they'll have a reason to complain. As it is, hand-holding isn't exclusive to the pink side of the fence, especially when we're talking about children. I'm guessing this guy doesn't cry, either, because "it's gay."

Dear Dr. Dobson,

Focus on your own damn family.

Sincerely, eat shit,
and die.

I thought Spongebob was a spokesperson for the gay because he's happy and laughing all the time. He looks pretty gay to me.

Lol, u cried.....ghey!

It's kind of revealing of a perverted mindset, too, isn't it? What kind of person looks at children holding hands and sees something sexual in it? A pervert.

Fundies like Dobson are a tightly wrapped bundle of projection. They see sex and depravity everywhere because that's all they think about. If they just wacked off a little more often, they might calm down a bit.

So when I hold hands with my sister it's incest, right? When I hold my niece and nephew's hands it's pedophilia?

Lookout! Child pornography!

I'm sure Dobson is still feeling pangs of guilt from that 1963 Playboy he kept stashed under his bed.

I love how the pic of spongebob is captioned "Spongebob is popular among adult gay men".

I hear Cowboys are pretty popular among adult gay men, but you don't see me picketing rodeos.

Is anyone really surprised? I think they're just so paranoid that they just see it everywhere now. I mean, when you've got right-wing fundie nutbars protesting at mr. rogers' funeral, because by saying "You're great just the way you are" he's saying it's ok to be gay, you know they're starting to crack (or smoke the crack, or lick it. Whichever.).

What is so scary about gay men, I wonder?

The Bible talks about people coveting. Where the witchhunt for the Covet'ers, dammit!

(PS - I always enjoy watching the way the fundamentalists use the Old Testament to excuse their beliefs, as though the whole point of Christ's scrafice wasn't to save humans from being turned into pillars of salt, or washed away by giant floods...)

You know what's odd?? The more people wear their intolerance on their sleeve, the more I hate them, and then I am the one who is intolerant.

The more vocal and stupid the religious right becomes, the more I hate them. Just like they hate the gay community.

So, I'm going to try to stop this, and say that I don't hate Dobson. I think he's a misguided, out-of-touch, scared little man. And I feel sorry for him and his family and those who take his word as truth. And now I want to

Thank god I didn't hear about this when it was happening - I would have gone soooo balistic.

I hate stuff like this., how can you teach children to love one another and not have prejudices if they cant even hold hands.

Remember this fiasco? It kinda smells the same.

A few close-minded loser-ass group sucks say something stupid and the BBC takes it to mean all conservatives are gol'darned fool fucks. Just to be clear, they aren't, right?

Uh-oh...Jesus is an icon for gay men.

Seriously. You'd think they'd at least pick on people breaking actual commandments. But I guess they'd see a quick drop in attendence if they started holding adulterer's feet to the fire.

And crosses around the neck? Jesus sculptures on your wall? Graven images baby, it's never too late for another iconoclasm.

And hey, sucker... Feel good about taking the day off on Sunday? Well the Sabbath is actually Saturday - another commandment broken.
