Now, Dr. Dobson said, SpongeBob’s creators had enlisted him in a “pro-homosexual video,” in which he appeared alongside children’s television colleagues like Barney and Jimmy Neutron, among many others. The makers of the video, he said, planned to mail it to thousands of elementary schools to promote a “tolerance pledge” that includes tolerance for differences of “sexual identity.”
This is a real pity for me, because Focus on the Family truly could play a positive role in promoting intact families (and many of its programs do just that). But I can’t help but think that in the last year they have gone completely off the rails - blurring the line between nonprofit and political action committee (possibly in violation of their nonprofit status), publishing the address of Michael Moore, and now joining Jerry Falwell in the crusade against children’s television.
Note to Focus on the Family: intolerance is NOT a good family value.
On this late eve before Mr. Bush is re-inaugurated President of the United States, I feel it is appropriate to echo the wise words of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.:
“Today there is no longer a choice between violence and nonviolence. It is either nonviolence or nonexistence.”
I sincerely wish Mr. Bush understood the truth behind this statement. I pray that he does before it is too late.
