	James Dobson: Leader of the `Focus on the Family' cult
		Dobson, long on loyal radio listeners and short on patience, was threatening, in effect, to bring down the GOP unless it made conservative social issues, including abortion, a higher legislative priority.
		Dobson is very much the son, grandson, and great-grandson of Nazarene evangelists, a denomination known both for moral sternness--no movies or makeup--and for the emotional openness of the camp meeting.
		Dobson stresses the need for fathers to be fully engaged in the life of their family, in contrast to the distant breadwinners of the past.

		DOBSON: I believe the scripture makes it clear that Jesus Christ came to provide a remedy for sin and to be a savior to those who would believe on His name and that through Him, they would be saved.
		DOBSON: Yes, I think the materialistic way of life, the pace of living, the belief in moral relativism that says there is no right and wrong, there is no good or bad, there's no evil, there's nothing immoral.

		Dobson's fear may in part be a form of projection - that is to say, he is afraid that others are trying to do to him and his views just that which he would like to do to everyone else.
		Dobson's peddling of fear is not due simply to an overactive imagination or sheer paranoia (which he does suffer from), but because Dobson communicates in the language of emotion rather than reason.
		James Dobson is unquestionably a threat to basic American liberties - he cares naught for what others want to do with their lives, instead preferring that we simply follow the path he would lay out for us.

	James Dobson: Dog Abuser
		Dobson is behaving like a toddler who throws a violent tantrum if his "bedtime ritual" isn't adhered to down to the slightest detail.
		Dobson says that his Focus On the Family organization is engaged in a "new civil war" in which the "forces of Light" (child hitters, homophobes, Operation Rescue, would-be censors, etc.) are pitted against the "forces of Darkness" (antispankers, gays and lesbians, Planned Parenthood, free speech advocates, etc.).
		Dobson even views some crying babies as "little dictators" engaged in a bid to control and enslave their parents, and advises parents not to let the child "win" by picking up the child and soothing it.

		Contrary to what he claims, we demonstrate that some of Dobson’s basic assumptions and many of his specific teachings actually originated from secular psychological theorists whose opinions are based on godless foundations.
		Dobson’s gospel of self-esteem and psychology is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ; it is neither theologically nor academically supported.

	Evangelicals, Christian right, Republicans, James Dobson, Rudy Giuliani \| Salon
		When James Dobson warns that he will lead evangelical conservatives and other "values voters" in a third-party revolt if the Republican Party nominates Rudolph Giuliani for president -- as the Focus on the Family president warned in Thursday's New York Times -- it is hard to suppress a cynical smirk.
		For many months, Dobson allies such as Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council, have warned that Giuliani is "far from the mainstream" and unacceptable to them, but their search for a competitive candidate has failed -- while Giuliani has continued to dominate in both national polls and fundraising.
		Whether Dobson is serious about a third party or not may become clearer at his upcoming "Values Voters Summit," a mini-convention of religious-right activists that will convene in Washington on Oct. 20, with appearances by nearly every Republican presidential hopeful (except Giuliani and Thompson).

	WorldNetDaily: Dr. James Dobson, 'evangelical devil'
		Dobson doesn't believe that "all roads lead to God, or peace, or love." Dr. Dobson actually might believe in such a thing as absolute truth.
		First, to the point being made by the "Reverend." It would be completely disingenuous for someone like Dobson – who is advocating for the cause of healthy families – not to address the greater societal factors that lead to the breakdown of the family.
		To assert falsely, as the "Rev." Gaddy does that it is a move to acquire political power is to deny that the eventual outcome that Dr. Dobson seeks is still that of a healthy family.
