Evangelical leader quits after gay sex allegation

Don't group those people in with Dobson. He's a little too strong for my tastes sometimes, but he's not a "God hates fags" type of person. I'm an evangelical Christian, and I don't know anybody who respects Falwell on any level.

He's not? In my opinion, Dobson is pretty hateful.

I've always thought Dobson to be one of those, "God loves you, but homosexuality is a sin", type people. If he's said really hateful things, I don't think I've heard them.

Oh yeah Dobson is an enlightened preacher alright

I'm sorry but anyone who preaches the natural role of the woman/wife is subservient to the husband or father; or preaches that homosexuality is "curable"; or can preach all about sexual morality and homosexuality being a sin - then turn around and defend Foley... somes across as either a hyprocrite or a throwback.

Either which way though, he's a fundamentalist; and I don't trust nor like fundamentalists of any stripe or flavour - faith should be approached with an open heart and mind, not closed ones.
