I normally try to stay out of the religious topics on Dlive b/c emotions run so high but I cant seem to keep my mouth shut today.

First I want to say that I am a christian but I am growing weary of our christian leaders. I hate those Sunday mornings when our pastor gives us the what is wrong with the world sermon, I am sure you heard it in a sermon or sunday school or christian radio. It covers things like gay marriage, the decay of moral values, the spread of false religions, etc. I feel that Dr Dobson falls into this category of telling believers what is wrong with the world but not telling non believers about the way to salvation. If we christians were doing a better job of leading the lost to christ we wouldnt have to worry about the "what's wrong with this country" issues.

If Dr Dobson, who is the foremost christian family counseling expert, had turned the other cheek and met with Obama to talk about his bible views in private, perhaps Obama would be a better presidential candidate. Instead Dobson chose to go public and tell everyone that Obama was distorting the Bible. Imagine you invited your neighbor to church with you and then marched to the pulpit to confess all your neighbors transgressions, do you think your neighbor would go back to church with you?
