“This is an old article that has been posted repeatedly.
If you read the original — not the one from WND — you’d see that it was written in a playful tone, not critical whatsoever of Thompson.”
This is not an “old article” but recent developments upon a on the same subject. This article is not against Fred and neither am I. This article corrects misconceptions that Dobson reportedly said and adds evidence of Fred’s involvement in the Church of Christ. I have no idea what article that you refer to that had the “playful tone.”
The original article that had a playful tone was the Harding University professor’s blog post that this WND article and others have quoted. See post #56 in this thread.
