It seems Dobson’s got himself quite a big head and thinks that Christianity is some kind of big union,

It is because of the 2004 election when people didn’t mind hearing him speak and getting the Republicans elected. Now that he is not saying what evangelicals want to hear, they are dropping him like a disease. Nice people. Maybe he will get back in 2012 when he agrees with every word the Evangelicals want him too. I am glad I am not an Evangelical (catholic). You guys put too much pressure on people.

Don’t know about the big head, but I never gotten that impression. Christianity is a big union or club. Its easy to join and it has great benefits. Everyone is welcome and the entry requirements are low.

“You guys put too much pressure on people”

Not really, we pretty much just ask that people follow Gods rules. Perhaps its Gods pressure you are feeling?

So everyone should follow him blindly just because he's James Dobson?
What if he started preaching from the Communist Manifesto?
What if he threw his support to Hillary Clinton or Barak Obama?
It's good to see Dobson smacked down when he says something unpopular with the people he claims to represent.
Why should evangelicals keep him around if he starts spouting off a bunch of nonsense?

Maybe he will get back in 2012 when he agrees with every word the Evangelicals want him too.
Nope, when people like him fall, they can never climb back up. Someone else will come to take his place.

"You guys"? I think you assume far too much!
