You are entitled to your opinion, but your remarks couldn't be farther from the truth. James Dobson has stood up for family values way before it was cool to do so by our so-called family values politicians, and he took the heat for it.

His buildings are no more opulent than any other corporate office building. I've been there. Other than a nice lobby and a nice executive area, all of the furnishings and finishes are tasteful, easy to maintain, and not ostentatious. And I've built, designed, and managed such office buildings for 20 years.

Dr. Dobson has an open history of standing up for what he believes is right. And that record has been public since 1977. His opinions are neither manipulative nor untruthful as you seem to suggest. I've seen firsthand the generosity of his organization, especially to the over 3,000 crisis pregnancy canters across the nation. More so than many other Christian organizations.

Jesus said something about the log in one own's eyes. Find a mirror quick.

uhhh....no thank you. I have lived in Colorado Springs for over 20 years, met Dobson, toured his facilities, chatted with him, etc. I know about Kevin Tobedo's proposition that was designed to be anti-gay and unconstitutional in order to thwart the gays moving into Colorado Springs, then the courting of Christian groups to move in.

I know far more about Dobson and his business ventures than you have assumed. Your minimizing Dobson's property is weak. He follows Je$u$, takes the funds, and builds beyond what is necessary. I guess the "Show" makes him more and more money. In all fairness, the Catholics are worse. Why is it that religions like to flaunt wealth?

Another question: Why is Glen Eyre restricted to religious fundamentalists? It's a historic spot, and the zelots have taken it over!

Have you ever considered how Dobson has hurt his causes?

I am against religious professionalism. It reminds me of a professional sex person. Not much difference, except the prostitutes can prove their premise.

Dobson's Focus and the Family reminds me of the Russian's copy of the B-29 bomber, but Dobson copied the Mormons. At least he should give them the credit they deserve! Aren't there mirrors at Dobson's?
