James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, said that SpongeBob's creators have enlisted SpongeBob in a “pro-homosexual video,” in which he appeared with other children's television characters. The makers of the video, Dobson said, plan to mail it to thousands of elementary schools this spring to promote a “tolerance pledge” that includes tolerance for differences of “sexual identity.” Kansas City Star https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1324653/posts#comment Thu, 20 Jan 2005 15:25:31 GMT
