I cannot, and will not, vote for Senator John McCain, as a matter of conscience.
James Dobson

Prayer and dependence on God has been our history. How unfortunate it is now that an unaccountable and unelected and misguided judge from Wisconsin, Judge Barbara Crabb, has declared National Days of Prayer - established by the Congress - to be unconstitutional.
James Dobson
Image
There are very few certainties that touch us all in this mortal experience, but one of the absolutes is that we will experience hardship and stress at some point.
James Dobson
Image
My legacy doesn't matter. It isn't important that I be remembered. It's important that when I stand before the Lord, he says, 'Well done, good and faithful servant.' I want to finish strong.
James Dobson
Image
A child identifies his parents with God, whether or not the adults want that role. Most children 'see' God the way they perceive their earthly fathers.
James Dobson
Image
Homosexuals are not monogamous. They want to destroy the institution of marriage. It will destroy marriage. It will destroy the Earth.
James Dobson
Image
I don't blame homosexuals for being angry when people say they've made a choice to be gay because they don't.
James Dobson
Image
Morality and immorality are not defined by man's changing attitudes and social customs. They are determined by the God of the universe, whose timeless standards cannot be ignored with impunity.
James Dobson
Image
You have to work to keep love alive you have to protect it and maintain it, just like you would a delicate flower.
