Christian conservative James Dobson has
compared the Supreme Court's ruling striking down gay marriage bans
in all 50 states to the Nazi brainwashing of children.
Dobson, the founder of Focus on the
Family, which he led until 2003, is the host of Family Talk with
Dr. James Dobson, which is broadcast on over 300 radio stations
nationwide.
Earlier this year, he predicted civil
war if the Supreme Court strikes down state bans on gay marriage.
In a newsletter to supporters this
week, Dobson said that the ruling would hurt children.
“I grieve over what will happen to
kids in public schools,” he
wrote. “They will be taught that right is wrong and wrong is
right, and that the teachings of Scripture are unreliable and
inaccurate. How unthinkable it is that in some states
kindergartners, barely out of babyhood, are being taught adult
perverse behavior that should never be discussed in the classroom.
Soon, publishers of public school textbooks throughout the country
will have to re-write and re-illustrate materials to make them
conform to the demands of Obergefell. It matters not that
these revisions will contradict the beliefs and convictions of
Christian parents. It has already become the law of the land in some
states.
Anything activists can dream up could
be imposed on our children by liberal judges. LGBT propaganda will
be blatantly taught to wide-eyed kids who are too young to understand
how they are being manipulated. There is no consideration that the
messages given will contradict the beliefs and convictions of
millions of parents. The wishes of moms and dads will have been
overridden and superseded by five Justices who have a better plan for
their kids.”
“This is not the first time in recent
history that children have been used as pawns in the hands of
tyrants.”
“I'm reminded of the words of German
dictator, Adolf Hitler, spoken as war in Europe approached. He said,
'Your child belongs to us already . . . what are you? You will pass
on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a
short time they will know nothing but this new community,'” he
added.
