Dobson: Obergefell fight not about marriage

Fundamentally, he contends, it’s a way to open up vast new avenues to attack Christianity.

 

Dobson, who founded the highly influential groups Family Research Council and Focus on the Family, and now runs Family Talk. charges in his current monthly newsletter that the Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision is “an expression of hostility toward people who take their Christianity seriously.”

 

He says the decision by five justices, including two who effectively endorsed “same-sex marriage” while the case was pending, will prove disastrous for America.

 

His view is supported by the four dissenting justices, who warned that the decision had no connection to the U.S. Constitution and likely will be used to attack Christianity.

 

Dobson writes: “We are convinced that this unconstitutional decision, issued by five unelected, unaccountable and imperious justices, will ultimately prove to be as catastrophic as Dred Scott v. Sanford in 1857 and Roe v. Wade in 1973. It will touch every dimension of culture.”

 

He is referring to the decisions that said blacks were not fully human and that society has a right to kill unborn children for any reason.

 

“This court decision is not about same-sex marriage, except only tangentially. Many gay and lesbian groups have admitted that marriage has never been their primary objective. Instead, it is about everything else,” he writes.
