I am thinking of making a new Group
I am disturbed by the outright LIES that Focus on the Family and it's affiliated groups are spinning.

I am upset as I think about what to do, I can't think straight about this.

A mixture of emotions boils and bubbles within me. Anger at the liars, sadness knowing that people will believe them, and hope thinking that I could succeed.

What should I do?

1. Who knows?
It's hard to fight such raw hatred. A group that can counter Dobson would be called anti-Christian and thus ignored. Best to try people you know and get them to see that Dobson's "research" is just his way of getting money from people that can't determine good research from bad.

2. Get some sleep...
and don't kill yourself over it.

If not these guys, someone else will do the lying and propaganda, and there's little you can do about it yourself unless you buy a TV network.

Lies, bullshit and propaganda are always with us, and if we can't stop them, the best we can do is keep ourselves informed.
