Open Letter to Dr. James Dobson

Written by: Amanda K on Jun 27, 2008 4:31 PM EDT

As a family, we reach out to help those less fortunate than us.  Those not only who are deprived of food but spiritual guidance as well.  We are a modest family., with modest means.  We try to follow Jesus's teachings.  We tithe and give and fast.  We are pentacostal.  We are baptist.  We are Our GOD'S children.  We honor our troops.
Yet we do not want war and pray for those who push it.  We pray for those returning home.  We want children, including ours to have affordable healthcare.  We want children, including ours to have a qualaity education.  We want our children like our's to be more safe from the horrors of war,  and we want more equality for the masses.

We think Jesus wanted us all to follow these simple rules of love for one another.  We were brought up to believe that we should love our neighbor as ourselves.  This is scripture.
Judge Not lest ye be Judged?  This is Scripture as well.

Dr, Dobson, you will start being included in our prayers since you seem to be breaking one of the most dreaded things God hates the most.  Sowing discord among the bretheren, which of course is what you are doing when you call out and judge men who are promoting family values such as SenatorBarack Obama. 

I am not one of the Obamamaniacs.  If there is such a thing.  I am a conservative person who looks at the issues and decides who is best suited morally close to our own values and that person with the exception of a few personal things, is like our own value system.   That person is Barack Obama.  No candidate is perfect.  If that is what you are expecting, then you must wait until the  hereafter to find your perfect world with perfect answers.  We do beleive that strong drink......AND MONIES MADE FROM that is against our value system.  We believe pushing war and more war is against our value system.  A person who follows in lockstep with President Bush is against our value system.  Serving the rich and not the poor is against our value system.  The person not honoring our troops would be Senator McCain, so therefore he does not represent our value system.

Dr. Dobb, before you take  to the airwaves, I think you should Focus on your own values and family before you start preaching to the masses of things that clearly do not square up with YOUR OWN PERSONAL belief system.  You cannot cherrypick the Word of God to suit yourself.  Nor can we.  We have to live our faith and speak of our faith but in the end, we are accountable to only God and his grace.

If Sir, you feel you are anointed from GOD to speak your interpretation of GOD's will which I feel you think, then it is my job to tell you when you are clearly off the mark and need prayer.  When you start sowing discord among the brethern for political gain, you are not in the Will of God, but the will of man.

You are on our prayer list.

God bless

Sincerely Amanda Kato and Family
