Here's what Nile Rodgers, who produced the purportedly pro-gay video said:Personally, I think any video that contains Sister Sledge constitutes cruelty, and may backfire. >:)"The fact that some people may be upset with each other peoples' lifestyles, that is O.K.," Mr. Rodgers said. "We are just talking about respect."
I'm all for tolerance, I tolerate the homosexual life style, I just do not want the government overtly supporting it and propagandizing us about it. On that basis, I think Dr. Dobson is wrong about this.
Seriously, my problem with the video is less with its producers than with the idea of using it to indoctrinate schoolkids. I suspect it will be used in violation of the Hatch Amendment, which requires positive parental consent for any child to see it, or be exposed to the program surrounding it.
Dobson seemed to go further, endorsing the wierd "Sponge Bob promotes gayness" concept.
In a free society, the culture is what individuals make it, through their choices. Attempts to suppress it are dangerous, and incompatible with liberty. The only exception is when non-consenting individuals are harmed or wrongly exploited.
