The main problem with your critique of Dobson is that you do not allow room for a third position. There is a true sheep-protecting role as pastor that neither gives in to culture NOR gives in to the bullying of false “orthodoxy.” Your position has the overtone of “join us (in every detail of Calvinism) or you are a coward.” You are as dangerous as Dobson.

  Hi, Dan!
  
  I never mention Calvinism. In fact, I think someone can reject every distinctive of Calvinism and still be an orthodox Christian, a brother in Christ. I’m not sure what you’re basing your criticism on, frankly.
  
  All the best!
