Dobson Dialogue

December 17, 2003

Well, that was a short deal. Ryan sent me an email last night. He apologized about not getting in touch sooner, but it was taking awhile for him to actually get the emails we had been sending [thanks for sending an email if you did so]. Ryan said he’d be posting a comment on my [...]

Ryan Dobson Countdown

December 15, 2003

A few days, Jeff Scott informed me that he could no longer communicate with me (per Multnomah’s request).

Profound Words from Another Dobson…

November 28, 2003

Excerpts from Ryan Dobson’s book “Be Intolerant: Because Some Things Are Just Stupid.”
“I’m totally intolerant. Totally, radically intolerant. Some people call me a narrow-minded, Bible-thumping, backward-thinking, fundamentalist white male bigot. In fact, it happens every day.”
“I’m intolerant. I’m not ignorant, but I am intolerant. I’m not a racist or a bigot, but I am intolerant. [...]
