Character witness

Christian Century,  Sept 5, 2006  

CHARACTER WITNESS: James Dobson of Focus on the Family has come to the defense of Mel Gibson, apparently because Dobson believes that Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ is "one of the finest films of this era." While Dobson didn't condone Gibson's drunken tirade against Jews, he said Gibson is seeking help for his alcoholism, apologized profusely to the Jewish community for his anti-Semitic comments and asked for forgiveness.

"What more can he do?" asked Dobson, who has said he doesn't believe The Passion of the Christ is anti-Semitic (AP).
