"NOM" refers to the sound they wish they were making with a cock in their mouths.

Oh, I'm sorry, Orson, I thought people had a right to express disagreement, and decide for themselves what they want to spend their money on.

F*ck off Card, you hack.

Moooorrrmmaaaannnns iiiiinnnnnn ssspppppaaaaacccceeeeee.

shiatty shiatty human being, sucking kids into his cult by sneaky Mormon brainwashing in his shiatty scifi writing.

Because using your speech rights, which is about as American as you can get, is unamerican if you use them to criticize somebody involved with NOM. Okay.

Well, his writing sucks, so I expected he would be in favor of the gays....

Lee451: OSC's views on homnosexuality are no more radical than most of the views here on Christians/Conservatives.

/Call me wrong.

Homosexuality is natural, and something one is born as.

Christianity and Republicanism are learned behaviors that are most definitely evil and unnatural.

Card sits on the board of NOM and has said that gay marriage would herald "the end of democracy in America".

you know...i'm just gonna come out and say it.  I never liked 'Ender's game'.  I felt the ending was contrived.  but...he's a writer who's actually making money off his writing while i'm just a guy with several written stories and tabletop RPG campaigns and never gotten his files organized enough to actually submit anything.  So i'm not sure my opinion amounts to much.

oh, and writers should keep their politics in their stories and not make a big deal about 'em in public.  you still gotta sell books.  STFU and be a writer, avoid politics and write stories.

I don't see gays trying to turn everyone into raging homosexuals.  the evangelical christians tho...they sure do wanna impose their beliefs on the rest of this country.

I'd protest him for his shiatastic books and his obviously gay chipmunk face.

SacriliciousBeerSwiller: Wow, this guy is destroying his reputation right as his most well known book is about to go mainstream (with the film and all). What a schmuck.

Well, it's more that people are discovering what anybody who had been paying attention had known for a while. In that way it's pretty similar to the Chick-Fil-A fiasco, activists had been pushing the issue for a while and just like with Dan Cathy, he handed activists a gift-wrapped present. These old homophobes don't realize that the world doesn't agree with them anymore.

Uncle Tractor: How did "standing up for traditional marriage" morph into "no gay marriage?" In what way does same-sex marriage prevent people from having "traditional" (WTH that is) marriages?

I think I missed a turn somewhere.

Generally, people who "stand up for traditional marriage" believe that only so-called traditional marriage between a man and a woman is the only combination that should ever be allowed ever, because if two men or two women marry, their "traditional" marriages will be null and void and they will have to go out and gay marry the first person they find.

/or, because Jesus. whatever.

1000 Ways to Dye: His Homecoming series was cool. Except for the last book. It made absolutely no sense.
None.
Finishing an otherwise good series with a story as incomprehensible as "Earthborn" is reason enough for him to stop writing.

That's because that series was literally the Book of Mormon played out in space. From character names to plot resolutions.

quatchi: HempHead: he Enders Game movie comes out in December.

If I do end up watching it I'll take extra special care to make sure I do so in a way that does not profit Card.

Fark that jackhole.

I don't really care if OSC makes money off his own work.  sure, his personal politics are pretty bad...but he's got a right to his beliefs.

Jim_Tressel's_O-Face: chewielouie: Yeah, poopers were made for penises . . . naturally.


The animal kingdom apparently learned it from us, then.

DAMN THAT MARLON PERKINS!

The money he makes off of his works goes into NOM's coffers though.

You're wrong.  (Happy?)

Or are people passing laws to keep others from practicing religions they don't approve of?

Prop 8.

Yes, people are passing laws to try to make their religion legally superior.

Well, that's new...I think my point was proved at the same time I was proved wrong...or something...now I'm confused...

He created Battlestar Galactica?

Christians and Republicans seem hell bent on passing laws banning Islam.

studebaker hoch: chewielouie

God made man perfectly, in His Own Image.

As part of his intelligent design, he made men 100% compatible sexually.  We always have been, and we always will be.  There is nothing in the bible where either God or His Own Son say one word against gays.  We are perfect in the eyes of God.  That's why he loves us.

God doesn't make mistakes.

The creation of Adam is the first time the Bible does not say "and it was good" after the event.
