Seriously, how in the name of all that is holy can a Mormon write the following sentence:

Marriage is older than government. Its meaning is universal: It is the permanent or semipermanent bond between a man and a woman, establishing responsibilities between the couple and any children that ensue.

My head almost exploded when I read that. Jesus ****ing Christ, that's stupid considering his religious beliefs, which are even stupider than Card is.

You have any idea how many IQ points I lost reading that whole column?

Did you notice that Card appears to be calling for the overthrow of the US government by violent means?

How long before married people answer the dictators thus: Regardless of law, marriage has only one definition, and any government that attempts to change it is my mortal enemy. I will act to destroy that government and bring it down, so it can be replaced with a government that will respect and support marriage, and help me raise my children in a society where they will expect to marry in their turn.

Uh oh. He better hurry up and fvckadude before he goes fertilizer shopping.

ok, i actually took the time to read some more, and i found these gems:

It's about grandchildren. That's what all life is about. It's not enough just to spawn -- your offspring must grow up in circumstances that will maximize their reproductive opportunities.

Biological imperatives trump laws. American government cannot fight against marriage and hope to endure. If the Constitution is defined in such a way as to destroy the privileged position of marriage, it is that insane Constitution, not marriage, that will die.

he's awful young to be a crazy old man talking to himself at the bustop

oh, this explains everything:

Orson Scott Card is a writer of nonfiction and fiction, from LDS works to popular fiction.

so he's a godly LRH

Remember how rapidly gay marriage has become a requirement. When gay rights were being enforced by the courts back in the '70s and '80s, we were repeatedly told by all the proponents of gay rights that they would never attempt to legalize gay marriage.

It took about 15 minutes for that promise to be broken.

I like this one. I am sure right after Stonewall and during the AIDS Crisis the hot button item was an issue that almost all of America knew existed: gays want the legal protection of marriage.

I think he's going to go to Uranus and find a joy he never thought possible.
