This is a link to Orson Scott Card's latest rant about gay marriage and the supreme court. Feelings which I was blissfully ignorant of until this morning.

I knew that Mr. Card is a Mormon. I have no problem with that. I respect his feelings on the constitution and the supreme court.
What's giving me chills is a response that is pretty much taking the words right out of my own head:

"Ender's Game" was the first novel that I ever read. I read it when I was 9 years old and I've read it several times since. Whenever I get into a discussion with someone who hasn't read it but expresses an interest, I always go out and buy them a fresh copy.
Maybe I'm overeacting, I know. I think my favorite geek Rick Emerson said it best:
"Chills.
"When heroes go down," sang Suzanne Vega, "they go down fast."
Aaron "Geek in the City" Duran weighs in on the recent anti-gay-marriage comments made by celebrated author Orson Scott Card. Rarely have I seen a sense of deep betrayal put in such stark, emotional terms."
