So Orson Scott Card, a man whose work I have really really enjoyed in the past, has gone and proved himself a complete and utter prat. He posted his opinion piece on Mormon Times stating the greatest threat to democracy in this country is gay marriage being legalized by the courts in Massachusetts and California.

"The first and greatest threat from court decisions in California and Massachusetts, giving legal recognition to "gay marriage," is that it marks the end of democracy in America."
His diatribe proves himself deliberately ignorant of both nature and history. I say deliberately ignorant because he is not by nature a stupid man. He has demonstrated some smarts in his writing. This is him pretending not knowing what he does know for his "faith". A faith which cannot stand the test of views counter to it is not worth having.
