    You're perfectly free to pressure the company back. I'm fine with nobody getting it.

    What the fuck are you even talking about? How did zombies come into this? All I know is, I have no difficulty disguishing the religious nuts and zealots from the non-nuts and zealots, and I certainly don't think the majority of businesses are run by religious nuts.

    And it's my own fucking business if I try to make him pay for it.

    Uh...no. Just because someone is religious does not make them a religious nut. And I'm not really sure where you got the idea that I think they are.

    Are you seriously deluded enough to think that most businesses ARE owned by religious nuts?

    So that he donates millions to extremely anti-gay political groups is what? Just shrugged off as artistic license? This guy doesn't just shoot off his mouth every now and then you know, he's one of the major movers in the Morman anti-gay political movement.

    Because the two things are entirely the same. Asshat.

    Or just leave marriage alone, let states conduct civil marriages, let churches decide for themselves who they want to discrimnate against, and then ignore them when they whine about the secular marriages.

    I'm pretty sure someone of your ilk would have no trouble screaming about Hollywood liberals and trying to hurt them economically. Free market, bitches.

    Except that it's a Superman story, so...not so much self-publishing.

    Um....pressuring the company to avoid running it and boycotting it are the same things. Nobody told you you can't read it. Call OSC and ask him for a copy.

    Purported. So, you dispute his having the degree in the first place. How about this. You read his complete article, then show (with math and illustrations) why it can't possibly work.

    Because there's no possible middle ground, right? It's either destroy every other form of life (barring a few exceptions we can exploit) or else it's go back to living in caves. No possible other solution.
