"Wonderfully written"??!! She (the author) has a HUGE chip on her shoulder regarding her homosexuality, and if you don't want to kiss her feet, you may then kiss her ass. She alluded to that quite strongly, as in she "knew" what he really thought, and was an idiot because he misunderstood the particular context of a word she had used. Basically, since Card does not approve of homosexuality, he is a demon and it was her DUTY to expose him for the evil he is. The bonus was, she didn't even have to ask him questions regarding her opinions, as she already knew what he meant, and all that he was about. Additionally, she holds the common fantasy of peaceful humanity; violent action is NEVER warranted. ALL wars served only to destroy the lives of fishermen and artists. Tell that to the Jews released from the German concentration camps, or the Chinese who survived the Japanese occupation from the same period. I'd like to tell her, should I ever find her being beaten by some homo-hating skinhead, that I'd like to help but violence is NEVER acceptable, but I couldn't. I'd have to help. Even if I didn't particularly agree with some of her views.
