Christian religious fanatics are using this issue to persuade Americans that we should forget our constitution and practice prejudice. Believe me, they - Christian religious fanatics - are a tiny minority in the world wide protest on this matter. So tiny in fact that they are not even on the radar....

Oh, that book. It's been sitting in my massive "to be read" pile for a year or so. The "peoples" :D in one of my other more serious literary clubs really dissed it something awful. The general consus there was "don't bother". Described it as "phenomenally uninteres...
