Have to share these two links posted on monkeygroup awhile back.
Read The Hypocrites of Homosexuality An essay Card wrote in 1990.
And this interview he did for Salon in 2000. LOL....the interviewer is a militant Jewish lesbian . Ummmm.....wooops.
I cannot believe this guy wrote a novel as cool and amazing as Ender's Game. I'm glad I read it before I found out some of his other views.
Oh - btw. Are there any Mormons or jack-Mormons on my flist? If you are, please check out the following quote from the first link:
We Latter-day Saints know that we are eternal beings who must gain control of our bodies and direct our lives toward the good of others in order to be worthy of an adult role in the hereafter. So the regulation of sexual drives is designated not just to preserve the community of the Saints but also to improve and educate the individuals within it. The Lord asks no more of its members who are tempted toward homosexuality than it does of its unmarried adolescents, its widows and widowers, its divorced members, and its members who never marry. Furthermore, the Lord even guides the sexual behavior of those who are married, expecting them to use their sexual powers responsibly and in a proportionate role within the marriage.
Just out of curiosity - what guidelines does the Lord prescribe for married Mormons and the use of their 'sexual powers?' Is there a list of approved positions?
