If you have never read
misia's LJ, you oughta. She's a writer with seemingly infinite writing energies. Regarding the current flap over gay marriage, she wrote a letter to Bush:

I saw Pat Robertson on CNN talking about how gay marriage will lead to bestiality, child marriage, father-son marriage, and so on. Far-right religious conservatives seem to beleive this, too, even though it is illegal to fornicate with kids or ponies or anyone who is intellectually incapable of agreeing to sexual union. I mean, come on.
I doubt not for one minute that Robertson would be okay with several of those definitions of marriage that misia listed. Creepy guy.
Best,
Chris

"The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism, and become lesbians."

Another favorite factoid about the Man of God in question is that he has been buddy-buddy with several African dictators, and maintained an interest in the diamond mines of the Congo. If you know anything about the conditions of workers in the diamond mines, you'll see what a truly depraved cynic this s.o.b. is.
