If you think God exists and moreover this superintelligent creator of the 
universe doesn't like gay marriage, you're religious.

This is a mailing list for people who want to grow tails, sprout wings, switch 
sexes, grow new sex organs, create new sexes, and upload themselves into 
Jupiter Brains.  If you can't handle the concept of gay marriage, then what 
the hell are you doing here?

PS:  Let the record show that this is the person who chided me for not being 
open-minded when I expressed dissatisfaction with David Stiger's posting 
quality.  (Ad hominem tu qoque.)
