No, you're stupid because you're making a dick of yourself *****ing and 
moaning about it, instead of (for instance) asking more politely "What, 
really?" and discovering (as others have in this thread) that Lawrence
read 
the Blish Star Trek novels as a teenager, so his not having read A CASE OF

CONSCIENCE says nothing whatsoever about his character.

That's also a bunch of crap. I'm "roasting" Wolfspawn, if that's what you 
want to call it, because he's being an enormous dumb **** about his
perverse 
interpretation of Martin. I don't care if he likes Martin or not, I'm just

confronting the utter reeking crap he spouts about it.

I'm quite interested in Blish, because religious themes in fiction are a 
"professional" interest of mine. Personally, though, I'll get to it when I

get to it.
