[edit] Overview

Orson Scott Card is a world-renowned American author, primarily of science fiction and fantasy. He also writes extensively on political subjects, generally from a somewhat moderate-conservative point of view although he is apparently a registered Democrat.

Card is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (aka the Mormons), and Mormon themes are often found in his work.

• 2007-12-09 "Whatever Became Of Orson?", or Another Victim Of The Brain-Eater: "Basically, for those of you who didn't know, Orson Scott Card, multiple-award-winning author of Ender's Game and Speaker For The Dead, has in recent years written about how homosexuality is a sin and should be illegal, along with several other political/religious positions which, let's just say, don't endear him to the vast majority of SF fans."
