My essay in the WisCon Chronicles about religion

[izzybelbooks]

This post is a response to comments in the WisCon LJ about my essay in the WisCon Chronicles, Vol. 4.  It is very long, and even includes a p.s. and excerpts from panel descriptions at the end.

Full descriptions for the panels that caused offense

I was curious to find out what the full descriptions of those panels whose descriptions you & others found offensive. I think it would be useful to include them in full, for context, especially for those like me who weren't there and do not have the pocket programs at hand for reference. Took me a while to locate the archives for WisCon 33, but here they are:

Thanks for posting these. I was using my pocket program and I didn't think to go to the archives!

You expanded the quotations in your entry without marking the edits. But you keep leaving out the "As an atheist" start of the sentence from panel 60.

I haven't edited the entry, so I'm not sure to what you're referring.
