88 is in reference to Lane's 88 Precepts:
http://www.resist.com/Articles/literature/88PreceptsByDavidLane.htmThe media has got this wrong over and over again.
The fucking idiots who scream and yell and panic about this shit can suck my cock.
While i do not subscribe to most of Lane's points, America still freely allows folks to prohibit basic civil rights to gays and lesbians etc. because of religious belief, and they get a pass. There are plenty observant jews, muslims etc. who would not for a moment consider marrying outside of their circle. This is much ado about nothing....
