They probably assumed the planet was full of gays, Jews, and unsubmissive women. Fundies like them think violence is wrong (unless it's done in the name of God).

Man, I actually agree with this guy! If you strip out the scriptural ranting and raving, which doesn't start until the last paragraph in the first section, it's a halfway-decent review. I found this line particularly funny:

Now, Star Trek is just something to watch when there is nothing else better to do such as get a root canal or clean the rain gutters.

Ain't that the truth ...

Heh.

Normal person: "OMG, they blew up a planet!! Evil bastards!!"
Fundie: "It was probably full of Jews and gays anyway, that's the only reason I can think of why someone would blow up a planet. And don't say God's name in vain!"
