i love this part
"Unlike so many respectable, God-fearing creatures, the Telia felina reproduces asexually, openly mocking traditional family values by giving birth to and raising its young in a single-parent setting," Chester said. "This anti-Christian anemone, which has the audacity to think that a child can grow up properly without the benefit of two loving parents, is truly the Murphy Brown of the deep."

That could very well be one of the funniest articles/preachings I've ever heard. I'm thinking a nice HOF donation to their 'collection plate' might be in order.

Jon, the clownfish is ok. They don't say they have problems with transgendered creatures, just bisexual anemones
