I seriously think that Ryuukishi didn't have at all the grandiose intents most people seem to be giving him when writing Umineko.
He got an idea, to make a story that would be like Umineko is, and it took shape as Umineko.
You don't make a niche doujin Visual Novel if you're trying to make a masterpiece that sends out a message to the masses and/or Classical Mystery Fans of the west.
Many of the claims I see sounds to me as if christians took offence of a serie such as evangelion and thought it was aimed at them.
I wonder if any other series on Animesuki is subject to such a severe and serious treatment.
