The Gay Bishop at the Center of the Anglican Storm
The Rt. Rev. Gene Robinson on tensions in Anglican Communion and his own controversial ministry
Corrected on 7/31/08: An earlier version of this article in one reference misstated the name of Bishop Gene Robinson.
What have been the reactions of bishops and others to your own informal activities in and around Canterbury?
I must say that my contact has been very limited because I am not allowed on the premises of any of the official gatherings. And the schedule is so full that I've not had much time to connect with my brothers and sisters in my own House of Bishops. But certainly the ones I've talked with are both encouraged with the deepening of relationships here as well as concerned about where this covenant process might be leading us.

It's very hard to be openly gay, lesbian or bisexual. They usually got harassed, beaten up, pushed around and called all kinds of slurs. They would say all sorts of horrible things for the wrong reasons.
So I think for GLBT, they'd better find some online community or something like that, to come out first, where they may feel support, happy, free, just like the one **BiLoves dotcom**. Also members there are very active. Hope you are the one.Ifyou come here frequently, you may find what you are looking easily and quickly.
no way..
I agree that there should not be a homosexual in the clergy because there is a fine line between what goes on in the world today in the church and what should not happen... Church has changed so much these days its as if the church is changing due to the influence of people that really do not need to have a say how it should change. I believe that the church should stay the same way it always has been.
It Is The Wish Of God That McCain Be Elected. Election Is Over.Part 2
By: Jordan C. Fan, Prophet Of Environment.
The whole American election boils down to just one (1) and only:
Battle Ground State = Armageddon (literary) = Maryland State.
The are only four possibilites:
(1) Obama got elected. Maryland vote for Obama. Naval Academy stay in Maryland.
(2) McCain got elected. Marylad vote for McCain. Naval Academy stay in Maryland.
(3) Obama got elected. Maryland vote against Obama. Naval Academy stay in Maryland. It not feasible for Obama to reloate the Academy because it generate income to the state of Maryland. Many Black live in Maryland. The only thing Obama can do is to send in his secret police and get rid of his Black traitors.
(4) McCain got elected. Maryland vote against McCain. McCain relocates the Naval Academy. The problem is Arizon is the most arrid or driest place in the U. S. The entire state is a desert and Grand Canyon. How can a Naval Academy locate in a place with no water? So during this election McCain can campaign by saying if him was elected and Maryland vote against him then he will relocate to the state where there is plenty of water. So where else but the Great Lake and Illinois. McCain can also suggest other Great Lake states such as Ohio, Michigan, New York, Wisconsin, or Minnesota depending on who are going to elect him. So people in Illinois will vote for McCain and Maryland will have no choice but also vote vote for McCain. Since Maryland is the Black Capital near the nation's Capital and Illinois is a Black State, if Obama loses there, then their is no way he can win this election. The main issue and prize for this election is nothing else but the Naval Academy in Maryland. The election is over, Amen!
