REPENT? For What?

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – The first openly gay Episcopal bishop said Wednesday that the church’s top policymaking body should not heed a request from Anglicans worldwide to place a moratorium on electing gay or lesbian bishops.

“Jesus is the ‘homosexual agenda’ in the Episcopal church, I believe that with my whole heart,” Robinson said. “My agenda is to speak the witness that I know of this living, loving God, who loves me for all I am and all that I was created to be.”

Episcopal leaders have never apologized for confirming Robinson; those who support ordaining gays contend the Bible does not bar monogamous same-gender relationships. But the denomination’s leaders have repeatedly expressed regret for the turmoil his 2003 election caused.

FIFTH.

Sorry. But … do you really want to hurt me?

Okay. Okay! I’d better stop. Now back to the Convention as Gene sees it:
