Honestly, BT, I wish the headline simply read "Episcopalians OK Bishop" Sexual orientation should never have an issue.
Ok now I'm moving from my ideal little world that I live in to the real world. I would love to say that this is no big deal. What's done is done, but it's not. I am not an organized religion type anymore - I will admit that seminary WAS in my future at one time but I won't expound on that.
Personally, I think it's a step in the right direction. If ANY religion that preaches love and understanding can not do just that, more people will see it for what it's worth and decide on their own. This is see happening everyday and in my own life as well.
This argument/fight is not over by a long shot. As long as THIS bishop is alive and serves his congregation (no matter how well) someone somewhere will be waiting ready to pounce on the first thing he does that is perceived to be incorrect.
My two cents worth on this subject!
What's your feeling?
