Good synopsis here.

Aside-
I still wonder about "the rest of the story" on Mrs. Robinson (aka Norma McCorvey of the future). As a female, it is hard for me to swallow the fact that everything is so copasetic with her Holy Husband leaving her for another man. It just smells of ...dishonesty.
And the email touchy feely pal who almost threw the whole election by fessing up that he was manhandled by
Bishop Monogomous. He disappeared; good chance he was telling the truth. And all those boards that entice "questioning young males" into that ministry he started...
It is a lot more fun to float away on a sacred hi-church Episcopal Cloud every Sunday than to face these truisms.

re: Mrs. Robinson - my understanding of the situation is that the other side is primarily interested in keeping her comfortable and insulated from any contact with those not in favor of homosexual 'rights'...and apparently so far she's been playing along.

The story behind that is simple: The charges are most likely true, and very possibly not unique. However, Frank Griswold sent his strong-arm lawyers to have a little chat with the young fellow, and not surprisingly, he collapsed like a house of cards when they literally threatened him with immense lawsuits and other assorted nastiness.

At least one other person involved in that imbroglio was likewise threatened, but this fellow was lucky enough to have top cover, and to be known as a tenacious fighter in his own right. Griswold's goons backed off from their threats, and actually apologized after they realized he'd called their bluff.

That's what "inclusiveness" means in Frank Griswold's church.
