The technical term is, I believe, "compensation delusion."
The fantasy that ALL famous figures in history were homosexual attempts to validate the orientation as not only normal but "exceptional" and something to be "desired." A slightly schizoid variation of the childhood theme "I'm better than you are."
there is. satan.
Unfortunately that's pretty obvious, compounded by his statement that he's looking for ways to interpret scripture to support his ways.
He will know for sure come Judgement Day.
It seems like this is not as strict a requirement as it once was in some denominations.

I guess just like the US Constitution, the Bible is a "living document" subject to the whims and changes of who ever happens to be reading/interpreting it. I don't understand why they feel the need to sexualize Him. He didn't come here to be the Dr. Ruth of the new milleneum, He had much more important things to do and it's pretty obvious people already knew how to have sex. Besides, there were plenty of women in His ministry, I don't think his choices would have been limited to 12 guys. What an idiot.

Yeah, but gay clergy has been around all along, I mean all the abuse throughout the world. And I'll bet ten times that number of clergy are gay, they just don't abuse anyone.
"So, basically, what he's saying is he doesn't know anything about Jesus."
Seems to be the qualification for being inducted into the priesthood in the Anglican/Episcopalian church these days!
The wicked men of Sodom attempted a homosexual rape of two messengers from God who had come to visit Lot. As a result of this and other widespread wickedness, God destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah in a storm of fire and brimstone.
If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. Leviticus 20:13)
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. ( 1st Corinthians 6:9-11)
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-- who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. ( Romans 1:25-27)
Just a few places in the Bible that mention
homosexuality..What is so scary to me is this Gene Robinson, is being allowed to preach to people about God and he is making up his stories to suit his own filthy belief.
BINGO!
HEAR! HEAR!
It's pretty bad when the devil breaks into your house ... but when you hold the door for him ....
Except that the "church of scientology" is at least consistent with their book.
What a nut! When I read lunacy like this I'm so glad the Catholics had a strong, conservative pope for the past twenty-odd years. Hope they get another.
Beware False Prophets.
Satan may have already lost the big battle - Jesus told us he was already condemned, but don't rest too easy about Satan being ineffectual. God allows Satan to reign on Earth and force us to make a choice. God will not let Satan actively kill us, but He allows the evil one to influence others through evil whispers and lies. Gene Robinson just happens to be one of Satan's willing minions and is helping to fulfil the prophesy that the churches will become apostate during the end times.
" Jesus might have been gay ..."
Then again , he might not have been gay ...
