Nothing new in this idea. Google search yields many sites that contend Jesus was either a homosexual or bisexual. From the same whackos who contend that Abraham Lincoln was light in the loafers.

Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson, the first openly
homosexual bishop of his denomination, has angered
traditionalist Anglicans by suggesting that Jesus
Christ might have been homosexual.
Robinson, who left his wife – and mother of his two
daughters – to cohabit with his male lover, Mark, made
his inflammatory remarks during an address
titled, "Homosexuality and the Body of Christ: Is There
a New Way?" at Christ Church of Hamilton and Wenham,
Massachusetts. The bishop was asked by a congregant how
Christians could both accept homosexuality and the
Bible's emphasis on redemption for sins.

Romans 1:20
Ever since the creation of the world his eternal power
and divine nature, invisible though they are, have been
understood and seen through the things he has made. So
they are without excuse;
21 for though they knew God, they did not honor him as God
or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their
thinking, and their senseless minds were darkened.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools;
23 and they exchanged the glory of the immortal God for
images resembling a mortal human being or birds or four-
ooted animals or reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them up
in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the degrading
of their bodies among themselves,
25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie
and worshiped and served the creature rather than the
Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions.
Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural,
27 and in the same way also the men, giving up natural
intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one
another. Men committed shameless acts with men and
received in their own persons the due penalty for their
error.
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God
gave them up to a debased mind and to things that should
not be done.
29 They were filled with every kind of wickedness, evil,
covetousness, malice. Full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit, craftiness, they are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-
haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil,
rebellious toward parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32 They know God's decree, that those who practice such
things deserve to die—yet they not only do them but even
applaud others who practice them.
1 Corinthians 6:9
Surely you know that the wicked will not possess God's
Kingdom. Do not fool yourselves; people who are immoral
or who worship idols or are adulterers or homosexual
perverts.
Seems like the global Anglican community will indeed have a scism--the American branch of Anglicanism would rather follow the ways of the world than the ways of God.
This is so sad...
You knew it was just a matter of time before she said something like this.
The gays have to read gay into every bachelor. Cheeeeeeeez!
Robinson gives new meaning to the word 'bishopric'.
Five bucks says Li'l Andy Sullivan enthusiastically endorses this "theory" on his site, within the week. Any takers...? :)

Probably already has endorsed it. See post #10.
Jesus might have been homosexual, says the first openly gay bishop
He really said that?
Just when you think these people couldn't sink any lower.....
Old Gene has been resading too much Andrew Sullivan, and like others of his ilk does not think with the head on his shoulders.
When I first read Wonkette on Andrew Sullivan, I thought she was being overly crude... now I am having a change of heart. I wish she would get on Gene Robinson's case.
Warm butter, that's just so eloquent. Lucifer is the light- bringer tough guy.
