Out of the Closet; Into the Church
Homo McGreevey Finds Higher Calling
What does a gay governor do after he resigns from political office in disgrace? He becomes an Episcopalian and enters the priesthood.
Jim McGreevey, the former New Jersey love gov, has gone from Turnpike truck stops to All Saints Church in Hoboken, where he is known as Father Jim.
Last Sunday, the ex governor administered the sacrament of baptism to a bevy of babies, blessed the Eucharist, and carried the cross during the processional.
In 2004, Mr. McGreevey resigned as Governor of New Jersey after revealing that he is gay and has had an adulterous relationship with another man.
At the time of his resignation with his wife by his side, Democratic Gov. McGreevey said: "At a point in every person's life, one has to look deeply into the mirror of one's soul and decide one's unique truth in the world, not as we may want to see it or hope to see it, but as it is. And so, my truth is that I am a gay American.
The gay American enrolled in a master of divinity program at the General Theological Seminary of the Episcopal Church in Chelsea in 2007. As part of his education, he started an 18-month training program at All Saints in April and is expected to stay until his graduation next spring.

It’s not even a church anymore, just another political organization - and a nauseating one at that. I finally couldn’t deal anymore and bailed.

Is it just me or does he look too much like Ralm Emanuel?

He was going to rest stops on the N.J. Tpke. & having what a former Pres. said was not sex through holes in the panels separating the stalls. I don’t know if he was a pitcher or a catcher in this game but he did play on a pro level. He was probably good at both positions.

Let's face it, the real reason why he resigned is because impending corruption scandals and a threat of prosecution for bribery and corruption, he was Macceavelli.

I dont know if he was a pitcher or a catcher in this game but he did play on a pro level. He was probably good at both positions. Just because he liked to play ball, doesn't mean he had a decent batting average or ERA; probably also had an unusually high rate of fouls.
He did seem to be fairly proficient at sliding home, even though most of his hits were single-baggers.
Didn't most of his games get rained out?
Now that he has changed leagues, one has to wonder if he is still a starter; or is just mostly a bench warmer or designated runner. Maybe even just a bat boy.

He hid behind his gayness.....McGreevey resigned b/c of impending corruption scandals and the threat of prosecution for bribery and corruption..... he was Machiavelli...... Thanks for the links. As one 2004 poster noted---Tony Soprano calls the author Prince Matchabelli. LOL.

Is the Episcopal Church somewhat similar to the Catholic Church? My grandmother,who’s a Lutheran,told me they are.
