Bishop Vicki Gene Robinson

Vicki Gene Robinson -- an open homosexual since 1986, when he divorced his wife with whom he had two daughters -- has been consecrated as the first openly homosexual bishop in the Episcopal Church USA. As Robinson's male "partner" of 14 years and his ex-wife and daughters stood beside him, the denomination declared that he could speak for God.

"We are seeing so many Roman Catholics joining the (Anglican) church," said Robinson on a visit to London. "Pope (Joseph) Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) may be the best thing that ever happened to the (US) Episcopal Church."


If they are leaving because of Pope Benedict you can have them. However, if anyone wants to leave the Episcopal church because of this "guy", you are welcome home to the Catholic church.

Gene Robinson, the world's first openly gay bishop, said that Pope Benedict XVI's attitude toward homosexuals might be boosting membership of the Anglican Church in the United States.

Fine, take all the Catholic fags to the Anglican Church, pronto. The sooner the better.

Indeed, this is good news for Catholics.

Of course, he didn't give any numbers of the rise of membership in the Anglican church - because it isn't happening.

Average Sunday Attendance figures have now been released by ECUSA. These figures for the year 2004 - the first full year after Vicky's consecration - are WAY down.

"I find it so vile that they think they are going to end the child abuse scandal by throwing out homosexuals from seminaries. It is an act of violence that needs to be confronted."

An act of violence??! Oh, and what Gene, pray tell, do you call the homosexual predation of young boys?

It's just a fad Gene, relax. When they see that you offer them nothing, this too shall pass.

Memo to Vicki Gene, soi dissant bishop:

Well, Vicki Gene, if we Catholics can offload our lavender disordered on ECUSA and that flips your switch, you are welcome to them. We will gladly take those Episcopalians, willing to adopt the Catholic Faith of your and their ancestors, Vicki, and who are willing to believe and live as Catholics.

Then: In this corner: Christianity and in Vicki's corner: lavender mania.

BTW, Vicki Gene, do you speak for any particular god? Moloch? Baal?

So according to him, the Pro-Homos are leaving our churh (Catholic) to join their sodomy churches. But at the same time, their conservatives are comming over to ours. I'm fine with that. The Catholic church will be stronger for it.

It is sad if people leave the fullness of truth that one finds in the Catholic Church, but it is appropriate if people do not subscribe to the entire deposit of faith, the teaching once delivered to the saints. Paul and the other apostolic epistle writers repeatedly talk about the need to shun false teachers and not hold communion with them.
