Is there a gay Gene?

Well, Yes there is. :-\

Gene Robinson of New Hampshire, the first bishop known to be in an openly gay relationship, is seen in Concord, in a March 7, 2004 file photo. A key committee trying to craft the U.S. Episcopal Church's response to the anger and alienation caused by the consecration of the openly gay bishop wrestled with disagreements on Friday over how to apologize and what to promise for the future.

Instead, it urges dioceses to "refrain from" choosing bishops "whose manner of life presents a challenge to the wider church."

Faithful Christians, for example, would certainly not qualify. Such folk offend most Episcopalians.

Frank Wade was the rector of the church I attended growing up. He is a Citadel grad and he wrote one of the recommendation letters for my brother to attend there.
My mother, who announced last night that she is no longer Episcopalian, will be even more upset when she sees this.
