And here’s to you, soon-to-be-Mrs. Robinson...

I think this guy’s membership in their clergy is wrong.
Him being gay, and entering into a civil union with a partner, I could care less about.
Non-Christain,,,
I guess he’s out of rehab.
God bless Church Lady for coming up with that phrase.
As for Mr. Robinson, the man makes me sick to my stomach and how I wish he’d GO AWAY!
Soon after the divorce, Robinson met Mark Andrew, who was working for the Peace Corps in Washington. A year and a half later, the two settled in the New Hampshire town of Weare,
Here are two opportunities when he should have stepped down as an Episcopal Priest.
The first when he decided that he could not live as a heterosexual married man. The other when he decided to live as a homosexual.
On each of these occasions he chose to live as a hypocrite and a living assault on his vows.
His superiors in the church also failed in their duty. When he was discovered to be living as a homosexual he should have been counseled, reprimanded and finally defrocked.
Anyone attending this church is just as culpable as their bishop.
We’ve recently taken to attending one of the VA churches that split from the ‘mainstream’ Episcopal Church. What a delight! Frankly, I am looking forward to the Richmond Diocese getting its hypocritical rear kicked in court.
The entire Robinson matter is amazing to me ... how many ministers/rectors have been forced to resign for conducting heterosexual relationships outside marriage? But it’s ok to leave your wife and two children for a male lover. Go figure.
What? You mean he’s been living in sin all this time!
Will she attend the ceremony celebrating the ‘civil union?’ Let’s wait and see just how much media attention THAT one gets.
Interesting choice of words. "Would not", instead of "could not".
Mat 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Sounds like they've been RECUITING very effectively (something they swear they don't do, but they must.)
**Robinson said his long journey began as a boy in Kentucky when he found he was not attracted to women. As an adult, he spent two years in therapy seeking a “cure” for his homosexual urges.**
But that could have been the Lord guiding him to a single, chaste [celebate] life as a minister or priest. Does not necessarily mean “gay”. Our society has brought on this misconception in my opinion.
I wonder if it ends up being a good thing that the first gay bishop is so mentally ill. Isn’t it clear that he has a desperate need to have people approve of everything he does.

Vicky Gene Robinson checked into an alcohol rehab center on Feb. 1, 2006. He spent a month drying out there, and hasn’t returned to anyone’s knowledge so far.
