The current Episcopal Bishop of LA, Jon Bruno, with whom I was in seminary, claims to descend from that Bruno.

Does heresy run in families?

Some words of Jesus can be interpreted that way. The brood of vipers, and such.

MadDawg, you’re a schmart guy. I guess we just hit your sweet spot. Church History - Planetary Physics - Politics. An unlikely trilogy.

As far as I know, Bruno never married (he was still a priest when he died, although in later years he was often refused the right to take sacrament).

Is John Bruno claiming to be descended from a bastard? What genealogical proof does he provide?
