Episcopal divorced alcoholic gay bishop.... Just to make things complete.

He was unqualified for the office on the first two counts (apparently there were people aware of his alcohol problem even before his election).

And of course, politics turned his third "disqualifying property" into the reason for his election.

It's still amazing to me, the depths to which politics will drag groups of people.

What this bishop needs (and you already know it), is prayer! I neither condone, support nor endorse his lifestyle but the members of the Episcopal and Anglican Churches, who are staunch adherents, stand in witness to an unspeakable breach of their christian faith. There is far too much pain that requires healing and THEY are the innocent victims of this travesty.

In 2004, the son of a Maronite Catholic family was enrolled in the First Grade at a public school in the state of MA.

NEWTON, Mass. — L. George Chedid wants his eldest son to learn about math and science and all the rest of the academic subjects that children learn in elementary school. But he draws the line at his boy learning about same-sex “marriage” — especially at the impressionable age of 7.

Chedid’s son was in first grade at Burr Elementary School in Newton, Mass., last spring when the principal announced over the intercom that the state was officially recognizing same-sex “marriages.” The school then sent several of its homosexual teachers to various classrooms — from kindergarten through fifth grade — to explain what this meant and to herald the law as a wonderful civil-rights advancement, said Chedid, an engineering professor at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston.
