Oy Vey
Amy links to this Times article. NYT articles on religious issues usually manage to annoy me but I suppose annoyances are the irritations that produce pearls. In other words, no pain no gain. It was actually rather humorous to see the author so conflicted over Mr. Minns, as if only ill-educated rednecks could be against the Bishop Robinson nomination.
It induces a gag-reflex to see either side talk about being on the side of 'the future', rather than what is morally correct. I suppose St. Thomas More should've seen that his martyrdom was useless and got with the program.
For an Episcopalian bishop to be influenced by how future generations will view homosexual sex strikes a discordant note. Leaders ought to lead, and not base decisions on which way the wind is blowing.
