Church Confirms a Gay Bishop

Looks like it's time for the Episocopal churches conservatives to threaten schism again like they did when the Church wanted to ordain women.

Yay! I was saying the whole time it was a set-up, given the timing. If it had been real, the accusation would have been made as soon as he was nominated, not after two of the three votes had already been won. I've been cheering him on ever since I heard he was nominated.

I did notice the majority of votes against him seemed to come from the South. Apparently we are still more conservative than the North :evil: . I am going to be so majorly screwed when I get ordained.
