This was sent to me by my friend Dan Burk, who is currently a visiting professor at Berkeley:
The consecration of Gene Robison as bishop of the New Hampshire Diocese of the Episcopal Church is an affront to Christians everywhere. I am just thankful that the church’s founder, Henry VIII, and his wife Catherine of Aragon, and his wife Anne Boleyn, and his wife Jane Seymour, and his wife Anne of Cleves, and his wife Katherine Howard, and his wife Catherine Parr are no longer here to suffer through this assault on traditional Christian marriage.

Ah…gay marriage humor, (recalls that this is a politically slanted site, not a politically correct site.) Does that mean we don’t have to follow every comment on gays with the “Not that there’s anything wrong with that” disclaimer?

Gordon, what is your take on this? Do you agree with the sarcasm of Paul Emmons which seems to favor the notion that the Gene Robison issue is no big deal?
