Cleared of the serious allegation of touching some asshole's shirt in an open meeting, I introduce you to Bishop Robinson, 62-45 voting in favor.

edit sorry, just had to include this:


Scruton said the touching incident "was in public view and was brief" and happened at a church meeting where Robinson put his hand on a man's back and arm while engaged in a conversation.

The claim of inappropriate touching was e-mailed to Vermont Bishop Thomas Ely by David Lewis of Manchester, Vt. A family friend said Tuesday that Lewis never intended the allegations to go public. Scruton said Lewis told him he did not want to file a formal complaint.



No, really?

Boy, this guy's just oozing principles, isn't he.

Personally, I liked the allegation that a website with which Bishop Robinson was formerly affiliated was "a few clicks away from a pornographic website."

Wouldn't that describe, I don't know, EVERY website?

apparently the Bishop (I love writing that) formed an independent chapter of a gay youth group which has a single website linking to all the independent chapters. He's no longer involved, hasn't been since the late nineties.

One of the other chapters had a link to a bisexual resource page which linked to a site which had porn on it.

It's sort of like tarring a former McDonalds franchise holder for a current franchise owner's behavior.
