The Saga continues
And just when it seemed we knew everything, saw everything, and read everything about the ongoing confirmation saga of Gene Robinson to be Episcopal bishop of NH, allegations have surfaced from VT that Robinson was, well, "exploring his sexuality" (and another's) inappropriately, and linked his homosexual rights website to pornography.
It's all so seedy. You can read about how this all came about from the leading anti-Robinsonian (or who the Boston Globe rather dismissively calls "a crusading Web journalist"), David Virtue and his e-zine Virtuosity. Liberals claim the allegation's timing is fishy; conservatives claim they didn't plant anything. Funny, if you read the Globe article on all this, you can feel the dislike of Virtue (in all senses). When speaking of the pornography links from the homosexual rights webpage Robinson was affiliated with, the article sneers: The Internet contains many pornographic websites that can be accessed via other sites. The Globe was able to connect from the Episcopal Church's home page to a site featuring explicit photographs in seven links yesterday. Oh well, then, I guess we are all pornographers now.
Stay tuned.
