Homosexual Episcopal bishop to enter civil partnership
before Lambeth Conference
http://www.cwnews.com/news/viewstory.cfm?recnum=53086
Boston, Aug. 23, 2007 (CWNews.com) - An openly
homosexual Episcopal bishop will enter into a civil
partnership with his lover just prior to the Lambeth
Conference, the Church of England Newspaper reports.
Bishop Gene Robinson, whose ordination as head of the
New Hampshire diocese in 2003 has caused severe
strains in the worldwide Anglican communion, has
announced plans to enter a formal civil partnership in
June, just before the Lambeth meeting of the world's
Anglican leaders.
Bishop Robinson denies that he has timed the ceremony
to focus publicity on his status as the Lambeth
meeting begins; he told a BBC interviewer that "my
critics would find any date impermissible." Robinson
said that he was only taking advantage of a new state
law allowing registration of civil partnerships. The
New Hampshire law took effect on January 1.
