**LORD (and I mean a literal call to God) --- now they are saying that the homosexual candidate for bishop in NH has some dirty laundry involving Porn....... READ the article...
Of course.....reported by FAUX. The accuser is a right wing anglican who has been working against Robinson's election; apparently, after the vote to install Robinson, this dude reports that another Bishop tipped him off about the porn. But will not name that bishop. Oh, and apparently some other guy thinks Robinson touches him without regard to "boundaries"; this is transmuted into "inappropriate touching" which in the world of bad touching implies: molestation.....
Despicable!

Monday, August 04, 2003
MINNEAPOLIS — A controversial vote on whether to confirm the Episcopal Church's (search) first openly gay bishop was put on hold Monday afternoon after allegations of inappropriate "touching" and being affiliated with a youth Web site that had a link to porn emerged, a church spokesman said.
Presiding Bishop Frank Griswold (search), head of the Episcopal Church, released a statement announcing the delay as debate was about to start on whether to confirm the Rev. V. Gene Robinson (search) as New Hampshire's bishop.

"Churches are very sensitive to these issues. When charges are made against a priest of the church, it does trigger an almost automatic process," he said.
The allegations of inappropriate touching were e-mailed Sunday to Bishop Thomas Ely of Vermont, who was asked in the message not to consent to Robinson's election, Episcopal News Service reported. In the e-mail, a man who identified himself as David Lewis from Manchester, Vt., said Robinson "does not maintain appropriate boundaries with men."
Solheim said "some of the bishops have talked to the accuser" about the allegations.
Lewis wrote in the e-mail that he met Robinson at a church event "a couple of years ago" and "he put his hands on me inappropriately every time I engaged him in conversation."
