Gene Robinson Strikes Again

Gene Robinson spoke at Planned Parenthood's fifth annual prayer breakfast on April 15 in DC and commented that aborton advocates need to begin to strategically target faith communities, especially in the wake of last fall's election. This from the Episcopal Bishop who divorced his wife and left his two daughters to go live with a man:

We have allowed the Bible to be taken hostage, and it is being wielded by folks who would use it to hit us over the head. We have to take back those Scriptures. You know, those stories are our stories. I tell this to lesbian folk all the time: The story of freedom in Exodus is our story...That's my story, and they can't have it. This current administration notwithstanding, the world is not black and white. We need to teach people about nuance, about holding things in tension, that this can be true and that can be true, and somewhere between is the right answer. It's a very adult way of living, you know. What an unimaginative God it would be if God only put one meaning in any verse of Scripture.

It's amazing but terribly sad to see the rationalization of this man in his attempt to justify his actions. The mind justifies what the heart desires, and Gene Robinson is an excellent testament to that.

Apparently, Planned Parenthood has a network of pastors across the country consisting of over 1400 pastors of churches. Do not fear! When compared with the number of churches in the United States, that is a miniscule number of ministers. You could probably get that many to support the legalization of heroin or just about anything. Rev. Ignacio Castuera, a Methodist minister and Planned Parenthood's national chaplain, is working to expand that network. In the article, he comments that it's easy to work with ministers on the West Coast and East Coast, but harder when you get farther into the middle of the country. Let's be honest, Mr. Castuera, it's easy to find pastors of like mind when you work on the California coastline or when you work in the Northeast.
