it's a shame

they wouldn't have him.  The Archbishop of Canterbury seems to be saying that it is the fault of the leak to the Sunday Telegraph, which is how I found out about it.  Well, maybe.  I'm sorry.

    Is it bigotry to hold a personal view?
    I think bigotry is to deny someone their opinion.

    I think bigotry is to blindly ignore the existence or validity of all other opinion.

    Bigot: a person blindly and obstinately devoted to a particualr set of ideas, creed or political party and DISMISSIVE TOWARDS OTHERS

    Bigotry: blind or excessive zeal, esp in religious or racial matters ( Chambers Dictionary).

    If that doesn't describe the way Jeffrey John has been treated, Anonymous 9th July 00:47 - then I really don't know what does.

    On the contrary, Anon 21:14. I have no wish to stop someone becoming a bishop merely because they are heterosexual.
