Lambeth--The first Round begins

See the headlines on the right column of this blog for the issue of the Archbishop of Canterbury not inviting Bishop Gene Robinson to the Lambeth Conference of Anglican Bishops for 2008.

I have heard from our own bishop about the House of Bishops' potential response to this latest development. Let it be said that I believe that the Archbishop of Canterbury has shown extreme cowardice in not allowing all to heard and be part of the theological (and politicial) process that is the current discussion of the unity of the Anglican Communion worldwide.

If you are unfamiliar with the issues of bishop's Robinson's ordination as a the first partnered gay bishop, I encourage you to go to the Episcopal News Service web site to learn more.

Or, if you choose, don't. But I can assure you that these issues will not be going away any time soon, and we as a church must respond to them.

What are your thoughts?
