The Lambeth Chill
21 October 2004
"'I mean, can you imagine having a commission study racism with no people of colour at the table, or study sexism and have no women at the table? And yet it seems perfectly fine -- in fact [on the contrary] you'd be accused of doing something horrible -- not to have a gay or lesbian person at the table talking about these issues.'" Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire, Gene Robinson, talks with Michael Valpy of The Globe and Mail about his surprise that the Lambeth Commission which convened, in part, to deal with his sexuality, was comprised entirely of heterosexuals. Robinson also predicts that the commission's report will have a chilling effect on gay and lesbian aspirations within the church.
