Q&A
HE ANGLICAN COMMUNION was rocked in 2003
when the Episcopalian Diocese of New Hampshire ordained an openly gay man as its ninth Bishop. After
a tumultuous decade that featured death threats and
bullet-proof vests as well as a wedding to his partner of
25 years, Bishop Gene Robinson will be stepping down
from his seat on December 31 of this year. But his work
continues. A new documentary film on Bishop Robinson called Love Free or Die will be released this month,
and he just published a book called God Believes in
Love: Straight Talk About Gay Marriage, which answers the challenges to marriage equality that he has
faced during his life spent serving the church, God and
the power of love. — Paul Raushenbush
