Not content with the already inflamed situation in his church, the Anglican Archbishop of Wales, Dr Barry Morgan, (who is also an old friend of Rowan Williams) declares that he would be more than willing to consecrate an openly gay man to be a bishop.<\/p>\n

He is pictured here on the left with Episcopal bishop Gene Robinson\u2013the man who left his wife and children to live with his boyfriend, had a \u2018divorce ceremony\u2019 in which he and his wife went to the church where they were married and \u2018released one another from their vows.\u2019 He has now married his boyfriend in a public ceremony gushing, \u201cI always wanted to be a June bride.\u201d\n

<\/div>\n
