A bishop came to Bakersfield to talk about the division of the Episcopal Church over the appointment of a gay bishop.
In December 2007, numerous churches within the San Joaquin Archdiocese voted to leave the national church after a gay bishop was appointed.
Tuesday night, Bishop John-Davis Scofield from the San Joaquin Diocese told the congregation at St. Lukes that the church has not shut its doors on everyone, just those involved in ministry who don't live according to their interpretation of scripture.
“If there is someone of a homosexual orientation that wants to come to church, our doors are wide open,” said Schofield. “I would hope they would want to come. I would hope they would want to hear the word of God and that it would have a profound effect on them.”

in other words-we want you to come so we can preach how evil you are

The Episcopal Church has neither divided or split over this issue. A few dioceses have voted to leave the church. They are currently illegally occupying church property, which they will be relieved of in time.

Obama has made numerous unequivocal statements in support of gay people. I wish people would do a little research before they keep spreading lies about him.
