Tutu Loves FruFrus, Thank God
September 25, 2006
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, in the first authorized biography “''Rabble-Rouser for Peace,'' said he was ashamed of his Anglican Church's conservative position that rejectes gay priests.
The Nobel Laureate wrote in a 1998 letter to then Archbishop George Carey, that he was ''ashamed to be Anglican,” after the Lambeth Conference of Bishops rejected the ordination of practicing homosexuals.
Apparently their sexual relations were ''incompatible with scripture.''
Tutu also said he was deeply saddened at the furor caused by the appointment of openly gay V. Gene Robinson as bishop of New Hampshire in 2003.
''He found it little short of outrageous that church leaders should be obsessed with issues of sexuality in the face of the challenges of AIDS and global poverty,'' wrote John Allen, who was Tutu’s former Press Secretary and author of the book.
Who knew? The gays have an Archbishop friend. Pretty cool.
