New Hampshire Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson has done something and gone to a place that no other bishop in the history of the world has gone – he has legitimized sodomy and sodomized the church becoming a hero in the process. Now he has been eulogized forever on video and on the big screen.
The documentary portrays Robinson almost entirely as the the story of change, a look at how a church with centuries of entrenched morality based on God's self disclosure and an unchangeable moral code can begin a slow shift away from Scriptural authority.
It is a sight that would have had St. Paul (presuming of course he could shrug off the charge of homophobia given him by John Shelby Spong) the Church Fathers, Cranmer, and a host of archbishops that followed him rolling in their graves.
