Please do not pinch the fruit
Many conflicting emotions surround the announcement that openly-fabulous Gene Robinson has been invited by the Inaugural Powers-That-Be to give the invocation at the first inaugural activity. He is the only openly gay bishop in the Episcopal Church, wowzas! Read about his invite here: Bishop Gene Robinson gets inaugural role
We heard Gene Robinson speak one time (he was awesome) and hung around awkwardly after his talk to shake his hand and say hi (he was nice) and enjoyed a brief chat and joke with him (he was funny and total cuteness!). Sigh.
The openly-female Reverend Sharon Watkins will also participate in the presidential revelry, giving the sermon at the National Prayer Service the day after the inauguration. That should give her plenty of time to do her hair and pick out an outfit haaa haaa haaaaa. She is the first woman to serve as general minister and president of the 770,000-member denomination of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), amazing!
What does all this mean? Should we be mad at inauguration should we be happy should we be…? Our homo heads are in a tizzy! Lord, what a fucking shit show.
