| | Gene Robinson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Robinson is best known for being the first openly gay, noncelibate priest to be ordained to the historic episcopate (see gay bishop). | | | After being ordained as a deacon and later as a priest, Robinson briefly served as Curate at Christ Church in Ridgewood, New Jersey. | | | The General Convention of 2003 became the center for debate over Robinson's election, as conservatives and liberals within the Church argued over whether Robinson should be allowed to become bishop. |

| | Robinson speaks through his Sun-Node conjunction when he explains that he has a higher calling from God to become an openly gay Bishop, while the semi-sextile from Mars (conjunct and ruling his 29° Aries Midheaven) to the Sun gives him the courage to be such a religious pioneer. | | | Raised in a strict fundamentalist church in Kentucky where homosexuality was hardly tolerated, Gene Robinson has evolved to become the first openly gay man in the Anglican (Episcopal) Church to be elected a bishop, after assisting the Bishop of the New Hampshire diocese for sixteen years. | | | With the Sun (Life, Spirit, Faith) and North Node (Soul purpose) in (literary) Gemini, Robinson says the deepest lesson he learned from his church was a "love for Scripture," adding that "it was a living faith. |

| | Intended to address the manner in which the Anglican church is governed and has communion, it arises from the controversy surrounding the consecration of the openly gay Bishop of New Hampshire, Gene Robinson, and the threatened schism of some parts of the church, notably the self-described "global south". | | | Ironically, it is secularisation within an organisation that would lament secular dilution of Christian faith in society. | | | Reform and Forward in Faith both originated as resistance to the ordination of women, a forward-moving reform that overturned a 400-year exclusion. |
