One more on Bishop Robinson, from a reader: “One thing that strikes me

in

all of this mess is the utter selfishness of Mr. Robinson. He obviously

knew before he was confirmed that the decision would likely split the

church. I just believe that, for the unity of the church, he should

have

been willing to not pursue his present course. I find it impossible to

believe that he really loves the church, because one would not choose to

destroy something one truly loves. Sacrifice is one of the hallmarks of

true love.”
