Robinson was communion-breaking. I believe that had their friends in the US not made it clear that this was a very important issue, some African bishops would not have acted as they did. I am not suggesting that the bishops weren't convinced that it was wrong to consecrate Bp Robinson, only that their friendships were decisive. Miranda Hassett's "Anglican Communion in Crisis" examines the development of those relationships and is well worth reading.Daniel Weirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11430381764138066595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-7621561815521047642009-11-22T12:38:00.790-05:002009-11-22T12:38:00.790-05:00You forgot about immigrants, especially illegal on...You forgot about immigrants, especially illegal ones.
