Gay Divorcee

In one of the blogs I read, I remember stumbling across a sort of tongue-in-cheek curse, to the effect that we should look forward to a series of painful and possibly vicious divorces, among the gay marriages then sweeping the nation.

The idea of the blogger, who is painfully and expensively divorced from a number of women, is that the other kind should have to suffer as he does.

I also remember this quote from the singer Rod Stewart: "I'll never get married again — I'll just find a women I don't like and buy her a house!".

Well, push has come to shove.  The penny has dropped. The poop has impacted the rotary ventilator, truth and consequences.  We have a famous Gay Divorcee in the Episcopal Bishop (!) Gene Robinson.

Gay Priest - Now Single

Perhaps not so famous.  Perhaps he will now search for men he doesn't like, and buy them houses.  Appropriately for clergy, he wrote a sensitive and literate essay to nearly explain his decision.  Significantly, it is published on the website The Daily Beast.  Any guesses on who the beast might be?

Schadenfreude: The satisfaction or pleasure felt at someone else's pain.  Probably a sinful pleasure.
