"The Church of England's most
senior openly gay cleric is understood to be considering suing his employers for
discrimination unless he is made a bishop.
"Dr Elton Jeffrey John, the dean of
St Albans, was forced to stand down by the archbishop of Canterbury, after being appointed suffragan bishop of Reading in 2003 following
objections from conservative evangelicals..."
The Guardian - and every sodding paper.
Words cannot begin to describe how little I care about this story.
Update: A note of caution from Fagburn's favourite Christian, the Rt Rev Richard Coles; "Wondering where this Jeffrey John story originated..." via Twitter.
At the time of typing Jeffrey John has not commented on this story.
It was started in yesterday's Sunday Times, Gay Bishop Threatens To Sue, which quotes only "a friend of John" and " a source close to him".
Ooh, I'm starting to care now...
