From a Los Angeles Times article:
RIVERSIDE, Calif. - In a ringing defense of an openly gay bishop and same-sex unions, Los Angeles Episcopal Bishop J. Jon Bruno declared here that the Episcopal Church is "a roomy house" for all, and warned that those who leave would be leaving "the presence of God."* * *
"Our written Scriptures have limitations. They cannot be equivalent to the incarnate word of God in Jesus," Bruno said. "They convey God's word in a particular cultural and historical context. And these Scriptures are the word of God in the words of human beings."
Local color: Bishop Bruno is a former Burbank police officer who also used to play for the Denver Broncos.
