The blessing


Apparently HBO didn't broadcast gay Episcopal Bishop Gene Robison's moving blessing to open Sunday's "We Are One" concert. HBO spokespeople are telling reporters that the Presidential Inauguration Committee made the call to schedule Robinson's prayer before the actual broadcast; there's no word yet from the PIC; we'll post if we get one.



Meanwhile, Sarah Pulliam at Christianity Today posted video of Robinson's blessing, and transcribed it. Here's what he said:
