	Gene Robinson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Vicki Imogene "Gene" Robinson (born May 29, 1947) is the ninth bishop of the Diocese of New Hampshire in the Episcopal Church in the United States of America.
		Robinson was elected bishop by the New Hampshire diocese on June 7, 2003.
		Robinson's appointment prompted a group of 19 bishops, led by Bishop Robert Duncan of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, to make a statement warning the church of a possible schism between the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion.

		Robinson studies mechanisms of behavior in social insects.
		The honey bee is the primary study organism because its rich social life is uniquely amenable to experimentation, a consequence of the many techniques available to alter precisely genetic, physiological, and environmental parameters.
		Neuroanatomical studies performed in collaboration with S.E. Fahrbach explore the role of brain plasticity in honey bee behavioral plasticity.

	Honeybee Shows a Little Gene Activity Goes Miles and Miles
		Robinson said that while there was an equivalent of the foraging sequence in the DNA of humans and other mammals, "one thing we are not talking about here is the shopping gene."
		Dr. Robinson and his colleagues were inspired to examine the foraging gene in bees by recent results from the laboratory of Dr. Marla B. Sokolowski at the University of Toronto.
		To demonstrate that the upswing in foraging gene activity was not simply a result of the bee's growing older, but instead was linked to the new behavioral demands, the researchers manipulated hive population dynamics.

	Gene Robinson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Raised in a strict fundamentalist church in Kentucky where homosexuality was hardly tolerated, Gene Robinson has evolved to become the first openly gay man in the Anglican (Episcopal) Church to be elected a bishop, after assisting the Bishop of the New Hampshire diocese for sixteen years.
		Robinson has previously worked as a curate at a church in New Jersey and run ministries for teenagers, AIDS patients and congregations in conflict.
		Robinson speaks through his Sun-Node conjunction when he explains that he has a higher calling from God to become an openly gay Bishop, while the semi-sextile from Mars (conjunct and ruling his 29° Aries Midheaven) to the Sun gives him the courage to be such a religious pioneer.

	Guardian Unlimited \| The Guardian \| The Guardian profile: Gene Robinson
		Robinson is not the first gay bishop, of course, or gay priest.
		Robinson may feel particularly touched by God because when he was born in 1947 to tobacco sharecroppers in Kentucky he was paralysed and not expected to live.
		Nevertheless, when the storm broke, the fact that Robinson had been democratically elected by his own parishioners placed him in an immeasurably stronger position than Jeffrey John, forced in July by the Archbishop of Canterbury to step down from the suffragan bishopric of Reading because he was gay, although celibate.

		Robinson said that if he was not invited, some liberal bishops may decide to boycott the conference in support of him.
