Booze Lands Gay Bishop In Rehab

CONCORD, New Hampshire (AP) -- The Episcopal Church's first openly gay bishop, V. Gene Robinson, has started treatment for alcoholism.

"I am writing to you from an alcohol treatment center where on February 1, with the encouragement and support of my partner, daughters and colleagues, I checked myself in to deal with my increasing dependence on alcohol," Robinson wrote in an e-mail to clergy Monday that was released Tuesday by the Diocese of New Hampshire.
The Head Rector of my old church went to rehab for alcoholism, also. I wonder if it's the pressure of being responsible for a whole congregation that makes priests cave?

Or in this case, the pressure of being known as "the gay bishop"?
