Gay bishop Gene Robinson poses for photographs on the Kent University campus, in Canterbury, on July 30, 2008. Gene Robinson is the first openly gay bishop and disagrees with the decision made by the Anglican Church not to invite him to participate in the Lambeth conference in Canterbury, an event which happens every 10 years and which all Anglican bishops and archbishops attend. However, the US bishop from New Hampshire decided to come to make himself heard but was accompanied by a bodyguard. AFP PHOTO/Shaun Curry (Photo credit should read SHAUN CURRY/AFP via Getty Images)
