A priest who supports same-sex unions has been elected as bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Southern Ohio.
"I have a fairly settled conviction that any two persons who struggle to live and grow together in fidelity on a lifetime basis have the opportunity to experience God's grace and to use that relationship for holiness," The Rev. Thomas Edward Breidenthal said.
However, Breidenthal, a dean of religious life at Princeton University, said he would not perform a same-sex union without the consent of the church.
