Libel proof!

I read recently of a man who is in prison for murder and who brought a libel suit against a lawyer who accused him of another murdering another man as well. The judge ruled that the prisoner was “libel proof” and could not bring the suit. In other words, whatever could be said about the prisoner was not nearly so bad as what he was in prison for. He could not be libeled. That set me to thinking…

If you write a book on church time!

I might get in trouble on this one – big time! But I’ve always wondered how it is that pastors who write best selling books while on the church clock get to keep the money from the sale of that book. It is hard to believe that much of the research, writing, editing and final copy work is done on personal time alone. Which means they are already getting paid, by the church, for the work.
