Fundraising Gone Awry


Host Todd Wilken, on the October 27th Issues, Etc. show:

I was speaking at a congregation yesterday, on a Reformation Sunday, about the efforts to raise money by selling of indulgences, and it struck me as I was speaking, that the Church even today, not even going back to the 16th century, the Church even today is very deft at finding ways to turn even the most sacred doctrines, or it's worst errors, into a fundraising opportunity. Not much has changed.

I've suggested on two occasions that Wilken be put in for soundbite of the week. I'm thinking the host has taken himself out of the running. A shame if you ask me.
