Happy With Ratzinger! (No, Really!)

Mega-Church Pastor Rick Warren Under Fire over Media Mogul Parishioner's Porn Channels

Although this is not a Catholic issue per se, it is a Christian issue and although Pastor Rick Warren is not a Catholic priest, he very likely has direct counterparts within the Catholic Church.

I won't give Pastor Warren a hard time over this...yet. And by that I mean that the man should be given an appropriate amount of time in order to make the right decision, a decision which I am sure he already knows that he should make but which will be a powerfully hard road for him to travel. Money is the root of all evil, at least when large amounts of it are to be had and there are few men with more of the vile stuff to throw around than Rupert Murdoch.

If Pastor Warren makes the right decision, he will have a heart-to-heart talk with Mr. Murdoch. If Mr. Murdoch does not then divest himself of the pornography empire that he has been building over the years, then Pastor Warren should, in good conscience, demand that Mr. Murdoch leave his church and take his tainted contributions with him. Will that happen if it comes to that? I would like to think that it would but the skeptic in me thinks that some kind of excuse will be made for Mr. Murdoch so that he can continue to attend Pastor Warren's church and continue to donate those juicy tithes. I will be waiting to hear the outcome.
