but I'm assuming the Episcopal Church still has available a book of approved sermons for each Sunday lectionary entry. They can be used when the priest is in a time crunch or a lay reader leads Morning Prayer in the rector's absence.

But I'm sure not surprised that it's megachurch CEO's--I refuse to call them pastors--who have been accused of heisting other people's words. It would be entirely in character of these con artists.

"Worship experiences" my aunt!

"Is pulpit plagiarism on the rise? Some blame the Internet"

Headline links a rise in plagiarism and the internet.


"The ease of the Internet could be a double-edged sword for some pastors looking for material. With sermons and books so easily searchable online, watchdogs have better means of cataloging, searching and reporting offenses. And it’s much easier to learn about and report offenses of plagiarism than ever before."

Actual content of the article links not the rise of plagiarism, but the rise in people getting caught plagiarizing.

I didn't mean you altered it or anything.
I've been frustrated with journalism over things like this lately. Ok, I understand, headlines need to be 'grabby' because eyeballs is advertising money, but accuracy is still important.

is the only thing an editor changes without consultation.

I'm not holding my breath, though.
