Least worldly church treasurer?

[Mairead]

Wilbur Daniels, 67, faces sentencing in September in Washington, D.C., on his 2002 conviction for defrauding the Dupont Park Seventh-day Adventist Church of $1.3 million, which, as church treasurer, he might have taken in a sincere attempt to invest the church's money in what turned out to be a Nigerian Internet scam. Prosecutors said Daniels' earnestness was demonstrated by the fact that he also lost his own life savings in the deal. {Washington Post, 8-11-03}

1. Jesus threw the money changers out of the temple.

He had no right to invest the church's money even if his goals were laudable. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Or maybe he was trying to embezzle it. We'll see I guess.
