2. Interesting..............
Reporting to Jesus --
"Preferred Management, an Indianapolis-based home healthcare company has a staff of 200, two chaplains on the payroll, and an unexpected name at the center of its org chart -- Jesus."

I wonder if jebus knows he's aiding and abetting an HMO? :shrug:

3. Not unreasonable, I guess
I mean the way the Religious right has worked this issue, I guess it sort of makes sense.

4. An interesting article from that "related" page
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6890714/

When faith steps out of bounds
Divisions over religion can destroy a team

There is the NFL team that was perceived to have squandered its season because its coach insisted on playing a fellow evangelical at quarterback long after it had become clear that the quarterback’s best days were behind him. Many teammates thought a promising younger quarterback should have been playing.

...

There was the college basketball team that finished its season at only .500, despite predictions that it would contend for the national championship, allegedly because of the deep enmity caused by its two stars, who were vocal in their Christianity. Since joining the NBA, the story goes, both have moderated their behavior after veteran teammates forcefully intervened.

...

McCartney has refused to give media interviews for many years, but in his book “From Ashes to Glory,” he wrote in 1990: “Not once. Not ever. The best players played. I have never given Christian players preferential treatment.”

Four years later, McCartney resigned to found Promise Keepers, a Christian ministry that encourages men to assume a traditional role as the head of their households.
