So, his sermon is news. I am just wondering HOW it became news? That's all I want to know.

I think we're running a string out to a point here, it really doesn't matter where we heard it or who the reporter was, it was posted on the WORLD WIDE WEB, and so it was opened up to the public. Just a friend sometimes tells you about a good restaurant that you may not have found on your own, or gives you tips about a great sale that you may not have found on your own, once it's public, it's public.
However, I just want to state for the record that I have no issue with RM on this incident. As a pastor, you can't control everything that is said in your pulpit by others.
When I pastored, on more than one occasion, I had to come along and clean up some messes left by others once they had left. A wise man won't step up and pull an evangelists's coat tails in the middle of his sermon over something like this. Maybe there are some subjects that would warrant immediate dispute, but not this one.
As a pastor, I would be more grieved by the 'jesting' towards those in my congregation than I would over a James Brown song.
I don't know what RM said once GP left, and it's really none of my concern.
My "beef" as it were is solely with the coarse and insulting things said during this supposed sermon, and since it's public, I'll discuss it publicly!
