Others Notice Even When the B&R Buries Story

If the lack of posting about the TBC vs. Belmont issue is an indication that people are bored with this, here is evidence: Only three recents posts (according to technorati.com) from other blogs even mention the action between Belmont University and the Tennessee Baptist Convention:
The Tennessean continues coverage of the case...and the many comments that follow this story seem to indicate that people aren't bored but have some very strong opinions. After reading all of the comments, I understand why the Baptist & Reflector cannot will not report all of the facts...the 'head-in-the-sand' approach will keep open debate within our churches to a minimum on this case. In the glowing budget report section of the B&R article identified above, absolutely NO mention of how the litigation process will be paid for was mentioned...unless, we are to assume that the new "emergency reserve" will become the new method to avoid accounting for mission funds being diverted to law firms who are willing to sue other Baptists.

Yawn. It is only $57-58 million. Why should anyone get excited?!
