A mere pittance. Bet she made more for this photo shoot than you make in a year. You see it as slime, some see it as opportunity. God made the rules, then gave us an incomplete rule-book...folks generally just do the best they can with what they get. Some, thankfully, are not mentally handicapped by the accumulated crap that organized religion has appended to the basics. Folks I see here are much more hung-up on judgment & condemnation that gentle loving-kindness.

Same ol', same ol', or, as Solomon said...there is nothing new under the sun.

Even if she did, how does that make it right?
What if it ends up costing her far more than the trifling she was paid?
What will it cost her little girl - who will likely be the one to pick up the tab for her mother's indiscretions?

I wouldn't have cared a wit about these threads except to defend the actions of the church.

I homeschool to keep my kids away from Heather's two mommies, and Mikey's two dads, and, yes, stripper mom. I happen to like INNOCENT five year olds. And, yes, it is possible to raise innocent five year olds.

Most here would not condemn me for protecting my children, but, gee, are they willing to throw stones at these parents for wanting to protect their children. THAT is why the school has contracts. It is a Christian school for Christian parents who want to raise Christian children. It is not there as a dumping ground for parents who don't like the academics at the local public school, but care not one wit for the religious upbringing of their children.

Some schools are missionary in nature. Others are not. Besides this woman was subject to church discipline as outlined in the New Testament....ummmm.....there is more to the NT than the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

How is it 'mentally handicapped' to provide a safe enviornment for her child to live working at an insurance company with her child attending private schools instead of feature dancing in dive bars?
