Evangelical watchdogs find no hint of financial impropriety in all this. Jakes' income flows from book and record royalties and speaking fees, not from church tithes or his preaching videos.

Toward the end of the meeting, he broke away from health care to tell his audience that "the issue I am wrestling with is stem cells." Dr. Stan Pelofsky, president...
...found absolutely nothing. Not even under "boats" was there any hint of gondolas. So he began wandering around the city. He eventually stumbled across the Squero San Trovaso, and with the help of a translator told the men working there that he had experience building wooden boats and that he'd like to learn how to make a gondola. The craftsmen informed this smart American kid that they didn't have time for on-the-job training. "Their attitude was that if I had graduated from college, I obviously didn't know how to work with my hands," recalls Price...
