Motown Beatitudes After listening to the Motown album What's Going On, the Rev. Jesse Jackson informed its creator, Soul Crooner Marvin Gaye, that he was as much a minister as any man in any pulpit. Gaye does not see himself in quite that way, though he does admit to a certain "in" with the Almighty. "God and I travel together with righteousness and goodness. If people want to tag along, they can." While such words would sound intolerably conceited from any other pop star, they come inoffensively from Gaye. Part mystic, part pentecostal fundamentalist, part socially aware ghetto...

Not long ago, for example, he tossed his wallet onto the Communion table and offered to bet $1,000 that nobody in the congregation could prove to him that...

Where a preacher used the privilege of the pulpit to vilify members of the congregation as coming from "the lowest down scrapings of the earth," the Georgia Court of Appeals held that vigorous protest by the targets of the abuse was justified. The disturbance of the service, in effect, was the fault of the minister for inciting the congregation. ( Jackson us, State. 1918 ) In Gaddis us. State (1920) the Supreme Court of Nebraska held that certain interruptions of a religious service, even in the absence of personal insult, did not amount to a disturbance...
