The man gets 2 salaries -- either of which is at least 5 times what a normal middle class FAMILY could live on quite comfortably -- and he thinks "people won't understand"? Give him a new award for understatement of the month! I wonder what part of this guy's life constitutes "taking up your cross and following" Jesus?

Voltaire once said that to control the masses, one must APPEAR to wear the same fetters that they do. Graham's fetters appear rather translucent -- with more than a hint of gold.
