However, the degree of Murdoch's involvement or the spiritual relationship is tough to say. The original story did actually have a link to an article where Warren had stated he was Murdoch’s pastor.

It is fun to listen to you and your ideas are stimulating.<br /> <br /> I think the open letter to Rick Warren to call Rupert on the carpet is out of order. The guys at extremetheology.com seem to have a mission to attack Pastor Warren and it is hard to know why they would spend so much time on the matter. I did think your discussion was fair and useful.<br /> <br /> Has anyone verified that Rupert Murdoch is even a member of Pastor Warren's church? I doubt it. And unless he is, it would make church discipline pretty difficult. I have never read anything from Rick Warren telling other pastors what they should do with one of their members, but people sure are quick to criticize him.<br /> <br /> I liked how you buffered this a little and didn't join the party like hook-line-and-sinker.<br /> <br /> In fact, I just listened to Pastor Warren's podcast on morality and it was pretty clear he does practice church discipline. Wow. Tough stuff... (it was titled 'moral failure of a staff member' on his blog (http://blog.pastors.com) Anyway, keep up the good work here. Thanks for you podcast.

I liked how you buffered this a little and didn’t join the party like hook-line-and-sinker.
