Rendering Unto Caesar

No- this isn’t a post about taxes. (Yes, you still have to do that. I’ve heard you have til mid-April.)

ChurchIT, an 8BIT Network site, has a post about “…Jailbreaking…Hacking in Ministry”.

The post is more of a question- it’s the comments that really separate the wheat from the chaff. I’d encourage you to head over and read them. I’ve, naturally, added my two cents.

This brought up a larger question for me when my friend Dennis Mansfield posted about our local paper requiring another blogger to request permission to link to their stories online.

It’s always been my understanding that citing your source when writing was not just good form but mandatory. As a blogger I do this regularly, because back-linking is key. (I’ve done it 4 times in this post alone.) However, there is a distinction between citing and linking. Maybe their (The Idaho Statesman) server’s couldn’t handle the traffic? Who knows.

Just my thoughts on a Tuesday.
