Gossip is the new pornography

I usually don’t take too much joy when authors are found to be plagiarists but when Neale Donald Walsch is the fraud, I can’t help but find some pleasure in it.

Walsch is famous for his Conversations with God books. In the first book he claimed, among other things, that “God” told him that Hitler was in heaven. Boy, there’s an incentive for living a purpose-driven life! I’m not a Christian (or even a believer) but I’d like to at least believe Heaven should be harder to get into than the parking lot of Ikea on a weekend.
