The St. Louis Post-Dispatch had a salacious headline yesterday about the embezzlement of $510,000:

Ex-religious official charged with embezzlement

So who was it? A bishop? High-ranking nun? Top rabbi? Let's see:

The former head of information technology for the St. Louis Province of the School Sisters of Notre Dame embezzled $510,000 through the use of fake invoices, according a [sic] grand jury indictment filed Thursday.

Now don't get me wrong, I love IT directors more than anyone and they are certainly powerful and to be respected.

But I hadn't realized they'd been elevated to the status of "religious officials."

Good to know.
