another likely conflict of interest matter with respect to rick warren and saddleback church hi steve i don't mean to dump gasoline on an already difficult situation but you might say that duty calls the contributions list for carverm indicates that he has almost exclusively been editing articles that are in some way connected with saddleback church including rick warren the purpose driven life warren's book the purpose driven church also a book by warren doug fields a pastor at saddleback and richard abanes a lay minister and former staffer at saddleback there is a rather remarkable mockup of a version of the saddleback church page in carverm's user space here it is written as a promotional piece and certainly wouldn't qualify as an actual article why is it there i'll note that the username carverm bears a resemblance to the name mark carver carver was at one time described as a top aide to mega church pastor and best selling author rick warren throwing mark carver and rick warren into google yields hits that i'll hesitate to characterize but there are strong indications that carverm is potentially not just another editor and may be tightly connected with warren regards
