Jim, Jeff, Wim, all, It is my understanding that since the lawsuits broke out against the Catholic church over child molestation, that there are now seminars for lawyers to attend to learn how to sue churches. We now have to agree to federal background checks just to teach sunday school to children. So, I am convinced that churches are requiring this kind of protection for anyone who might come under their roof while a child or anyone else who could be a victim of any kind of malicious intent is present. It is indeed a different world. Will church members start having to carry liability insurance to attend services? Not sure I understand the workman's comp requirement, though. I do invest the few extra dollars per paycheck for the extended disability coverage. The state covers short term disabiliity. I used to sell insurance, and I think it is a smart few bucks to spend. We once were taught that statistics are that you are 7 times more likely to become disabled than to die prematurely. If you're looking at that highly advertised product, I'd do some shopping around. That duck costs a lot of money and its got to come from somewhere.
