Christians don’t actually care if someone is getting paid but it is really bad form to get pay and then call it volunteer work.

I can see your point, but it is hard for me to understand how any one can say they are sacraficing for the Lord when in many cases they are getting paid very good compared to the average worker and love their job at the same time.

Perhaps I can introduce you to my wife; who has the Junior Church ministry, is the church treasurer and check writer and does various other functions, such as being responsible for the annual VBS function.

I'm a slacker - merely running the video infomation display and computer work for the church.

The church board said we were doing such a good job; that our wages will be tripled next year!

Mormons use the fact that they claim “lay” clergy instead of paid ministers to convince people that they are the true Christian church.

That is the reason this stuff gets posted. It is to inform possible converts that the story being told my missionaries is half true at best.
