Sheldon Smith took $4,000 from Janice Neal, a “friend” he met on Christian Mingle, and then refused to pay her back. Naturally, Neal brought him on Judge Judy to sue him for the money she was rightfully owed.

During the case, Judy pointed out that Smith was acting particularly egregiously because, “You met her on a Christian Mingle dating site. Not Match.com or Harmony.com [sic], but on a site where it is suggested that there is a Christian ethic. People who are coming on that site, they go on that site to meet other people who I assume share similar values to them, similar moral values to them. So now you’re working, your son—who she doesn’t know—is working out his problems, you get a pension, and you look perfectly able-bodied to me. And she’s no longer your friend. So why should she be out $4,000?”

Imagine if everyone who advertised himself as a Christian actually acted like one. Imagine!

Neal ended up winning the case.
