Friar Tuck (of Robin Hood Fame) was expelled from his order but kept preaching, sort of. How should he have been acting? Was ministering to outcasts living in a forest a legitimate task for a friar? Who would have paid for a Friar's food and upkeep? Did they have church supervisors to check in with?
