Does it ever rub you in the wrong way how priests or any religious leaders make a lot of money?

Yes it does. But I mostly find it weird that those who "follow" them aren't offended by this.

Yes, most of them are a lot of freeloading parasites. I often wonder where all the money goes

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Whenever I think about it. I agree that those people should make a good living, but the excessive lifestyles they love are just vulgar and wasteful. The money isn't used for "godly" purposes at all

Omg, a known date rapist from my high school is now a "spiritual leader". A lot of them are con men & scammers. You have to be to pack a church in 2017.

It's an industry as everything else. Profit is the main cause.

I have more important things to think about. Like what I'm going to eat for breakfast.

[c=#7700B2]no its a nice scam.. it more annoys me that people actually give them their hard earned money [/c]

It's hard to regard any religion with anything but skepticism when you see the money many of them make.

I used to fixate on that, but it's not worth it without the laughter:)

Send Jesus in to overturn the temple tables.

It's just a business....like any other..

death to priest
