would ever be tempted into being prideful right?

This is like when people try to dance around the money/evil thing.

"The Bible ACTUALLY says the "LOVE" of money is the root of all evil. Not money itself. So it's okay to be wealthy!"


Well yeah muthafucker, but it's a lot easier to fall in love with money when you've got a bunch of it. When money is buying you opulent homes and cars, nice clothes, vacations, and access to other important people you just might be inclined to start giving money a special place in your heart.

Maybe you're just a trusting guy Case, but I've been around enough wealthy preachers to surmise that even though all of them aren't in it for the money and power, enough of them are in it for the money and power to justify the number of people who repeatedly bring this issue up. People aren't just coming up with this shit out of nowhere. Many of us have witnessed people being fleeced. Saying a few words about god doesn't mean that you lack an ego, and a lot of preachers have some giant egos.

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts..." -The Bard
