The vast majority aren't rich. You'd be surprised at how many are barely middle class. It’s also worth mention that the Creflos and Warrens are such A SMALL percentage of Christian clergy.

I definitely respect what they do and if any body should be getting paid, it's a man of God. This was just an exercise of my own fluctuating feelings regarding prosperity and spirituality. For all of us we get bombarded with commercial images(3000 per day) so its tough sometimes to see what really matters in life. If you're bored, there's a piece on my site that speaks directly to America's overconsumption. http://www.urbanmoneyonline.com/folam.html Just to be clear, I am not knocking TD, Osteen, Warren or even Creflo.

Yeah, what they do is nice, but if I can start my day with hope, peace and love in my heart because of the teachings of people like Creflo or T.D., then I think that is money well spent. The value of what they provide to their congregants is reflected in the worldly things that they have. That is it. People have chosen to reward them because they have been touched in some way. So does God care if you are rich or poor? Probably not. Does God want to see people prosper? I'm sure. Leave it at that. The focus should be on your own individual prosperity rather than others'. Trying to decipher other people's motivations is likely an exercise in futility.

I have often heard that we, as a country, are separated from God because of our prosperity. I think being poor makes people humble. And, I believe struggle pulls people closer to God. Do rich people struggle? Yes. But something about not having food to eat makes you really wanna stay connected to God. I have alot to say on this subject... I may continue later.
