Yeah. With some of the religious figures in the US, I think they've
forgotten what Jesus said about not being able to serve two masters, and
they're actually serving mammon. And fleecing their followers to do so,
and telling them that if they only believe, they'll have great riches on
Earth. Kinda contradicts the whole "lay up for yourselves treasures in
heaven" thing, all around.
(Matthew chapter 6 contradicts a lot of things that people are doing
*supposedly* in the name of Jesus.)
