Why are you not worshipping me like so many of the peasants in the U.S. worship the rich.
Please, why would I? I don't worship nor hate the rich as they are of no concern of mine. Not to mention, you have no idea if I'm poor, middle class, or rich myself and you shouldn't make assumptions.

Working at what, posting on CD? Don't lie. You've got over 125 posts since you last posted in this thread. You weren't too busy "working" to make those posts.
And, FTR, I don't for one second believe you're actually rich but I'm playing along with the fantasy you created when you said you were in the top 5% of earners in the US. At the very minimum, that puts you in the top 0.27% worldwide, WELL within that 1% that you so demonize. Since you are so adamant about rich people going to hell, why don't you consider yourself in that very same category? I mean, being in the top 0.27% is pretty high up there on the earnings scale, don't you think?
Oh the irony of finding yourself in the very category of those you despise and claim are all going to hell. Hahaha. You must be so internally conflicted.
Here, I'll leave you with your own quote:

Of course, there is something that they can do.
Matthew 19:21
“If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me"
So, again I'll ask again when are you selling your possessions and giving to the poor?

"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
Now I don't know what God considers Rich, but I am sure that he could find them in the top 1%.
He goes on if you read further that "Nothing is impossible with God." That being said, I like rich people. What I hate is people judging me or acting condescending toward me because I am having a hard time right now. After all, Jesus did say, "In this life you will have many trials." Unfortunately, many people have the "kick them while they are down" mentality.
I don't have the desire to join the OWS crowd, nor do I have the time. Although, after I heard they were getting job offers, I am seriously considering buying a tent. Oh, wait...I don't have the money for that.
Please, why would I? I don't worship nor hate the rich as they are of no concern of mine. Not to mention, you have no idea if I'm poor, middle class, or rich myself and you shouldn't make assumptions.

I pay taxes and I have absolutely no problems with raising the taxes in my income bracket. However, I do have a problem with the very wealthy who pay less of a percentage of their income than those those in the top 5% or even 10%.
One day before I die, after my children are grown. I just may sell all worldly possessions and give them to the poor. You make a good point there.
My first order of business is to my children. I am nearly finished with the money that they will need for college and money for their down payment on a home. After that, they are on their own. I don't need much. I really only need, food shelter, clothes and internet access to enlighten those like you.

So, you ready for hell? Ya know, that fiery inferno of a place that you claim all the rich are going to? I think being in the top 0.27% wealthiest people in the world qualifies as being rich by just about anyone's standards, let alone GOD's. Nope, nope, let's deflect and point fingers at the top 0.17% or the top 0.07% or how about those evil top 0.0007%ers. So hotair2, what is the magical cutoff? Where is one spared the fiery gates of hell for the pearly gates of heaven? Please DO enlighten. Surely you must have some idea since you seem to think hell only applies to those richer than you.

I am glad that you are trying to save me. But when I get rid of my money, you won't worship me anymore and I will be so sad. I will be fine don't worry about me. I think if you reread my posts I stated what I believe to be rich. I am not going to retype it to you. At the end of the day, it is not what I consider rich that matters.
If a person, doesn't feel that they are rich, that will be between that person and God. Your opinion does not really matter that much, well, not at all. I was being nice.
Do you have anything to talk about the topic, or would you like to talk about me some more. My favorite color is blue, and I like boxers over briefs.

Ohh, but it is what you consider to be rich that matters. This is your idiotic thread, is it not? Why else start an entire thread and opine about how the evil rich are all going to hell if you didn't have an opinion on it?
I'm still trying to comprehend why someone would purposely dedicate an entire thread to slamming themselves though. You must have a very low opinion of yourself and others like you. Sad. Stop Self Hate Today

You must have a reading comprehension problem. As I have said over and over, it is not I who will judge. I am not the one who stands guard at the gates. I have quoted the bible. My opinion does not matter. I am not God. I have simply quoted the bible. If you don't like what it says, take it up with the author.
If you think the thread is so idiotic, feel free not to post. Also, try to stay on topic. The thread is not about me or you.

Nope, you're not the judge but you do have a stated opinion on it:

and yet YOU yourself are in that top 1%, per your own admission. So, the logical conclusion drawn from your own statements would be that you admit you're going to hell based on some biblical quotes. THREAD FAIL.

If it is a thread fail, then why do you keep posting. If you want to talk about me some more just direct message me. I can talk about me all day. Otherwise try to stay on topic. Thread is not about me. The thread is about the top 1% in the U.S. not the world and not the Universe. You are just trying to move the goal post.

Ohhhh, so now it's only the top 1% of US citizens who are going to hell. I get it now. After all, I'm CERTAIN that God takes country of origin into account when deciding who to allow into heaven. Do you have any clue how moronic that sounds? Or are you just that unwilling to admit defeat?
No need to take it to DM, I'm more than happy to publicly humiliate but thanks for the offer.
