LOTS of Christians, including you, make money off of Christianity. It's odd to me that you'd be casting that particular stone at Farrakhan.

I made about 20k last year. That's a LOT less than I would guess Farrakhan made. You also will not see me stand in a pulpit and call any particular group of people a devil based on skin color. For that matter, I've never called a group of people a devil.

I will say that about ANYONE. That's what the Bible says.

Money is money. I wasn't aware there was a sliding scale. Does making $20K make it OK but making $2,000,000 make it not OK?

Is the pastor making $20K sending a better message than the pastor making $100K? Does making $20K make you a better person or pastor than the person making $100K? (If that's true the LDS pastor who makes $0K is......wait for it..... saintly.)

You seem to suggest that religious leaders use religion for money. I would say that it's probably more true for someone that makes more. If my motivation was money, I'm in the wrong business--because I made roughly 5 times as much in my previous career. I would also suggest that the LDS pastor/president/elder/whatever the correct term is.......is obviously not motivated by money to do the job.

"Money is the root of evil".

No, it is the "love of money" that is the root of all evil.

There hair have no coils, they actually represent a genetic mutation, hence a virus or cancer.

Really?

Symbolically they collectively represent a cancer to this world.

You don't say? So according to your deductive reasoning ALL Europeans are evil and ALL Africans are God's people? What about American Indians? Where do they fall in all of this?

They represent a mutation that has grown out of control and is effectively destroying it's host, the planet.

Wow..and they are the only ones too?

Now I don't think white people are devils.

Really? You could have fooled me!!
