What I genuinely do not understand is why some people say they are "Christian" (meaning they follow Christ) while at the same time they usurp large portions of God's creation in order to generate revenue.

How much land did Christ own? How many cars? How much revenue did he generate through buying low and selling high?

"Wealthy Christian" seems to me to be a contradiction in terms. You can be one or the other, but not both. One can SAY that they are both, but really, they're not.

If I'm wrong then post your explanation
