Mr. Scott:  I see my comment could have been more clearly written; thank you for bringing it to my attention.  I don't believe people go to church for the purpose of gaining material wealth; we are there for spiritual strength.  I was referring to the converse: some of those who enjoy great wealth like to think they are better and naturally more loved by the creator.  It leads to an ominous tone-deafness about any 'lesser' being.
