I think Billy Graham is a good example of limitation. He would limit income for himself no matter how much was given. He lived by a modest income to support his family and to retire on. many of the preachers, minsters, ect. do not have retirement, medical or any of the things we would be able to recieve when working a job. Its a fair request in return for a full time job with lots of overtime. As for the greedy ones............well..I just dont know the answer

This can't be applied for all of them..and for Muslims ayatollas are only in Iran..in the rest of the Islamic world they live according to their salaries not more than that.

You forgot some fake born again ministers, they also lived in luxury while their parisioners live in hardship. Religions is a good business and its earns a lot through fair return of investment (preaching).

Now you're catching on.
Best con ever.
All the religious wigs should read "The Shoes of The Fisherman"
& then practice what they preach.

I wouldn't call it 'luxury' like say the rap singers, movie stars, athletes, drug dealers flaunt it. Beside Jesus telling us to support the church He wants us to prosper so we can help others 'It's better to give than to receive'.

I've asked that very question myself. Wish I knew the answer.
