do you see any similarites between Willie Sutton and your local hireling?

Some do. That's why the Apostle Paul warned us against these wolves in sheep's clothing who just want to fleece the flock.
Too bad more people don't read the bible or they'd be better protected from such charlatans...
"“When I preach the gospel, I may present the gospel of Christ WITHOUT CHARGE, so that I will not ABUSE MY AUTHORITY in the gospel” 1 Corinthians 9:18. Can you imagine any of the TBN/Daystar crowd using that passage on one of their Praise-A-Thon’s? Instead they nearly gouge you for your money. Paul said, “Not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many that they might be saved” 1 Corinthians 10:33."

I don't know about the pastors, but Willie consistently said he never said that.

You mean if there wasn't any 'sin' they'd have nothing to make us feel guilty about, if we had no crime the police would be out of a job and if we eradicated cancer doctors would have nothing to do?
I think so!
