That would just be embarrassing!
I'll assume they are all atheists,apostates...or pagans. Yeah!

You WILL love one and desert the other. What's wrong with preachers asking American "Christians" within the top 1% what they behaviors would demonstrate with respect to serving humans self-sacrificially as "neighbors" (via serving God)...or self-gratifying wealth expansion and retention? Basically, does how you make and spend your money align with Jesus' self-sacrificial attitude? What do the statistics tell us? If not, is a change of heart and actions required?
This should be being preached everywhere about now...right??
I mean sure, EVERYONE can be asked this question (and everyone would probably need work)...but what population would it be MOST HELPFUL to get the situation addressed with but FELLOW AMERICAN BELIEVERS who are supposedly in the Body of Christ WITH the other 99%er brothers and sisters?
What do y'all think?

Think I'm jokin'? Watch this.
Let's say that only a HALF of ONLY the top 0.01 are Christians. Let's further say HALF of those decided to give 10% of their net income specifically to practically supporting public general welfare (via various means)
How much money is that?
