[quote:Windsage:MV8zOTQ0Mzc5XzcxMjU3NjM3XzlCQ0UzODg4] [quote:Lady Jane Smith:MV8zOTQ0Mzc5XzcxMjU2NDA3X0JEQkQ4NDA=] I voted no. Why? Because it was purchased using the donations of people to the church. People give those donations to be spent for the benefit of those who need help. I do not expect pastors to live in poverty, but a lambo is over the top. He helps run a megachurch -- that is a lot of work and responsibility. What would have been so wrong with a nice luxury SUV, or if he had to have a sports car, may a corvette or something a little less in your face to parishoners than a lambo?? Seriously, I can afford a lambo, if I wanted one, but what a stupid, new/borrowed money attitude waste. It's why so many new money types, end up no money eventually -- stupid choices. You will rarely see old money in a lambo, unless they just rented the damn thing for fun. [/quote] People who know how to hang on to wealth and power for generations aren't generally foolish enough to be showy about it. The signs of wealth are obvious to those in the club...no advertising is needed. That pastor is showing off, not a good look for someone in that line of work. He could have bought a nice SUV and used the rest to develop an after school enrichment program for needy kids, maybe changed someone's life. Instead he feeds his ego. Shame. [/quote]
