Thus, Jesus sets the stage for the poor and gullible to give money to rich, opportunistic clerics.

Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on." Mark 12: 43-44

I bet as he watches Televangelists financially rape their congregations, Jesus wishes he could have that one back.
