The longer you let a non establishment candidate talk about something they don't understand, the crazier they start to look. Carson is smart to just stay out of this.
 
Being rich and being Christian is hypocritical. Not sure how it's not. I can quote the New Testament over and over again about that.

Giving more to the poor and disenfranchised is indeed Christian. Saying it's ridiculous that pointing out he's a hypocrite when he's the first to talk about God is ridiculous.
I feel as though pointing out individual net worths of people isn't giving the whole picture in regards to someone's hypocrisy.

Case in point, Jimmy Carter has a net worth in the millions, and no one ever thinks that he isn't a Christian, because he practices what he says. He goes out for chartable work like very few people in general do, which is why so many people, both Democrat and Republican, respect him as a human being. But because he's worth millions, does that make him a hypocrite?

This is more a theological discussion than a political one at this point. But I'm curious as to what you think. As a Christian, this is something I've always wrestled with, as there's direct things Jesus has said (give all your money to the poor and follow me), as well as things regarding how earning money works and when the right time to give currency is (as if you give it all away immediately, you can't earn any more though stocks and the like, which can adversely affect how much you can give in the future. Which connects to what Jesus said in the parable of the talents.)
 
Does that bell ringing supposed to mean something? Seems like it's a coincidence that people stop talking a few minutes after.
