Churches and religious groups still have bills to pay. Rent, electricity, printing costs, etc etc are not free just because a group is religious. Are there religious leaders who manipulate people and become rich? Of course. But most clergy members are quite poor.
I know personally know two members of the clergy. One is Catholic and the other is I don't know, a Christian or some spinoff. Neither are hurting. The Catholic priest lives in a nice house on church grounds and drives a new Cadillac. The other one lives off church grounds but he's paying cash for his son to go to a decent university and his son always had new clothes from Hollister (son is gay, oh the irony), iPhone, iPad and every other photo on Facebook is him eating out. He does not work as that would interfere with his studies.

If that is poor sign me up!
