And then there’s the whole “Prosperity Gospel” thing, the idea that riches on this earth show your godliness, too. I’m not really sure how that fits in, whether it’s two tidal waves of jerktastic, self-justifying philosophy crashing together, the religious ‘god will make you rich’ assholes and the ‘the guy who dies with the most toys wins’ assholes, or whether there’s some interaction and synergy there.
