It's hard to think of something more anti-Jesus than the "prosperity gospel". "Blessed are the wealthy"?

It's not really new; Calvinism had the same worldview, and Papal Indulgences had the same mechanism. Plus, paying the priest for favorable pronouncements is probably as old as religion.

But it is pretty blatant.
