True it is divisory in one sense and like will cause problems looking at the disparity between the top and bottom earners but that disparity is always going to be there. As a Christian I believe that God will call to account those who "have" on what they've done with what He has given them. I have no problem with people having lots but they need to be generous and not only to those who can "pay it back".

I am no theologian but I thought Christ was quite explicit in his preachings that excessive wealth was an anathema to him?

Of course, later on when man reinterpreted his original message to "allow" wealth as long you are "generous" did we arrive at the normalising of obscene wealth and the illusion of trickle down economics.
