The modern evangelical churches are full of these people today. Its because of this slow but unchecked slide from believing that everyone and every creature are God's creations and are equally valuable. Its now changed to - he who has the most $ is the most blessed by God. This shift has meant that the church is now available as a sanctuary not for the dispossessed, but for the vile sociopaths and mean spirited people who have trampled others on their way up the ladder and now the church not only does not condemn their behavior, but welcomes them in and praises it...as long as they are "blessed" with success. They go to get their reprehensible behavior sanctioned by God, and with this new attitude in the modern day Christian church...that's what happens. So they feel righteous and justified in their cruelty.
