prosperity Christians to admit to their greed and hypocracy. You can rant at them 24x7, and all you will accomplish is them getting more and more defensive. Their ego, their sense of Self-hood, is all wrapped up and entrenched in their belief system. They are not emotionally or spiritually mature enough to be open-minded to other possible ways of thinking and being. Except for a very very few, getting them to think rationally is pretty much a lost cause. They are "right" arguers. They must always be "right," and make everyone with a different view point "wrong."

So save your breath. Rather than waste my time with them, I prefer to think about and contemplate my own spiritual progress.
We cannot change other people; we can only change ourselves. IMHO
