Just met an retired Anglican preacher-man in a cherry Mercedes.  Building a very expensive little retreat for himself.  All that collection plate coin going to a deserving cause.  ::)

I can't understand how someone who put their hard-earned into the plate every week for 30 or 40 years wouldn't see this guy driving around town and one day just haul off and sock him square in the nose.

Ironically enough, it will be the well meaning guy trying to bring the senses to the church member who will take the punch in the nose when explaining that the pastor is pocketing all the dough and sleeping with most of the women and half of the men in the congregation.

Idk man.  Bunch of the oldies around here haven't got a pot to piss in.  I've fixed their roofs for free.  They're Anglican too.  I'm guessing this guy was their preacher all those years.  The Merc is an easy $100k in Aus.  I'd guess the building is $600-700k.  And it's churchy-looking!  Stone, arched vaults, stained glass, the whole 9 yards.  But it's not for church use at all.  It's just for him to enjoy.  That's a pretty sick joke.

I find it distasteful and I didn't even give the guy any money, lol!  Some of these people, too old and infirm to work, can't afford to get your roof fixed, can't afford a decent cut of meat for supper, and you gave this guy money all your life?!  See him loading his groceries into the trunk of his Mercedes?  How red hot would you be?

I honestly haven't decided to take the job on.  If it's not fuck-you money I probably won't.

On the upside dude looks about 90 so maybe he'll die before the building is done.  Or some ex-paritioner in a 1973 ford pickup will run him down. What a world.

Just a vampire in every since of the world, huh?

Well basically like a vampire with a bit of psychopathy after reading about his house specs to mirror that of a church.

Reminds me of how a friend used to describe to me how her co workers at Sears would screw over the elderly who came into the store with credit applications in an attempt to appease the asshole flunkie manager who was running the place.

Some people can be almost like wolves when it comes to dealings with the elderly and the ignorant.

I can't help but notice when you drive through rural religious towns the people seem to live in squalor but they have immense, beautiful, new churches.

You can't help but think it's basically state-subsidized churches with the thinking: government social services $ ---> people ---> church

I guess people were honest about Brazil being the easiest place in the world to get sex.
