    This was the iniquity of your sister Sodom she and her daughters had pride of
    wealth and food in plenty, comfort and ease, and yet SHE NEVER HELPED THE
    POOR AND WRETCHED.

    This supports my earlier suggestion that accumulating and hoarding wealth is
    wrong, but producing wealth and redistributing wealth where basic needs are
    not met is right.

    Therefore, wealth in and of itself is fine as long as it is utilized
    appropriately.

    The prime function of religions around the world is management of resources
    and redistribution.
