I think Hinn is a scam, but only religiously. That said, this is the government who has decided that a TV minister who lives in luxury cannot be allowed. They must live a live of poverty to be left alone. Except of course Catholic Archbishop. They all claim an oath of poverty while living in luxury. But we won’t see raids on an archdiocese.
Actually, Catholic Archbishops do NOT take an oath of poverty. Only members of certain religious orders (Franciscans, Dominicans, etc.) do.
Unless a priest (and that includes bishops) is also a member of a Religious order like the Franciscans or Carmelites, he is not required to take a vow of poverty. The majority of priests are what are called "secular" priests, which are not members of Religious orders.

I think the problem is if he’s taking a tax deduction intended for the genuinely religious.
