What's your threshold for when a pastor's/priest's salary is considered excessive or unjust?

That's up to the individual pastor or priest. But, clergymen who live like rock stars are hardly examples of Him who had nowhere to lay His Head.

What a bummer! Abraham (Gen 13:2, 14:4), Isaac (Gen 26:12-13), Job (Job 1) and Solomon (1 Kgs 3:13, 2 Chr 1:12) have just been condemned as "hardly examples" for us to follow. And I'm guessing that Deuteronomy 8:18 has been rescinded in the New Testament era?

I've got a funny feeling that the Pope isn't living in a cardboard box in the rain.
