haven't you been paying attention. Actually the idea, as you phrased it, has been around a long time.

Mark 10:17-30; Luke 10:25-28; Luke 18:18-30:

Which when Jesus had heard, he said to him: Yet one thing is wanting to thee: sell all whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. [23] He having heard these things, became sorrowful; for he was very rich. [24] And Jesus seeing him become sorrowful, said: How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God. [25] For it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. [26] And they that heard it, said: Who then can be saved? [27]
