"Giant churches with giant budgets just creep me out."

Me too.

However, I think Christians and Money are not necessarily evil or wrong in some way.

I don't know the origin of my visceral reaction to large, monied Churches, but it's there. I guess it's the Biblical admonition to help the poor and stay focused on the Word.

Well it's probably the bible. It has many things to say about the temptation of money and look at the examples set by the Lord, the Apostles and quite a few other notable men of old.
