Thanks for the post here. I would tend to disagree with your last statement as many choices in life are not made independently of our belief systems and “frames”, mainly spiritual, and this includes RE choices.
That is why these talks keep “naturally” coming up in these forums and I think they are healthy as long as we all respect one another’s thoughts….
As you can see from other posts here like the big scam in Murrieta that is costing alot of people alot of hardship and further deteriorating market prices, these guys preyed on Church people and also claimed to be “Christians” themselves.
Then you have a post where a bunch of Christian Realtors are praying for a reversal in the market prices in Florida trying to get God to violate the natural laws of economics and market cycles. Outright Crazy!
I have heard story after story of people unduly influenced by religious people in making “investment and real estate” purchases over the past few years under the guise of “Blessing” and we are “Blessed” and God wants you to be rich talk…it is rampant in the business of religion today…and it is big $ my friend…..
And people need to start blowing the whistle here and telling people the truth about this stuff…and to watch out for these people that do things in the NAME OF GOD…..and to not be deceived…..
