i was trying to keep is simple but i guess i can't do that here. of course wealth doesn't grant happieness the bible talks all about that. it says things like it's easier to fit a cammel through the eye of a needle than a rich man into the kingdom of heaven. i proposed wealth b/c that most equates to happieness to most humans. you cannot stereotype all christians that way. everything on this earth cannot grant happieness, that's why it has to come from somewhere else. as i've been told, we all have a God shaped hole inside ourselves. God normally does not treat wealth as a gift, but a responsibility. like david was a shepard but God made him king, not as a gift, but so he could do his will to lead his people. blessed are the poor for greater are their rewards in the kingdom of heaven. so yes, rich does not equal happieness, but i don't think you know what does so i choose the most common view. and putting slavery on christians just dirty. during the civil war was the north athiests and the south christians? no, both were mostly christians so don't give me that BS.
