The account of the rich young ruler is a prime example of that.What the hell are you making up now? Jesus told this guy to sell all his possessions and give the money to the poor. Only then could he follow him and get eternal life.
Your hero then asserts that it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to go to heaven.
There's nothing here about how wealth is achieved. Possessing wealth is the issue, plain and simple.
