In Matthew 20: "That a rich man shall hardly enter into the Kingdom of heaven. It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God." Let us avoid the cardinal sin of avarice i.e. "Tanxin" in Pin Yin for Chinese phonetic equivalents.
The present financial crisis may be viewed religiously as a call to be poor to enter Heaven and to disregard the mundane world. Perhaps it is Laotianye's design to make folks to be aware of the mundane world in transit to seek the "Tiantang" in Pin Yin.
