    Prosperity gospel or the health and wealth gospel is a Christian religious doctrine which claims the Bible teaches that financial blessing is the will of God for Christians. The doctrine teaches that faith, positive speech, and donations to Christian ministries will always increase one's material wealth.

    Churches in which the prosperity gospel is taught are often non-denominational and usually directed by a sole pastor or leader, although some have developed multi-church networks that bear similarities to denominations. Such churches typically set aside extended time to teach about giving and request donations from the congregation, encouraging positive speech and faith. Prosperity churches often teach about financial responsibility, though some journalists and academics have criticized their advice in this area as unsound.

    there's really no difference from their greed and desire to prosper by pleasing an imaginary supernatural being as compare to the rest of the chinese taoist gods worship.

    There are many different, the most important point is that these chinese folk religions followers keep to themselves. They don't harm anyone, they are not responsible for any catastrophic acts to mankind as a result of their believes.

    You still have problems?

    If the Bible is 100% factually accurate, then Galileo is wrong.

    The Earth revolves around the Sun.

    Therefore the Bible is not 100% factually accurate.
