Megachurches: spreading the word or straight pimpin?

I attended a megachurch a while ago. I stopped going because it seemed that the pastor was more interested in what was in my pocket than he was in teaching the word. Every sunday he would recieve tithes, offerings, faith offerings and seed faith offerings. If the offerings were light the previous week he would announce it in church. This man who I will not name owns a fleet of expensive automobiles and several homes and businesses bought with church funds tax exempt. I'm no rocket scientist but back in uniontown alabama we call that good ole' pimpin. I understand that I may ruffel a few feathers with this thread but I would like to get some other opinions on this topic.
