Catholicism was never shy about ostentatious displays of their wealth, that’s for sure.
Also no singing preachers 🥀

Why is every single comment about the catholic church, even though it isn’t even in the meme

Idk, probably westerners don’t know a difference between Catholic and Orthodox church

Protestants when they walk into a Catholic church and remember the first two commandments (or just the first, depending on who/when/where). Or the sermon on the mount. Or the part where Jesus says to sell your possessiona. Or the parable of the poor widow. And probably a dozen other places that I can’t recall off the top of my head.
They didn’t randomly decide they didn’t like gold, they do have a few reasons for it.

Wait - Joel Osteen is a Protestant, right?
I guess remembering is optional…

The protestant church as an institution isn’t exactly destitute either. It’s just not in gold.

Prosperity gospel preechers like him and that guy with 2 jets are sociopaths. They don’t believe any of it they just like they pay and perks.
