Erm, because if you don't take care of the earthly things you might become a religious beggar bothering people for their shirts?
Traditional kabbalah states that you can only start mystical practice when your physical reality (home, job, family) is secure. What use is an afterlife-obsessed waster to anyone?
Of course that "spiritual poverty" may well be a source of power, but that applies only to professionals.

Everystang lol I was thinking of your name as I type it.
Everything leads to death religion or no religion. But Jesus Christ leads to life.
Why would a loving god spare noah and a few others but kill everyone else ?
What a joke !

Some believe in a god who would flood the world or watch us spend an eternity in hell after creating us.
Is it any harder to imagine a god who would want his followers to eliminate the infidels ?
Maybe christianity is terrorism too.
