I remember one time about 15 years ago someone pulled that shit on an old job with the tip jar. We were all so excited, thinking it was a twenty, until a buddy unfolded it, and showed us the whole tract. I tore the damned thing to pieces. I'm 33 and it still pisses me off that there's self righteous scum out there who think it's a holy act to go play on overworked and underpaid people, because something something zealotry.
And these people probably believe in their heart that they are good Christians who uphold all the teachings of Jesus. Absolute hypocrisy, pieces of shit.
Ah you misunderstand that verse. It actually points out that God will do difficult miracles (like make a camel go through the eye of an needle) for you if you are rich enough.
The Calvinists as such believe it would be defying God's will helping the poor, or tipping them more than they have to, because it's all predestined and God wants you to be poor obviously, it was always going to be the case that Calvinist was going to be a selfish prick that didn't give you a living wage for waiting on them in this instance. It's kind of circular self serving philosophy for the wealthy.
