Those evangelicals have an eye on business. Their proselytizing is for money.
This is a pretty weak hypothesis
For every rich preacher there are hundreds (at minimum) of people giving them the money to make them rich.
The idea that all evangelicals are flushed with cash is a bit silly
Perhaps the reason why evangelicals tend to vote republican is they are charitable within their own communities and don't see the need for the government to run charities at fricking gunpoint.

Never said so... but just as there are countless people who think their spaghetti sauce is the best thing ever, and therefore wish to open their own restaurants, there are countless high school level thinkers who believe that their own special take on religion is unique and needs to be heard. It's fantasy.
