"Many critricize the SGI for the notion that the SGI possesses vast amounts of wealth. Yet, how would it be possible for a true genuine and successful movement for world peace based on the wisdom of the inner most Dharma wisdom, at this time in human history, given the vast and sprawling nature of our global socio-economic system, to pursue such a lofty goal amidst the power and organization of so many nation-state systems to compete in the realm of ideas and value systems.

Could you please site some clear passages from the Lotus Sutra and writings of Nichiren Daishonin to support your assertion? Others can hear and chant Namu Myoho renge kyo, whether wise or foolish, rich or poor, for free. Gohonzon can be bestowed for pennies. Meeting with friends and family members also doesn't cost a dime. The Lotus Sutra costs twelve dollars and the writings of Nichiren Daishonin are inexpensive or free.
Another perfect example of sgi desperation. Blaming their failure in all they claim to strive for on money. Money is not the problem. There are plenty of naive people willing to fork out money for this cult, but that money goes toward funding the komeito party and other dubious parties within japanese politics.
