Even Jesus had his heated moments. Going by the stories, didn’t Jesus fly into a rage and literally flip tables just because he didn’t like seeing people making money in a temple?
It wasn’t just people making money, it was that the money changers and the temple were working together to fleece the devout who were coming from far away to show their faith.
It’s not like if somebody had a for-profit Cafe inside a church, it’s more like the televangelist that use other peoples’ devotion to get rich, saying you have to pay more and more to get into heaven.

Hey don’t drag Kenneth copeland’s good name. He needs a brand new jet so he can spread the word of God without associating with the demons in commercial flights.
Yeah, that’s the money changers. He showed up and saw people doing financial trades in THE temple. It’d be like seeing a western union in the Vatican, though it may have been more extreme. Jesus made a whip by hand, busted in, and started flipping tables and chasing folks with the whip. It seems to be no coincidence that he was crucified pretty shortly after that particular stunt. Everyone in power was happy to roll their eyes and scoff until he touched the money.

That man looks like a demon wearing a human suit.
And it’s not a very good human suit.
Right? This is a proper human suit.
