    zzz 7 You can try and act like the debate was about something else... but this was your misrepresentation... which started the our conversation.

  2. Once again, your opinion is just that...your opinion.

    I don't agree with your opinion.

    By the way, here is a Christian who claims that capitalism is non Godly...quite the reverse:

    Care to comment on that?

    I've also said this before to illustrate where many Christians really live, and what they really worship:

    It used to be that the term communist and Godless were necessarily used together. Godless communism was the big red scare.

    Well, we now have Godless Russia practicing some form of capitalism...and the right says nothing much about their Godlessness because they are worshiping capitalism...

    Same with China...you rarely if ever hear the Christian right talking about Godless China...because they too have taken to worshiping at the alter of Capitalism...their own strange state controlled dictatorship which is embraced by the Christian right because they are now on the "right path."

    "The government is my shepherd:

    "I need not work.

    "It alloweth me to lie down on a good job;

    "It leadeth me beside still factories;

    "It destroyeth my initiative.

    "It leadeth me in a path of a parasite for politic's sake;

    "Yea though I walk through the valley of laziness and deficit-spending,
    I will fear no evil, for the government is with me.

    "It prepareth an economic Utopia for me, by appropriating the earnings of my own grandchildren.

    "It filleth my head with false security;

    "My inefficiency runneth over.

    "Surely the government should care for me all the days of my life,
    And I shall dwell in a fool's paradise forever."

    Is capitalism Christian? No, but its emphasis of the dignity of the individual makes it more Christian than socialism. Which is something more Americans need to realize.
