Here we go again, yet more Ad Homs attacking my moniker.

Yawn.

Adam Smith, the founder of free-market principles in his first work, The Wealth of Nations” said in his companion to this work in the “Theory of Moral Sentiments” that capitalism cannot be divorced from morality, so I will involve morality in everything when it involves capitalism.

Is it immoral to engage in religious sectarianism against fellow Chriatins over the interprtetation of Matthew 5:32 or 1 Corinthians 7:15 on marriage issues involving interpretations of scripture?

Or do we need to even go back one inch towards what we had in Europe before the 18th century?

That was not an ad hominem attack on your moniker. Your character in the matter is mute.

Please excuse me for being confused about someone with the name “Laissez-faire capitalist” not being one, and posting reasons why it should be acceptable for certain businesses to be forced to into commerce with anyone with whom they explicitly do not want to do business.

Clearly my mistake.
