Your theory would make more sense if religious capitalists weren’t doing the same damn thing.

Again, people suck and are greedy narcissists based on their own psychology, not ideology. The ideology is used to justify their desires, not necessarily the other way around.

You’re right on that. I hate that people try and profit on religion. They aren’t believers or they think the fact that they are believers, supposedly, they won’t be held accountable. I hear you on that.

I don’t consider them believers because they want the good life now and damn the children.

I only know that Christianity does work, when tried. It’s the only faith, if everybody lived it, that could take us into space and the future.

Too many people are out for themselves.

That’s a pretty darn good way of articulating the problem of “original sin”, or in the shorthand I prefer, the “sin nature of man” that permeates the world as a result of the fall of First Man (Adam and Eve).
