"If it turns out that President Barack Obama can make a deal with the most intransigent, hard-line, unreasonable, totalitarian mullahs in the world but not with Republicans? Maybe he’s not the problem."
Matthew 6:24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

I find it miraculous that the Bible is a booster of capitalism, especially since capitalism wasn't invented until 1776--no, not the American Revolution, but the date of publication of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. I guess that's what makes the Bible so mystical. The writers definitely knew what was a-coming.

?? Hasn't capitalism been around since the ...oh.. 1500s? Mercantilism is a form of capitalism. Or are you referring to free market?

The idea of profit as its own motivation for private enterprises comes straight out of Adam Smith. Mercantilism focuses on nations accumulating gold, by trade and/or by colonization, and sitting on the bullion. It did wonders for Spain!
