CAPITALISM IS GOOD FOR THE BIG PREDATORS, and also for the small
predators pushing drugs, stealing, etc. It's also good for the sheep
who feel reassured in their conviction in the end of the world.

But somewhere down in the deep jungle there are little oases of peace.

It exploits our WORST PREDATORY INSTINCTS. What's the point of selling
a MEAN, WASTEFUL, UNSAFE vehicle for city roads? Back to the caveman.

I bet you people would buy ANYTHING that will give them power over
other people.

The whole point is that the Christians deny EVOLUTION in the past and
present. They try to avoid changes. Europe has changed a lot since
WWII, but America hasn't. A lot of transportation infrastructure for
the common good, while America is totally dependent on oil.

They ignore the laws of nature and in so doing, they DOOM
THEMSELVES...

Thank you. You are a smart Christian, perhaps an endangered
species. ;)

Well, you would have to go either into embracing change, or try to
survive it, because it's coming for many reasons. One is the lack of
natural resources for all (with the competition from China and India);
two is the technological and efficiency edge from Europe and Japan;
and three is the increasing pressure from Climate Change and pollution
(the oil slick) to change.

Stupidity won't save us from those.
