text: Great job, MSW. The following excerpt was my favorite:
  
  "I read their defense of the free market and I am always reminded of James Madison defending the Constitution, noting that if men were angels there would be no need for government. If the morality is extrinsic and must be brought to the putatively neutral market, and it must be good for the system to work, then we must find a world of angels, no? And, if men were angels, then any economic system would yield just results, yes? The problem is that men are not angels, and capitalism as a system encourages behaviors that a Christian is called to shun."
  
  I sometimes find myself at a loss when addressing the argument from my conservative Christian friends that capitalist markets should be minimally regulated and our care for the working class or poor should be through private charity. This is a great counter to that argument. I plan to use this for sure!
