"Capitalism is the system of individual rights... That's the point we have to defend to the death, everything else follows from that. The tremendous prosperity of the capitalist system, the reason immigrants want to come here from all over the world...is that capitalism is the system that protects the inalienable right of the individual to his own life." --Andrew Bernstein

However, if you look solely at the LOGIC, there is nothing anti-Scriptural or anti-government in what is presented. It does highlight (unintentionally) an issue that today's Christianity faces: the widespread perception that Christianity operates on a foundation separate from reasoning, logic, and intelligence.
