"and that is only because I have been called by God to help" Oh I bet you have. Up your meds. "Accordingly I do not intend to reply to any of your angry bile." So you write about 600 words. The cognitive dissonance is strong is with this one. "Further, you say that capitalism increases welfare, but if you knew anything about comparative economic systems, as the subject is called at my daughter's school," Your daughter's school teaches horseshit. Deal with it. "has no welfare; only dog-eat-dog competition, selfish individualism and empty materialism." But yet there was kinder, kirche and kultur all thoguhout rabidly capitalist England in the 1800s. Real wages grew 400%, unprecedented and still unbeaten. Science and health grew enormously in this period. As did the general welfare and the welfare and education of children. Labour saving devices made this possible. "income does not equal wellbeing, which is said to be the more important indicator of the good life" No, you need to be a well adjusted person who is happy with themselves. But they would prefer to be wealthy. Money doesn't make you happy, but capitalism is about money. It is about the accumualtion of capital which means more leisure time and advanced technology. "ask yourself afresh whether the money changers were well-off, or just rich?" I am pretty sure that if Mark Bouris (former owner of Wizard) would be a lot less happy if he never owned Wizard. "Look at Tex, and the one that goes by the name Strawman" Not their real names, a nickname and a paly on words...as my username is an in-joke and acronym. "and see what happens to the human spirit when one has chosen not the river of love but the torrent of darkness." Ah, blasphemer. Only God can judge the hearts of men. "You may have some statistics for this "mortal life", even though they're the wrong ones," No dickhead, they are the right ones, you are a liar and are intellectually dishonest. I think working on problems with third world poverty is a noble cause. Why don't you tell them they will be better of without capital accumualtion and modern medical technology, you hypocritical arsewipe? "Where do you think Kerry Packer is now: is he in heaven, or is he in fact feeling the heat?" You're just a cunt. You condemn a man becuase he was born into wealth and made it larger, and gave much money away to medical and other charities. You didn't know him personally, but judge him as you were your God. Tut tut moron. Yeah, maybe God will judge him harshly because he gave money to help cure people of disease and gave people employment. "As the one who lacks the framework for meaningful analysis, it is you who is the ignorant fool." Hmm, meaning ful analysis is what, fundamentalist Christianity? Or maybe you can explain what meaningful analysis is? Perhaps discoveries such as the division of labour and comaprative advantage, and political theories like democracy and liberalism haven't led to better policy and quality of life? You really are full of shit. How many Nobel prizes have you won? How many bridges has it help build? What a load of shit. Psuedo-communist fundamentalist Christians. Quite possibly the msot self righteous halfwits I have talked to.
