Renounce Zombie Capitalism for Divinity's Love of True Capital

The Bible, like many of the world’s scriptures, is very critical of unjust economics and many of the hard sentiments at play in our Western systems. God(dess) often demands that we uplift the downtrodden and broken, relinquishing our worldly riches and hoardes of gold for the betterment of humanity as part of how we interact in commerce and community. Unfortunately, today we often give lip-service to God the Christ (“the One who Saves”) while actively embodying the opposite of his radical economics. The Divine Savior at the heart of all of our traditions puts value on the greatest capital of all: our labor, leisure & intellectual capital, and even more so on the point of economics itself, saving and uplifting lives.
