CHRISTIANITY HELPED TO CREATE CAPITALISM...NOW IT MUST DESTROY IT!Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you.

You have condemned and murdered innocent men, who were not opposing you. (James 5:1-6)
