Defending the liberal media? Nope, just arguing that an AP article that uses the word 'cult' isn't really talking about religion, just using a metaphor for some people not really thinking it through about equities.
There really isn't a 'cult of equities', the AP writer has it quite wrong. The folks he was talking about are the Wall Street equities brokers, whose job it is to sell equities, so of course it looks like they aren't thinking it through. They are simply lying through their teeth about how equities always being the right choice.
You get to take as much umbrage as you want. I'm just pointing out that you have crossed the silly line in this case, IMHO.
There is a difference between doing business and Mammon worship. And it’s not like I agree with the AP’s assessment besides, so I think we’re on the same page there.
