Thats right, capitalism is only successful when there are morals and ethics in society. The Progressives have had a determined mind to destroy America from within by systemically attacking morality and ethical behavior. And the results of this assault on America’s families and virtue, corruption.
Major correction: USA is based on private enterprise. Capitalism is a subset of the truth.
True dat.
Bookmarked.
That, I think, depends entirely upon what one considers 'wealth'.
IF you restrain your arguement that ‘No one here, in this world has ownership’ of your body, John Locke is correct.
However, IF you expand that to include God, then he is wrong. God gave us life, and the Bible tells us we were put here for Him, that our bodies, under the New Covenant, are His temple.
So, it seemd that the ‘humanisitic’ version would render us in complete control of ourselves, with NO over riding moral compass for our bodily conduct. Thus it places us on a slippery slope to “If it feels good, do it”.
Bodily misconduct is eliminated or minimized when we realize that, while we do ‘own’ our bodies and our selves, there is an over riding moral requirement that we use the body we are provided in ways that please our Creator, rather than just pleasing ourselves.
