The article presented an informed and detailed study of the point I was making. It seemed suitably unbiased to me which is why I presented it.
The core motivator is shown to be Christian/ religious. I would agree on the anti Christian example of most of capitalism. I think the article addresses that, as does the axiom: the love of money is the root of all evil.
I detailed one abomination committed by the church, of which there are countless examples. That does nothing to discredit things done by the church consistent with its doctrine.
Christianity is also compatible with socialism. Christ had been referred to as a socialist. The point being made is that capitalism rests upon the concept of personal freedom.
Re slavery: you're mixing up abominable acts of corrupt Christians with the acts of Christians acting in accordance with doctrine.
Provide more than your say so on historic information and I'll gladly consider it.
