My point was there should be no claiming of following a doctrine if you have no knowledge of it. I'm sure there is a much higher percentage of atheists that know the teachings of Christianity than Christians. They don't profess their faith. You can't have a survey where you're asking someone to classify themselves without at least a small question of qualification.
I never said capitalism = gluttony.. reread I said AND. I'm not sure of the statistics but I'm sure we're still number 1 or 2 in obesity per capita. I'm pretty sure one of our chief expenditures is porn or fast-food. I'm pretty sure capitalism still breeds greed and corruption, not overeating. Capitalism contributes to societies values as does religion and I was pointing out the opposite nature of each (or similar in some cases) Capitalism is great in moderation and with controls. Look you got me ranting on politics... I hate politics ... I'm stayinf out of this thread.
