But there is very little truth to it. If anyone cares I will dissect this bullshit for your FB pals.

(11,481 posts)"Endorsed by God" for the Evangelicals. And since the capitalists and their toadies control religion for the most part, capitalism is the system that's been "endorsed by God". Of course there's a sticky wicket right there in the NT about taking care of your fellow man and all, but that can be ignored.
It's all part of a plan, overt or not, to turn capitalism into a de facto "state religion". As to the Constitution, it's like the Bible, it depends on interpretation.
