skeeter,

>do you believe that God will rule the earth using free market capitalism when he returns for his thousand year rule?<

I don't think about religion much anymore because I think it's a waste of my time and energy. I'm agnostic.

I don't think people need rules from God to be outstanding human beings.

I believe that right and wrong, moral and immoral, etc... are generally INTRINSIC and not subjective the way American popular culture has been moving the country in recent decades.

The problem is that some issues are so complex we all haven't figured them out yet (but we will eventually). IMO, the best way to figure them out is to look at the results of various behaviors, lifestyles, life choices, actions etc... It gets a lot clearer most of the time.

If there is a God and HE returns, I don't think socialism or capitalism will be relevant. But if HE does return and "we" are put in charge of providing for ourselves, HE will set up capitalism, eliminate the Fed, IMF etc..., many government programs, and give some heavenly incentives for the best performers to be very generous towards the poor and needy in a private way. ;-)
