Alright, we couldn’t wait any longer to share some thoughts about Capitalism (and Democracy).  Don’t worry we don’t spend the whole time there…we also break down the theology of Manifest Destiny.  That’s right, we’re calling it a theology!  Now, we know It may seem like a little excursus from the book (hence the name of this post) but we feel like it is critical to go ahead and identify some of the philosophical strands that have created this knotted-up-ball-of-yarn situation we’re discovering as we begin to learn about the origins of liberation theology.  Hopefully this episode will be uncomfortable at times, hopefully it will lead you to more questions, hopefully it will stir up some healthy group conversation as we wonder together: Can capitalism and democracy co-exist?  ​Listen in and tell us what you think!
