Religion is also a great menace to capitalism, take some passages from the christian scriptures: "my house shall be a house of prayer: but you have made it a den of robbers" ... "the whole group of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common..."

Normally those who follow up on this are called cultists...
