Religion in America

by The Editors | December 05, 2014

Does support for capitalism require belief in Christianity? In this interview, Dr. Ghate explains why the contrary is true — until capitalism is severed from religion, he argues, a true moral defense of capitalism is impossible and unconvincing. Topics covered include:

  • The authoritarian mentality of the secular left
  • The left as the secularization of religion
  • The wider meaning of Burwell v. Hobby Lobby
