FYI articles...capitalism v. socialism? democrats v. republicans?

December 19, 2006

Five articles WELL worth the read - If you REALLY want to know where I (and other "liberal church members") stand regarding all of this "debate" I seriously invite you to take a moment and read these (plus it ought to clear up some misconceptions).

#1 "Wealth and Poverty" - address given by BYU Sociology professor Richard Johnson http://sociology.byu.edu/courses/rjohnson/Wealth%20and%20Poverty.htm

#2 "Work We Must But the Lunch is Free" by Hugh Nibley http://maxwellinstitute.byu.edu/display.php?table=transcripts&id=119

#3 "Capitalism, Culture and Society" by Geoff Price http://rationalrevolution.net/articles/capitalism_culture.htm

#4 "The Spiritual Roots of the Democratic Party: Why I Am a Mormon Democrat" by Todd Compton http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Oracle/7207/demosp.html

#5 "I'm a Democrat Because I'm Mormon" by Kathleen Gurr http://www.dailyutahchronicle.com/home/index.cfm?event=displayArticle&ustory_id=68f7f3ac-4c76-46fe-ae92-de0a6ac7acc7
