    This is a very interesting event and very happy it is available online. Without wanting to be rude, it is a bit disappointing that the sound of the presenter is so bad at times.

    Im reading his book, almost at the end, theres not a area of capitalism that he misses. Im glad theres scholarship on this subject, we need more. But wheres the motivation?
    He needs a pr person .

    I understand what he means about the religious nature of advertising he mentions at the start, but I don't think that makes capitalism religious. It's just advertisers taking advantage of our evolutionary predilections toward a narrative, or some form of 'sacramentality' as he calls it around 57:00.

    The unique property relationship in the new industrial state appears to now be caused principally by the producing workers having restricted access to the means of efficient marketing and promotion through myth making.

    I don't understand how he can feel the way he does about capitalism, but at the same time think consumerism is a good thing. Consumerism is one of the worst things Capitalism has cultivated and has only reinforced the idea of money as God.

    Evangelicalism (strictly) isnt the problem as much as White Ethnocentric Evangelicalism

      Does this comment mean anything at all? Good, buzz words, though!
