In Money, Greed, and Why Capitalism is the Solution and Not the Problem , Senior Fellow at the Discovery Institute Jay W. Richards and bestselling author of Restoring Faith, Family, and Freedom Before It's Too Late and How to Stop the Insiders and Activists Who Are Exploiting the Financial Crisis to Control Our Lives and Our Fortunes , defends capitalism within the context of the Christian faith, revealing how entrepreneurial enterprise, based on hard work, honesty, and trust, actually fosters creativity and growth. In doing so, Money, Greed, and God exposes eight myths about capitalism, and demonstrates that a good Christian can be a good capitalist. 

Introduction : can a Christian be a capitalist? -- Can't we build a just society? : myth no. 1 : the nirvana myth (contrasting capitalism with an unrealizable ideal rather than with its live alternatives) -- What would Jesus do? : myth no. 2 : the piety myth (focusing on our good intentions rather than on the unintended consequences of our actions) -- Doesn't capitalism foster unfair competition? : myth no. 3 : the zero-sum game myth (believing that trade requires a winner and a loser) -- If I become rich, won't someone else become poor? : myth no. 4 : the materialist myth (believing that wealth isn't created, it's simply transferred) -- Isn't capitalism based on greed? : myth no. 5 : the greed myth (believing that the essence of capitalism is greed) -- Hasn't Christianity always opposed capitalism? : myth no. 6 : the usury myth (believing that working with money is inherently immoral or that charging interest on money is always exploitive) -- Doesn't capitalism lead to an ugly consumerist culture? : myth no. 7 : the artsy myth (confusing aesthetic judgments with economic arguments) -- Are we going to use up all the resources? : myth no. 8 : the freeze-frame myth (believing that things always stay the same, for example, assuming that population trends will continue indefinitely, or treating a current "natural resource" as if it will always be needed) -- Conclusion : working all things together for good -- Appendix: Is the "spontaneous order" of the market evidence of a universe without purpose?
