Dave ArnottGUEST
So we'd be careful about that, but we look at this evidence of this republic lasting 250 years, and we think, "Why? Why did that happen?" And so one assumption might be, well, maybe this is what God intended.

Dave ArnottGUEST
Maybe that's why it's lasted so long, is that maybe we're following God's rules and intentions for life, and that's what we're trying to figure out.

Dave ArnottGUEST
So this free market capitalism, a- as a Christian, I show a picture, uh, by H- William Holman Hunt, and it's a picture of Jesus knocking on the door, and what you notice pretty quickly is there's no handle on Jesus' side of the door.

Dave ArnottGUEST
As Christians, we believe that the greatest being who ever existed, Jesus w- as God, cannot open the door.

Dave ArnottGUEST
And so if with that belief system, if we believe God wants us to have that much freedom, then he wants us to have as much freedom as possible in our economic lives as well.
