Hm. I agree the juxtaposition of gospels and rampant capitalism seems odd to me, but I'm probably being unfair -- it's probably not because it contradicts the gospel, but because it contradicts a bit of the gospel _I_ think is good. Interpretations of Christianity I like, emphasise some parts of the gospel and don't emphasise others, except that I think that's the "obvious" way because they emphasise the parts I think are important and don't emphasise the parts I'm less sure of. If I'm honest, I want that, I don't want everyone to blindly follow the text even if it seems wrong to them, so it would be hypocritical of me to criticise other people for not doing that (even if I disagree with their interpretation for not being compassionate enough)...?
