@Salmi, You misread the post. I was claiming that the data appears to show that those countries are religious in part because of their poor economic statuses, not the other way around.

@spaceghost, ” If you use money to live you are a slave.” Are you saying that every human being in every society that doesn’t use the barter system is a “slave” because they use money?

@spaceghost, Can you elaborate please? I don’t understand how earning money to spend in order to live makes you a slave.

@spaceghost, It’s only an opinion that using money makes you a slave. Researching anything won’t prove that. I was just asking why that is your opinion.
