Re: Rome Against Protestantism's Capitalism

Anyway, here's a book by a Catholic writer denouncing Capitalism as the invention of Protestantism Catholicism, Protestantism and Capitalism which the author describes as inimical to the gospel of Jesus Christ because it supposedly fosters "greed." (put "greed" in the search box for the book at Amazon)
A strawman, the book cited does not have "Imprimatur" which means it is neither approved or sanctioned by the Catholic Church. Just some screwball's opinion.
It would be like me pointing out that the antisemite Luther, Jim Jones, Joe Smith and Faith are all Protestants so Protestantism is a religion of bigots, crazies, delusional people who get gold tablets from angels, and ignorant people who give religion, conservatism, gun ownership and the practice of geology a bad reputation.
What sect of Protestantism are you a member of? I need to know as in 63 years I've never run across a Protestant who had so many illogical ideas totally unconnected to reality.
