How do you know

… that religion is a commodity and ideally suited for commercialization?

When you get a brochure in the mail from one of the Big Banks and on opening it starts up Händel’s Hallelujah chorus. :slight_smile:
Oh yes and what is the jubilation all about? A savings account that earns 2.75% interest with an investment of as little as $5000!

I guess hymns will be next.

HJ,
with inflation at around 5% and negative growth, one would be better off getting value for his money now by spend, spend, spend. Now might be a good time to get the new GM motor vehicle you always wanted, or maybe a new home in a suburb full of vacated/repossessed homes. In reality, the cynical view might be that it was actually those who saved their money who are responsible for the current crisis, as it was those savings that the banks of the world lent to those who were unable to pay off a home loan, but still received the credit. If we did not save then no money to fund the credit-based trouble we are in now.

In so far as your bank literature,  maybe a video of Dante's Inferno would be included.

Tim,

Don’t be ridiculous!:smiley: I want and need a Regner LiveSteam RhB G 3/4. :lol: :lol: :wink: And I’m in luck, I’ll turn 65 next year and that will be my birthday present, so help me the creatures in the garden! (Misty and Duchess)

Oh BTW on that literature, SWMBO has designs for it already. One of them will be the Hallelujah-Train, with the sound module being actuated as the slack is picked up.
I guess she’s picked up a thing or two in the ten+ years we’ve been together. :smiley: :wink: :smiley:
