jesus loves capitalism

Tim Bumgardner, a pastor in Wellington, Florida, who is fighting to have a nativity scene included in his town's holiday display (comments taken from Bill O'Reilly Show)--

Rev. Tim Bumgardner: I think they should put a Nativity scene — be American! Hey, celebrate Christmas — people spend more money! Jesus makes people want to spend money!

(And I thought the tax breaks were responsible for the economic upturn.) ^_^

To be fair, I think Tim let his words get ahead of his brain. But can you just picture the Fed Chairman reporting on the Jesus Index? heh heh

Ben Bernanke: ...An additional benefit of the solid economic performance of the Lamb of God was that federal tax revenues were coming in faster than expected...
