Many Light Bulb Articles
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Having read some articles in this text for class, I came across some readings that opened my mind to new ideas that I never considered. For example, I never considered myself to be a religious person because I didn't want to be told how to live my life. However, after I read Loy's article in the text, I discovered that I did buy into a religion called market capitalism, and that I didn't think completely for myself, as I had previously thought. Unconsciously, market capitalism was telling me how to live (by keep working), how to percieve the world (by being competitive), and how much I was humanly worth (by the amount of money I made). I'm not saying that market capitalism is bad because it is the livelihood for many people. I'm just saying that I can now acknowledge the influence that market capitlism has had on my life and many others. This text has many eye opening articles, and some of your light bulbs may get lit too.
