122: Orthodox Christianity and Capitalism Revisited

June 26, 2009 Length: 51:50

The previous podcast on this subject stimulated comments about whether we covered the bases on this issue fully or dispassionately enough. In this conversation, Fr John Whiteford, (ROCOR) priest and frequent conservative commentator and blogger, and Dr. Amir Azarvan, (ROCOR) layman, political science lecturer, and self-described "social democrat," talk about poverty, the welfare state, whether alms-giving is spiritually effective if government mandated, and the best way to live out the Orthodox Christian life in the world.

"I am listener of Ancient Faith Radio for little over two years now. I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful podcasts you put up throughout the year! They are so very educational and informative and they have and continue to change my life! I started listening to Ancient Faith Radio as a Protestant, and through your ministry, I am now a full member of the Holy Orthodox Church! Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever! "
