On the so-called “free market” and the economic idolatry of the “invisible hand”:

“The alcoholic with plenty of money and access to an open liquor store may, in a purely negative sense, be free from anything interfering with getting what he wants; but in reality he is profoundly unfree and cannot free himself.”

William T. Cavanaugh, Being Consumed, p. 8.

About Me

I'm a layman in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. I live in a west suburb of Chicago with my wife and two young children.

Creation, Fall, Redemption, Glorification

I who erewhile the happy garden sung,

By one man’s disobedience lost, now sing

Recovered Paradise to all mankind,

By one man’s firm obedience fully tried

Through all temptation, and the Tempter foiled

In all his wiles, defeated and repulsed,

And Eden raised in the waste wilderness.

John Milton, Paradise Regained
