Quote by Georges Bernanos

Fact is Our Lord knew all about the power of money: He gave capitalism a tiny niche in His scheme of things, He gave it a chance, He even provided a first installment of funds. Can you beat that?

Summary

This quote highlights the belief that even though God gave capitalism a place in the world and acknowledged the power of money, it does not mean that He endorses or favors it above all else. It suggests that God is not inherently against capitalism or wealth accumulation, but rather despises nothing and looks at the intentions and actions of individuals. The quote further speculates that if Judas had used his money for charitable purposes instead of betraying Jesus, his potential contributions to society could have been beneficial for the greater good.
