Christianity and Capitalism

Christianity keeps splitting into different forms because it is further developing the beliefs of the Christian faith. They branch into different directions because some groups of people have one idea and if other Christians do not agree that this idea resembles Christianity, they either develop their own idea, or keep the same faith that they have currently. That is why there are so many forms of Christianity, from many differing beliefs based on the same set of values. I am not really too sure on what capitalism is exactly. My best guess is that it might mean a free market economy that has some government restrictions (of course making it not truly free) but is not completely ruled by the government. Basically I think it is an economy that is run by the people, but monitored by the government. Maybe???

  1. Is it something about Christianity that allows for that branching? or is it more about the way people are that leads them to do this?
