Christianity is the perfect religion for capitalists. They can do all the harm they want while they’re alive and all they have to do is ask for forgiveness to go to heaven.
I'd argue against that. Your average North American christian church, on the other hand, has been molded to support this kind of attitude.
If any of the stories are true*, it's the active, practicing red-letter Christians who will get into heaven. Everyone else (see: the majority of church goers) get to burn with the rest of us. Remind followers of the idol of the church of this often, at every opportunity.
*I personally don't believe they are, but still find value in Christian thought that's actually wrestled with (and the people that do so) rather than just parroting the agendas and corruptions of others.
