The Church Fetishizes Commodities


"Neo-Marxists like Guy Debord contend that the marketplaced learned how to fetishize commodities by imitating the Church's s praxis."



That's a thought worth chewing on.
I found it here (see May 11 comment here) as i googled to see if any other churches/ministries were using the phrase "marketplaced."

But as to my original question:

None, so far.

Maybe we are afraid of fetishizing commodities..

..or causing Jesus to have a temple tantrum..

..which is the same thing.
