Capitalism still has it fluctuations,groans, booms and busts
Just like the free market of the ancient world had to contend
with well before Christianity.

Take Pagan Roman Republic/Empire for example..
They had;
- Credit market causing cycles
- private property/enterprise means of production
- free market supply and demand industry
- global market
- active labor market
- contracts with penalties written into law.
- banking

And modern cap. stems from the enlightenment
period... ie: applying natural scientific law which is
exemplified by Adam Smiths work. /with cap. being
built around such a rational framework.
