314 CHRISTIANIZING THE SOCIAL ORDER the Church. The State has also made Business tolerable by pulling a few of the teeth and shortening the tether of greed. Thus moral forces generated outside of Capitalism have invaded its domain and supplied the moral qualities without which it would have collapsed. But capitalistic business in turn is invading the regenerate portions of- the social order, paralyzing their activities, breaking down the respect for the higher values, desecrating the holy, and ...in- vading God's country. 1 Life is holy. Respect for life is Christian. Business, setting Profit first, has recklessly used up the life of the workers, and impaired the life of the consumers whenever that increased profit. The life of great masses has been kept low by poverty, haunted by fear, and deprived of the joyous expression of life in play. 2 Beauty is a manifestation of God. Capitalism is ruth- less of the beauty of nature if its sacrifice increases profit. When commerce appeals to the sense of beauty in its prod- ucts, beauty is a device to make profit, and becomes mere- tricious, untrue, and sometimes corrupts the sense of beauty.
