Would Scrooge McDuck become wealthy today?
04/12/24 • 89 min
We're discussing Scrooge McDuck, finances, immigration, Capitalism, and more! Joshua Noel is joined by Brandon Knight to discuss the history of the Disney character, Scrooge McDuck, and the politics around wealth in America! We dive deep into thinking about this character and how Christians should think about Capitalism!
.
Why was Scrooge McDuck so rich? Who are the top 5 richest fictional characters? Was Scrooge McDuck poor as a child? Who is richer Batman or Scrooge McDuck? What is Scrooge's net worth? How did Scrooge make his money? Who is Scrooge McDuck modeled after? Is Scrooge McDuck selfish? How does capitalism relate to Christianity? How did the church respond to capitalism? Does the church support socialism? Is money the root of all evil? We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in the conversation with us on Discord now!

Our show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective. We do not try to put Jesus into all our favorite stories, but rather we try to ask the questions the IPs are asking, then addressing those questions from our perspective. We are not all ordained, but we are the Priests to the Geeks, in the sense that we try to serve as mediators between the cultures around our favorite fandoms and our faith communities.
