"perfect competition" is a market structure in which there are many sellers, each selling an identical product (a buyer has no reason to choose one over the other). In a perfectly competitive market, sellers are price takers and all end up selling at exactly the same price, and each firm can sell as much as it wants at that price. So my question is: if all these sellers are selling exactly the same thing at exactly the same price, by what definition of the word "competition" are they competing? presumably, sellers compete for customers, but if they are all selling as much as they want at a fixed price, and buyers can't distinguish between products, how is that competition?

According to The Case for Faith, communism is the most powerful form of atheism on earth. Nevermind the fact that communism, blind faith in and subservience to the collective, is exactly the same as christianity--blind faith in and subservience to god. Since only the object of blind devotion (society or god) differs between communism and christianity, any evils of communism will necessarily be evils of christianity as well. But who cares about consistency?

our author, apparently a journalist, starts off chapter 1 with a good, solid, misplaced modifying phrase. good job.

"As an idealistic young reporter fresh out of journalism school, one of my first assignments at the Chicago Tribune was to write a thirty-part series in which i would profile destitute families living in the city."

apparently his first assignment was an idealistic young reporter fresh out of journalism school. kinky.

In the preface to The Case for Fatih, which i'm sure is a fabulous piece of literature, the following quotes appear.

Christian theism must be rejected by any person which even a shred of respect for reason. - George H. Smith, atheist

Christian faith is not an irrational leap. Examined objectively, the claims of the Bible are rational propositions well supported by reason and evidence. - Charles Colson, Christian (emphasis mine)

let me add my own quote:
Faith: Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.
- Webster's dictionary.
