description Since this theme has not been widely addressed, it will be necessary to set the framework for thinking about the business world theologically. Could such leaders influence the industry more widely? Since even parents who feel uneasy about current girls' fashions rarely have the strength to resist purchasing them, designers themselves might be encouraged to offer an alternative to tight, midriff-baring clothing. [...]business capitalizes on the fact that people will buy products that they do not need and pay for activities that endanger or even degrade themselves or others, even though that may not seem evident at the time of purchase. Many people find such suits ridiculous because they reveal the degree to which we think we have surrendered our freedom when what we really have surrendered is our responsibility for our own lives. [...]the objection to the notion of Christian moral values being brought to bear in the marketplace ignores the fact that others are already making decisions for us.
